What all are your considerations before picking your go to sportsbook?

[ethereumhunter]

A reputable sportsbook is a must. Not having too strict KYC might be a consideration in making a sportsbook list, so you should ask the support service about withdrawal limits that don't require KYC.

A support service can help with any problems quickly, although sometimes it takes time to solve them. It doesn't take long to process withdrawal transactions. Often gives bonuses to bettors but this is not too important and if they don't give it too often, this is also okay. You can check on @Peeps Place lists to find out or make your own sportsbook lists.

Casino scams are becoming more common by the day, consequently it is critical to understand the processes in order to follow the appropriate paths in casino gambling. However, it is difficult to distinguish between a legitimate and a scam casino because they both have similar features and attract internet visitors; the best thing to do is to take precautions when engaging on these sites. Bonuses are the characteristics that entice gamblers to visit a casino website. Who doesn't want to earn bonuses on games? It is critical that gamblers are satisfied in all circumstances, and this should be a focus for these casino sites as well.

Casino fraud will continue to exist at any time because the casino business is a very promising business so that it is used by a group of irresponsible people to take a number of profits quickly by setting up a scam casino.
We can see first and try it with a relatively small amount of money after getting the bonus to be sure that the casino that is being used is not a scam casino.
Apart from that, we also have to see who is promoting the casino because if a casino that is well established and good will always be promoted by trusted people.
But in this forum there are many trusted and reputable casinos that we can use so we don't need to try other casinos that are still relatively new or don't have trust or reputation.

When I'm looking for a gambling site to gamble with, I make sure they have a good reputation in the community that I can verify. A good example is in Bitcointalk, so if they have an ANN thread here and there aren't many complaints about that site, and the ANN thread is active with posters interacting, then for me, that's a good sign that the gambling site takes care of their gamblers.

To be specific, what I want to see on a gambling site is that they process withdrawals quickly and credit deposits promptly. Additionally, their support should be active in addressing concerns.

[vennali]

Thank you all for the suggestions. I will get to work now and start preparing the list of sportsbooks that are active on bitcointalk and do my due diligence in research with respect to the categories that I'm going to tabulate. Will definitely add KYC as a category. There are some good suggestions in there but quite a few of them could be taken in as an opinion instead of cold hard facts. Since opinions on certain things like "How's the UI, etc" differ from person to person, I will keep it out of the categories. Maybe in the future, I could add a column of my review on the sportsbook or a few remarks about them.

Edit: Note that I'm focusing only on Sportsbook aspects and won't be covering casinos that do not have sportsbooks along with them. I personally am interested in sportsbooks, so, will stick to that. Also, the list will be huge and harder to maintain if I add casinos as well.

Long ago, I had created a list of sportsbooks with presence on bitcointalk along with a few categories to help fellow bitcointalk members look through them and decide on which sportsbook to choose. That list has been outdated for a while and I think it could be improved upon. Want to put some more effort in and work on it, in the later half of this week and weekend. I'd like to recreate a list with up to date information. Please do contribute on what categories would you like to see to compare sportsbooks.

Here's the old list

The most important thing for me when choosing a sportbook is a good reputation and has been around for a long time which has been acknowledged by many people and I agree with several forum members who say choosing a sportsbook that allows their country.
Because this is also very important if you bet on a sportsbook that doesn't allow our country, of course when you get a big win wanting to withdraw funds will be a big problem because you are in a restricted country zone.

Yes, in regard to UI as there are different perspectives among the gamblers and it's really a self explanatory fact that they have to choose or to put this thing into considerations, I believe that it's more n how trustable the site or the sport-house will be and how they handle the client in terms of real-time supports and the competitive odds that they have inside the house, plus the perks and wide scopes of available sports and places that they can cover.

One-stop place where you can sort all those games that you know and wanted to bet with, just an opinion, but the focus is on the reputations and with how the team handles their clients.

Gambling sites that require KYC are strict with it, they are not strict when someone register and deposit into their gambling account, but they become strict if you win and want to withdraw.

If a gambling site is not a KYC gambling site, they may have a rules that, no KYC only applies to certain amount of money won that the punter wants to withdraw.

What I mean is that a no KYC gambling site may not have strict rules, but those KYC gambling sites have it.

[Helena Yu]

First, it must be popular and reputable enough, it's stupid if someone want to gamble on unknown site since the risk of getting scammed is high.

Then the other criteria is high odds, interesting promotion, many choice of events and betting option, etc.

I think sportsbet.io seems to be a best choice of sportsbook because they have all of it, however Betnomi have a lot events you can gamble. But I choose sportsbet.io since it's more well rounded sportsbook.

When we are talking about KYC requirements in gambling, they don't play with such neither do they take it with a levity hand because it's part of their policy, especially for those gambling games that requires KYC procedures, except if the gambling site is not such that requires KYC, but they don't take KYC with less strictness for their majority ones ad it's better to have this in mind that they will never come down to your own taste of requirements if not complying to theirs.

A support service can help with any problems quickly,

The most annoying thing with the gambling site support a d assistance service is that they have a poor system of administration when it comes to customers service, they are not that regular in attending promptly as requested by gamblers whenever they are in need of their services, others cab learn and improve on this.

Are there bookmakers now that definitely do not require KYC, even after a big win?

If you are pertaining to a Centralized Bookmaker then all of them will ask KYC regardless if win huge amount that’s what their license requirements for them to operate legally on different country.

Your best chance to find a casino that don’t ask KYC are those real decentralized sportsbook or a scam casino that offers no KYC bullshit then later on seized your balance for whatever reason. But if you are playing on casino with license then KYC is always a must.

I am not sure what you consider big, but some Gosus I know play "big" (with big deposits/withdrawals) at Stake and BC without KYC. In my opinion that "big" is everything above $5k... I guess even that amount is huge for many of us.

Before I choose a sportsbook or casino, I always check if it's BTCGosu approved. Almost 3 years now, without any serious issues, and those little things I had (mostly my mistakes) were solved. I also don't like KYC and after many years of playing in many popular casinos not even one of them asked me to do one.

I've also seen gamblers that still haven't received their KYC request from stake, I guess that casinos like this has a criteria in requesting a KYC from gamblers. Above $5k is big for me knowing that I personally haven't bet that kind of amount on a single bet. If you don't want to submit a KYC on a casino, You can try the casino mentioned above since as far as I know they don't collect KYC for no reason. Just follow their rules and you should be good to go. It's not an assured advise but taking a chance by choosing them at least there's no guarantee that they will collect your identification as soon as you withdraw.

We can find out about this from this forum where there are friends who will give their reviews so this makes us alert and we don't need to use the casino to bet. The casino should say upfront when people want to register that their casino requires KYC before depositing money so people can choose to continue or another casino.

But some casinos are not as strict about implementing the rules about KYC, as you said and I think we can play at casinos like that. Even if we win big, the casinos can ask or ask us to do KYC. And as long as the casino is reputable, we can live with that.

I have looked for many casinos that do not have the KYC requirement, but it is very difficult, because now they have many things that they can have, but the casinos that I have found are not very reliable, apart from the fact that they are not here in the forum nor do they have any facet trustworthy, but reputation for me is the most important thing in a casino, whenever we play we have the full conviction that if we win we must withdraw our money in complete peace of mind, and that is where the problem lies, because when it does not happen, they start to look for excuses and bad times begin for the players, and that is something we have to avoid.

If you lose then you never have to go through KYC. If you win, even very small amounts, you may have to go through KYC. Look for books without unless you are a lifetime loser than you don't have to worry.

[ImThour]

My primary consideration is no need for KYC to deposit or withdraw any amount of Crypto/BTC before picking my sportsbook to gamble my money away.
Other than that, easy to use platform, I don't like advanced panels or User Interface which is too intriguing. I wouldn't go around rating casinos or sportsbooks.

Here's the old list

There are alot of factors to consider when choosing a sportbook to bet on and I want to make one point very clear that I don't like new casinos except they have some huge bonuses and promotional offers and most times, because of this act of mine in gambling casinos, most times I have to see myself as a bonus chaser and that's he reasons,  I don't ever get involved with  new casinos.
But there are factors to consider when trying out a new casino includes
1. Eases of payment either deposit  or withdrawal and the moment a casino makes payment difficult for me especially  on the first attempt, it might be the last time for me.

2. Fees on transaction  is a very paramount factor of consideration and tye lesser the fee, the more chances of consideration.

3. Site rating is another factor to consider as most times, their ratings are based on their performance.

And the list continues.

[paxmao]

Yes dude, you may also want to consider aspects such as customer support, game variety, user interface, security measures, and licensing and regulatory compliance. By evaluating all these factors together and testing the waters carefully, you can make a more informed decision when selecting a sportsbook or casino that aligns with your preferences and priorities.

[PX-Z]

A decent reputation should be the first priority, my favorite games/sports to bet should be there, decent odds and lastly deposit options, altcoins with lower fees should be accepted not just bitcoin knowing some alts csn be confirmed in just a matter of seconds or few minutes.

Nothing i can think yet for others, i dont care about kyc, i can play a kyc required or not sportsbook afterall.
