How do you know how to trust online sportsbooks?

[Ryker1]

Hello everyone, I've been using online sportsbooks for a while now, but I wanted to know how do you know how to trust those sites? What do you look for in them, what are some red flags for you, that kind of stuff. Hope it makes sense and please share what are your favorite online sportsbooks.

We will only believe that a sportsbook casino site is trusted when we see that it is licensed.Once the sports book casino site is licensed we will find it in the casino site web series.Then people will talk good about it and if it is popular among all, we will consider it trusted.

Well I have heard a lot of licensed gambling casinos that have been turned into scams or have fraudulent activities --like not paying their users when they withdraw their money or having a problem with the reward and bonuses. I think that is not how to measure trusted gambling casinos. It will determine by the lenght of their service and the feedback from the users because trust will gain in just a single day, it should matter in months or years, perhaps. For me how to trust them is just there should be feedback from the community that uses them, individual feedback is good than the review gambling casino which is the review written by the author while in the community it is from individual of them who tried gamble to that casino.

It's easy to check the feedback if it's coming from this forum, if they have an ANN thread the better because not only you will read the feedback from the community, you can also see what kind of gambling site they are by just clicking on their profile.

It creates good things when great people gathers in one forum like this. Checking everything will be easy and different opinion will be provided.
If it's a good sports bookie I can say Sportsbet did a pretty great job at being one with high reputation in this forum. There's no doubt as I have tried it too and it's not just the service but also the features of their gambling site. UI is not a sore in the eye and options like same game parlays that cannot be seen at other sites.
This forum is a good starting point for every sports betting site. Country restrictions should also be checked.

This is misconception, gambling licenses that many online sportsbook used e.g. curacao license didn't protect the users if the sportsbook turn become scam. It's just make the sportsbook is more professional since they're spent some money and follow the regulation. After all, the reputation and trustworthy the sportsbook is depend on the site itself. I've remembered 1xshit have a gambling license before, but as we know 1xshit is a scam site and it prove a casino with license can't be consider as legit casino.

Gambling license shouldn't really be the basis of trust. It should be based on the website's performance and honest feedback of the players. While license could be somehow an assurance, it doesn't really guarantee that the website will not scam its players. Just like you mentioned, there are existing sites not just the one you're pertaining to, that has a license but ends up scamming players.

I guess it's really the way how they handle the issue. So for the newbies, before trusting a website, make sure to check the scam and accusations board to check if they have pending issues. Unresolved issues just mean that they are not really good in addressing the problems of their clients so expect a bad after sales.

Exactly, many times I've heard about a lot of sportsbook site that has scammed players, also if they had a license. About that I've also heard that you can obtain a Curaçao license in really easy way, so, it isn't a necessary

requirement for repute a casino trusted or not. What repute casino trusted is his history of payments and his support.

I have always given myself that trust here in Bitcointalk with respect to the casinos they give them because they comply with the deposits and retreats without problems, and I have seen that the members with more power leave their review in the profiles, for me that is enough Because they review every detail and for those who do not know how to handle many details for security, I have also seen that there are casinos that have no need for registration but are working like this, but I have doubts, there are licenses so that they can allow casinos without registration, as well as those who do not ask for the famous KYC which is a reason for debates.

[usekevin]

Many trusted people promoting of some good gambling websites,you need look such things in bitcointalk.In forum trusted people captured the website which is not real.And the website which is stole people funds.So this forum mostly promote the good website for the casino.

As long as we can get a list of trusted sportsbook casino sites from this forum, we should be fine and I believe this forum has provided a list of those casinos. The sportsbook casino site here seems to have a license already and has a good reputation, making it easier for us to choose the sportsbook casino site. We can also directly register and play there while looking at other gambling games. But please be careful if you find a sportsbook casino site out there and it's not reviewed yet on this forum because we don't know how good the casino is.

This is absolute truth about sportsbooks using cryptocurrency. We normally don't review, or, discuss, fiat sportsbooks here, unless they are starting accepting BTC, ETH etc, but crypto sports betting is covered better than anywhere else on this forum. It would be very unwise to start using a crypto sports betting site without consulting this forum first.

Well, I believe that some variables can be analyzed and this is important!!

I believe the reputation is essential these days, speed/time in withdrawals and also quantity (fast, slow etc). Customer contact support (chat bot? online? email?)
And I also believe that some reviews are also interesting to analyze.

If the sportsbook is filled with positive reviews, then that’s one thing that we should consider. Another one is having a fast payout as some sportsbook have issues because they tend to control the withdrawals. And of course, it’s own customer service as it gives a lot of reasons for the players to keep coming back. However, it’s always best to experience it on your own, as some reviews may only get paid just to attract more potential players.

The first step to dictate a reputable online bookie is through the way they handle problems and their odds system, this is the two major things that warrant and miltivate me to any casino. Most sports bookies cannot handle these two important aspects of the business that will earn them a good reputation.

Sometimes you also need to see who are those people gives their feedbacks because sometimes there are casino thread creator pays a thread bumper just to show to the forum users that they have relevance and their casino is good according to their paid reviews. But threads here is really a good reference its just we need to scan those reviews if that one came from legitimate people who test their casino and not those fake nor spamming users.

I personally wouldn't worry about such cases. bitcointalk is not kind of site where an unfair review of a gambling site can go unnoticed and just hang there forever. Write such a review and a massive backlash is unavoidable. Overall, it will do no good to a site that wanted to misrepresent itself.

Agreed!
Bitcointalk is not that kind of a forum. If someone is caught doping such things then apart from the backlash they might also get banned or might get an instant negative trust for scamming. There have been instances in the past so there are a lot of mechanism in place here. I would always believe on the feedback left on the respective threads by forum user.

[coupable]

I have my own view on this subject that may not be the same as the opinions of the majority on how to choose a sportsbet/casino platform.
It is customary on the Bitcointalk forum that trusted members are a guarantee for us to join this or that casino, meaning that they facilitate the selection process when they support certain projects. Most of the successful projects were supported by a trusted member of the site's team, or who tried it and provided a guarantee of its effectiveness and credibility.
Of course, this does not provide a one hundred percent guarantee, as the evaluation of that member could be wrong, as happened recently with Bitlucy that was backed by a reputed member, but it proved to be a scammy project and that member unfortunately lost its good reputation after causing users to lose thousands of dollars of money which they could not withdraw.

Sites that have a special identity and whose transactions are very fast and trustworthy can only be trusted. Those who engage in large-scale activities, I believe only in those who deal honestly and maintain confidentiality. KYC is a means of protecting a user's privacy.

Look at the reviews on different websites? They maybe fake reviews, but you can also check the forum. If they have an announcement thread, see how active they are and what people are saying about them. Look for any scam accusation against them and if those accusation were solved or not. Don't join a random new casino. Always go for casinos/sportsbook that has been around for a while. Others that are saying to look at things like withdrawal speed and live support doesn't realize that even if they have all those features, they can still scam people.

We have a big role here and that is to give our honest feedback on the gambling sites that we are using so people will know if the gambling site can be trusted or not. However, reputation are build overtime, and there are gambling sites that are good now but overtime they'll turn into a trash gambling site and will just scam people, so we have to be aware of that too and don't put our money in one basket, more gambling sites to trust the better IMO.

I agree with you we have a big role, unfortunately many participants of the section are not real gamblers and are just here to reach their mandatory quota of gambling posts, and don't make reliable feedbacks. I also agree reputation is not sufficient to blindly trust any casino, as you say any renowned casino can turn into a scammy one. Because owners have changed, the casino is losing money or just because it doesn't care anymore to its reputation as it uses to do. During bear markets like the one we are encountering people have to be more vigilant.

If you are a smart gambler, you will know if a poster is just making some post to fulfill his quota, so IMO it's not a problem. Besides, negative feedback is more noticeable in the eyes of the gamblers than positive, so as long as the gambling site has no serious negative feedback, that means they are a good place to gamble with.

Checking their reputation is a big help. It is one of the steps you need to do before making yourself play with their service. Find out what issues does their players had encountered from playing on their site. Find reviews. Look also for accusation threads with strong proofs included.  

Right now I do not have any favorite sportsbook as I don't really gamble that much in relation to sports.

Also checking the reviews . . . and the Customer care department and RTP is also important. 
there are many factors also involved - which are important and it comes with experience and time. .
