What are your thoughts on Fairlay? Seems like it has the potential for the best odds?

DirectBet uses the "back" odds from Betfair adding more take out. There is a minimum amount needed at Betfair for DirectBet to put up a line. Many times there aren't lines up on one side or both since lines are dependent upon lines at an exchange. The lines at DirectBet aren't competitive in American markets.

With deposit books when a bet is placed , the player gets notice if the bet is accepted or rejected in a short period of time. With DirectBet confirmation of accepting/rejecting a bet isn't made until the time the money leaves the players wallet until it reaches DirectBet's wallet.

Most of the time this is immediate but there is also the possibility of not knowing if a bet is accepted or rejected for an hour or more. While this hasn't happened for a while, a few months ago confirmations were delayed on a daily basis. Most of the time it was due to the site going up and down, but it can be from any delay in DirectBet receiving a bet after coins leaving the player's wallet.

DirectBet once had the advantage of being a non-deposit book but the advantage no longer exists with the speed in which deposits and withdrawals occur at other books. Some have instant deposit/withdrawals.

Books rated "B-" and higher are recommended books. DirectBet isn't capable of meeting the recommended status due to the system in which they use to confirm/reject bets. There should never be extended delays. One delay is one too many.

Very interesting, so no point to rate DirectBet now?

You might want to update about BTCBOOK about being a confirmed scam in the first post. Also any reason not to consider Directbet under the A or B graded book ?
One risk about sportsbooks is that they can scam for the funds but since they offer instant payouts after game, I believe that alone is a big step towards developing a good trust.

Thanks for the update on BTCBOOK.

IMO DB's odds are too lower than nitrogen and cloudbet, but higher than betcoin, deposits and withdrawals are fast, if betcoin can be B+, rate B- or B or B+ for directbet is OK, although I never gambled there before, I still recommend nitrogen and cloudbet have the highest odds in the industry.

AFAIK, directbet doesn't have a license, that's why it is not A or B, and the odds there are very terrible.   Angry  Deposits and withdrawals are very fast that's true, but real sports bettor should care about the odds as priority.

That is not the reason. directbet has some issue with this guy before and he will never raise directbet's rating over C. Believe it or not this is more of a biased rating I think , just because someone crossed your path and you decided to put them off the list. Directbet is absolutely minimum of B, even some crap site got B in his rating

Most of them are scams,  i've been scammed more than twice, 

Its unlikely you would have been scammed if the site was rated well on this list. If you risk your BTC on sites that aren't much popular and aren't rates well, then it is very much possible to get scammed. But with the top sites its highly unlikely.

Sounds great but its more even better asking people that has the ability to give me more knowledge or information before i spend my btc. This thread is very helpful to newbies like myself thank you

I only have a Nitrogen account but i dont have yet a good information to use to make me  trust my btc to bet to them,  since i love betting on games or sports,  any advise?

You can trust the top sites like Nitrogen without much problem as they have developed trust over time and its  much better  for them to run fairly than scamming for BTC. Without trusting a website or a service,  you will never be able to use your bitcoin.

What scam sites are you talking about? Please warn us so we can avoid scam sites, thanks.

I usually bet on betcoinsports, no problem at all, once I found a bug there, they refund my 0.5 btc loss on their sportsbook.  Wink

I have bet at their site many times, I have never had an issue. However, note that their withdrawals aren't instant, the withdraws need approval.

Whats best features they have?  That other doesnt have

Odds are not too bad, only a few games have below average odds. As for license, not a lot of other sites have it either. I know Cloudbet claims to have a license of some place, but that hardly makes a different and is only for name sake.
