How much do you guys keep in your accounts?
With the death of Bitbook I'm not sure I would trust a bitcoin bookie with anything over 1BTC.
1) IMO on the heels of Gox Goxing, it's important to think of sportsbooks like an exchange - in that you should use it for betting, but not as a wallet.
2) The beauty of bitcoin vs. traditional sports betting is that when you won in the old online sportsbooks, you would be tempted to bet more because it would be a long time until they could send you the money. With bitcoin & sports sites like cloudbet and nitrogen and formerly bitbook (and I know some of the others do this as well, but I'm pretty busy w/SwC & my baby & the btc sports space is exploding so I simply haven't hit them all - and if any offer NCAA ingame (hint hint) you can get my action starting Thursday
you can simply cash out after every game / day / hour / whatever. Simply instantly deposit later if you'd like to bet again.
3) jeremy - how long you been using casinobitco.in ? seems like if cloudbet or nitrogen offered me similar odds I'd fire with them. Also, if anyone reading this regularly bets sports on some other bitcoin site I have never heard of please speak up - it seems that from the lag between NFL and NCAA tourney time (the only 2 sports I really care to bet) a bunch of new books popped up, some of them really impressive.
WHERE IS My NCAA INGAME NOW THAT BITBOOK IS DONKDOWN?
1) Absolutely agree and to think otherwise questions ones intelligence.
2) These sportsbooks are going under so regularly these days it's a challenge with trust. However, since one of the advantages of wagering with BTC is the FREE deposit and withdraws, I usually keep ZERO BTC in any book that isn't a public company. Deposit and withdraw as needed. Such is the case when I wager at Nitrogen. Not a shot at Nitrogen AT ALL; great operation and people in their community. I just like to wager with the best odds available
3) Started using CasinoBitco.in when the conference tournaments began. I made it an effort to shop the best lines, best customer service, and most trust worthy place to wager. CasinoBitco.in will get my action and my friends' action during the Big Dance.
I'm with you on the In Game. I made some decent coin taking those large In Game Money Line spreads (gotta love em) that Bitbook was offering.
The next book to offer it will blow the competition out of the water!
