Hey DB, Can you guys put the different tennis events in their own respective sub headings, it's getting too crowded there and that would make it easier to search and bet.

As a siggestion, you can also try out just looking the event start times and find those bets through the time, rather than searching them through the list. It makes it much easier.

With the exception of yes/no propositions, I have never seen a sportsbook put up only one side of an event for wagering. DB seems to do this on a daily basis.

This.

It's not an error from the "odds provider" (who says they even use one? unlikely that they do since their odds are worse than any other book) and never has been.

"You can bet on other sites" is irrelevant. This is about the ethics / fairness / scruples of DB and the obvious fact is they are unethical / unfair / unscrupulous and we're here to remind people of that.

PS: I know you guys (arallmuus, Josepht, bitbaby) don't really care and just want to sig advertise, but if you continue to drag on the conversation we'll just keep responding too and remind people that DB is primarily a trap and only secondarily a contributor to the BTC sportsbook community.

DB is literally just collecting cash from suckers with no chance of losing.

If you actually read thoroughly at my last post you could see that they offered USA to win at the Draw No Bet option which means that it could be an error from their odds provider or they are not allowing you to bet on ML . I tend to stick on the error of their odds provider because if they were actually offering a one sided match they they would have probably close down the Draw No Bet options as well to prevent themselves from losing this

Quote from: Josepht on July 06, 2015, 03:25:00 AM

That is most likely because the other event is too likely to happen (with odds < 1.01)

For this case, the match winner is pretty much "determined" already but that should not stop DirectBet from offering the one sided bet. Anyway this could be an error from their odds provider because they offered the Draw No Bet option at the odds of 1.22

Yeah but the 1.22x draw no bet option was pre-match odds..as per the pic shown above I think it was just because that the odds were lesser than 1.01(live) n hence it didnt show up.. But sometimes(not in this case) they do remove odds for one team or the other..( which bugs me a lot) n that happens especially when Im about to bet..! I understand that the odds lock up when there is a event going on( lak a team scored a goal/basket or someone got out).. but Im talking about when the game is going on smoothly..still that happens..! which sucks.. n forces me to bet prematch on the game.! :/

The same tired excuses from DB.

You can call it not fair or scamming or cheating or whatever you want. The point is DB is unscrupulous / shady / unethical and people should know about it.

DB wants to lie and say keep refreshing, temporarily unavailable or whatever but the fact is you could not bet on the winning side for hours and hours. There are very smart people out there who believe that sports results are predetermined and sportsbooks know who will win. If that is indeed the case then DB is literally just collecting cash from suckers with no chance of losing.

First of all it is upto the sportsbook to decide what odds they offer on an event and anybody is free to choose to bet there or not, if a big strong team/player is playing with a not so good/low ranked team/player then it is obvious that the strong side will defo win and therefore on these sort of events you'll most likely won't see any odds for the strong side or they will be too less. There is nothing scammy/shady about it

It also happens sometimes that there is a limit as to how much maximum bets a sportsbook can take on an event for a side and when they reach that limit those odds are no longer provided. I don't think there is anything unfair about this, if you don't like the odds or there are no odds available for a particular event you can bet on other sites.

Tonight is a huge match with USA in the WWC and DB isn't even allowing you to bet on USA in the 90 minute market.

Sometimes a particular selection might be temporary suspended for betting and that's when you don't see it listed. If that happens please check again later.

This bet is now available for LIVE In-Play betting : USA (W) v Japan (W)

Thanks a lot !

All the Best,

Just wanted to follow up on how DirectBet is openly scamming people.

There is a huge difference between not fair and scamming. Basically what they offered is consider as not fair but it is indeed not scamming because you can always make your own decision to not use Directbet to bet for this match. Simply use another site to bet for this match without the need to create a fuss here or atleast try to contact their support beforehand

This is a one sided match and it is pretty much weird, could be an error from their odds provider because they are offering Draw No Bet option at the odds of 1.22.

I just wanted to say that DirectBet is an unethical operation / borderline scam.

As an example they offered live betting on the Toronto Blue Jays / New York Mets game tonight but only accepted bets on Toronto during the game!!! I wanted to bet on the Mets for over an hour during the game and continuously reloaded the page but they never once accepted bets on the winning side.

BTCWagering is a Bitcoin sports player advocate site for over a year and we are working on a new system and interface to rate all of the operations out there. We will most certainly putting in the work to expose DB for what they are - unscrupulous money-grabbers.

Omitting a betting option isn't a scam.
