Sportsbook.io rating and review.
Dude, put some respect on the name, come on, it’s
www.sportsbet.io not sportsbook.io, I’ve played there for years & never had to submit full KYC. I’m just a regular gambler though, I don’t do anything suspicious that would make them suspect money laundering.
Every sportsbook has to protect themselves from collusion, sportsbet.io is no different.
sportsbet.io have a price boost that you can utilise when you place a bet & this actually gives you better margins than all other books.
I don’t feel a C rating is fair really, they’re better than that in my opinion.
Here’s a little something you might find interesting, an AMA with the CEO, something no other rival sportsbook does. He’s a great guy, spending time interacting with genuine sportsbet.io gamblers.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KnWcVEzFA2kThanks for the correction. I see that the video is almost 2 hours. I'll check back in at the forum a little later and will watch the video within a couple of days. I know that there is a one time price boost per day. Do you know the maximum amount that can be wagered or how much the difference is between the normal line and the boosted price?
Criteria used to rate a book.1. Security - getting paid is by far most important.
2. Working with the forum. This is a player's thread and books are held responsible for their actions. Questions are asked of books concerning number of employees, time in business, experience, poster problems, etc. If a book is going to ignore a player's thread, they will be severely downgraded. Most books are very easy to work with.
The following cannot be quantified as to importance since being highly detrimental in one category may supersede other criteria used.3. Poster review - poster review is much more important at bitcointalk than other forums, but other forums are also read. A high review from a new book will weigh less than the review of a book that's been in existence 2+ years.
4. Anonymous - one of the reasons that bitcoin books are used is to stay anonymous. There may be times where it is necessary to question players but it should be a minimum.
5. Margins - If players are going to have a chance to beat a book the margins have to be tight enough to give us that chance. If the margins are larger than -110 (1.91) that's a big blow to a book's rating.
6. Payout speed - If the average is longer than one hour, a book will be downgraded. One hour is sufficient due to possible grading errors. A large book is dealing with a significant amount of money along with a huge player base.
7. Markets - The more betting options, the better.
8. Traffic - time in business along with amount of players that a book has gives us a large sample size.
9. Currencies used - It's easier on the player if we are allowed to deposit and withdraw from alts.
Miscellaneous - Books accepting fiat currencies are omitted from the guide. Other forums are read to make sure the ratings here aren't significantly out of line with the average of other books.

There was an exception made for Sportsbet. Because of multiple poster requests and the fact that Sportsbet can keep balances in BTC, a rating was put up.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KnWcVEzFA2kI listened to part of the video and it's good. Sportsbet is very good with the community and advertising. The problem is with their lines being unbeatable, the confiscations of money without proof as well as not turning over any information asked for pertaining to the $18k confiscation. This makes me very uncomfortable playing there and I wouldn't recommend the book to anyone.
