Directbet is it possible to make parlays on live sports betting...im intrested to know

Just created a random bet on the live tennis 2 result parlay, yeah it is possible
Nice thats great ,gone a try it later on tennis,hope there is lots of options in live betting
and that the odd dosent move much Tongue

Odds seem to be a bit jumpy sometimes, sometimes its good sometimes its bad, if you are sending directly it is less likely to happen, but i have had frequent bets that have been say for example 30 , then send payment and it will give me odds of 34 or 40 or sometimes 28 or 26 or something. I think it makes sense thou live games are always swaying back and forth depending which games they are. It might also just be that it was soccer or that a large amount of bets or singular large bets took place just before i made my bet.

Sometimes the games will say not available anymore, this usually doesn't mean the event has completely disappeared , it usually turns up again on the list of live events a few minutes later, i think from what i have been seeing from watching games as i bet, this usually happens just as an odds changing event happens (sending off, goal or something else that changes the odds quite a lot)

Since this is brought into matter in the others thread, I want a clarification on this matter

Quote
The best part is that your affiliate ID will be stored, so you will keep earning 1% on all future bets placed by your referrals, for life

Does this means that our affiliate id will be stored in your database or that anyone who visit the link through our link will be stored as our referalls? Seems a bit confusing and I might have misinpretreted the meaning of this words .

If it is that the one visited our link will be store for life, how do you store this up?through cookies or the bet payout address ?

I think its stored through bet payout. Since the loyalty points are through bet payout address I would expect that to be the case for referrals as well. But cookies sound more likely, as I have tried using a different browser for a cash back I got from an affliate I signed up under, and he said he didn't see it after I bet through another browser using the same address.

If it is stored through bet payout then it will be likely possible to change our affiliate as we desired just by changing into another bet payout and if it were to stored through cookies than it will be possible as well to change our affiliates just by deleting all our cookies.
That is the main reason I asked this since Directbet claimed that it will be stored for life though.

P.S : I may be wrong on this though

Ok I have a suggestion to make, why don't you add an option on the betting page which would ask the users if they'd like to pay the miner's fee from their winnings, because this Tx: https://blockchain.info/tx/4cdbbee1f8491bb7b80bd996edbff7526bd29a0fad970d40e6d790b3a1aa2e34 has been stuck for 2 hours now and it's really annoying and if it had only like 5k sats more miner's fee it would have gotten confirmed by now.

Thanks for your suggestion, we will consider offering such an option, or pay more fees for smaller payouts.

By the way, sending transactions with 0.0001 BTC fee no longer guarantees that it will confirm fast. You can still wait an hour or two during busy hours.


You maybe right but it does makes the transaction from 'Medium priority' to  'Higher priority' and it may get confirmed faster within the next block than 6 blocks and an added option which a player might/not choose would be really helpful. Thanks for considering it. Smiley

Bet link- http://www.directbet.eu/BetStatus.cshtml?BetID=1HUqkbdmVd88w5Qwi8RV8dDQVw6b1XFXCD

I think in order to cancel a bet you have to give them a signed message from the sending address.

Maybe you guys should be default pay 0.0001 for any amount between 0 and 1 BTC, and charge the amount from the bet the user places. 

As mentioned in my previous post, 0.0001 BTC fee no longer guarantees that it will confirm fast. You can still wait an hour or two during busy hours. For this reason we pay higher fees for bigger payouts that we want to confirm fast, sometimes even more than 0.001 BTC. It's only for the small payouts where the fee is lower.

That being said we will have that reviewed and see if it can be improved.

ThEy deduct 10k satoshi on players winning in the past but i think its not good for promotion that is why they set it too low transaction fee but directbet pays for it and not deducted from players winnings

We never deducted fees for Sport bets winnings.

There was a period of time where we deducted fees for All-In Poker and Direct Dice bets, but currently we cover the fees for these bets as well.

Fees from sportsbet winnings is really below the minimum required or depends on amount of winnings too? I notice on my bets when i win it only have 300+ satoshi transaction fee

For this reason the fee that we pay depends on how busy the network is and the payout amount. We pay much more than 0.0001 BTC in fees for payouts bigger than 0.33 BTC during busy hours so that you get it confirmed instantly. In some cases we pay 1 mBTC or more.

Maybe you guys should be default pay 0.0001 for any amount between 0 and 1 BTC, and charge the amount from the bet the user places. If someone places a bet of 0.001 at 1.1 odds, then that in anyways in not an intelligent way to bet. You could just have the rule of taking the txn fees of 0.0001 irrespective of the bet sizing.
Thats what most of the other gambling sites do.

We explain this in more details on our website :

As soon as the payout is issued, you will see it in your wallet as an unconfirmed transaction.

It is usually a matter of a few seconds or minutes for the payout transaction to confirm, at which point you will be able to spend it.

However, during busy hours, the Bitcoin network priorities transfers based on the fee that is paid to send them. The higher the fees, the faster they will confirm.

The fees that we pay for payouts depend on the payout amount. If your payout is greater than 0.333 BTC, we pay the highest fees to ensure that your payout will confirm as fast as possible, in the very next block or the one right after it (that is, within a few minutes), even during the busiest times.

Payouts smaller than 0.333 BTC are guaranteed to confirm within X blocks, where X is equal to 1 divided by the payout amount (disregarding all digits after the decimal point and not more than 24 blocks).

So for example, if the payout amount is 0.26 BTC, it is guaranteed to confirm within 3 blocks (up to 20-30 minutes at the most busiest times). Payouts smaller than 0.04 BTC are guaranteed to confirm within 24 blocks, which might take up to 3-4 hours during the busiest times.

Note that most of the times, the Bitcoin network is not busy, and all payouts, small or big, are likely to confirm very fast.

How do you switch from Decimal to American odds?

Bottom left at your screen when you open up directbet, you will see that there will be a drop down options for you to switch on either decimal or the american odds. Simply click on that if you wish to change the odds
or if you wish to do your own calculations for the odds than you can try this formula http://www.betsmart.co/odds-conversion-formulas/


for some reason it switched to decimal odds by it self on my browser. Before it use to be on the right hand side by the "Live betting" tab but DB moved it to the bottom now.

thanks alot for letting me know!
