Also another question but why does it seem like all these BTC sportsbook use european odds?  Im only familar with american odds so when i see the european odds, i have to go and type it into a calculator to figure out what 2.08 is equivalent to etc.

I have read a bit of bit coin sportsbooks.  I check and from what i read the main legit sites are


1.  Anonibet
2.  Nitrogensports
3.  Cloudbet
4.  Betcoinsports



I like to bet the american sports only.  Such as MLB, NBA, NFL and NHL.  The sportsbooks that i have had experience with are the offshore books. 


However, when i look at the lines in these books, they are heavily juiced.   I read nitrogensports is a pinnacle clone.. but if thats the case, why is the juice so high?  Example in a baseball game where pinnacle sports or 5dimes which has reduced juice or other books, you have 10 cent lines on the ML and 10 cent lines on the total.


If at pinnacle or 5dimes, you have Seattle -105, Houston will be similarly -105 or so roughly.  If you have a team where they are -170, the other side will probably be -160 or -158 or so.  However if its a book that uses a 20 cent line like bookmaker then it would be +150. 


I looked at a few of these sportsbooks and the juice is very high.  Example i saw a team -168 ML in baseball.  The other side was +135.  Thats a 30 cent line which is ridiculous.  Even the lines in vegas are better.


I did notice that the nfl season, many of these books are -105 or -106 juice.  Thats very good.  However, how can baseball moneyline odds be this high vig?  Even the totals are not that good.  The runlines are even worst.  I mean if you have lines where its +120 one side then -155 the other side, thats a lot of juice.


It doesn't make sense why the juice is so high.  Yes you can bet on games but its going to be very hard to win betting a sport like baseball with that kind of vig. 


Does anyone know if anything will be done soon where the juice gets much better?  Does anyone know how the juice is like for nba/nhl?  From what i see the vig is one of the worst i have ever seen for betting baseball.
