The NCAA games are so incredibly difficult to bet on live. They are always on Negotiate. Even during halftime.

Unfortunately, we don't always have in-play odds for these games, sorry.

We hope to increase coverage in the future.

Extremely frustrating and not worth having to continually refresh to see if there is a line up!!

Hi Grumpster,

Thanks for your suggestion. It's a nice idea and we will consider it.

It's true that there aren't many realistic options to chose from in the Soccer prediction game, but the advantage to this is that almost always there is a winner.

In the Ice Hockey prediction game, you can predict a score that was already picked by another member.

Simultaneously, we also run the Basketball and American Football prediction games, where there are more scores to chose from and as a result less winners and bigger prizes.

So we've got 4 different difficulty levels covered, from easy to difficult these are Soccer, Ice Hockey, American Football and Basketball.

The soccer game would still be easy and there'd still always be a winner, it just wouldn't be a case of who can post quickest. There'd be some luck and good fortune in it.

DirectBet,

Your soccer prediction & ice hockey prediction games get overrun with answers and usually ends in players guessing ridiculous scorelines because there's nothing to guess left. This is because the very nature of soccer & ice hockey leave only really 8-10 results to actually pick from per game, at the very most.

Why don't you guys introduce a tiebreaker for these games, "time of first goal". In addition to posting the scoreline you think, you will also post a minute of the game for the first goal.

This might increase you guys' workload a little bit as you'd have to check through and see who's prediction was closest, but it'd certainly make for a more fun game & one that lots of people can play instead of it just being "who can guess the likely scores fastest".

Just a suggestion.

Hey, I placed a bet on your site:
transaction ID: fb5cb60247b67560f2a0a760bec82f90705cf140f6705da9810d942fe4dd36fb

It's showing the confirmed are 1.01; however, the previous bets are showing the odds are 1.11. I am unsure how the confirmed odds dropped that much when every other sports book is showing 1.1 or 1.2.

Please get back to me, thanks. For this game, I have placed around 8-10 BTC (to confirm my identity). Thanks again.

EDIT: Your site is showing that the current odds are 1.09. Just wondering, is this glitch....

this is normal thing if it is live betting, the odds can either drop or increase depending on the game, if you wish to get confirmed at 1.11 odds, then you should use flexible odds at 1.11

Your bet will be confirmed once the odds hit 1.11, if it never hit 1.11 after game ended, it will later be refunded to you

they will get back to you , they got a great support

Hey,

Thanks for the response. You're right, however the odds for this game has never dropped below 1.08 on any online sports book. It just doesn't make sense for a game like this either for the odds to go that low.

They e-mailed me back saying they are correcting the odds. You were right, the support here is awesome!

Usually bets are graded very quickly after events have concluded, but I have an outstanding wager. Are there any issues going on right now with the site?

update: thank you DirectBet it was settled. Usually do asian handicap wagers take longer to grade for soccer?

Yes sometimes Soccer Asian Handicap bets take longer than usual to settle (an hour or two instead of a few minutes).

maybe you need to realize that none of us have any idea what goes on behind the scenes at directbet. there is NOTHING that prevents them from altering the hidden secret.

ever wonder why your bigger bets seem to lose more?

Read the link. The secret is hashed and presented to you when you order your bet. When you click "place bet" and are given the address to send to, this is when the secret is created. So it's created before you even send funds. Lookout for the hashed secret ID next time.

There clearly is prevention from them altering the secret, they are the biggest bitcoin book for a reason and some of the most knowledgeable people on provable fairness here at BCT have evaluated their site long & hard and found no problems.

Further, there is nothing that prevents you from creating (or changing) the "secret" after the blockchain ID is generated.

Maybe you need to actually read the page that DirectBet linked you to:

Quote from: DirectBet.eu

Obviously we can not reveal the secret before the deck is shuffled because this will allow you to know in advance the outcome of the game. Therefore, we scramble the secret in a special technique called hashing using SHA256 cryptographic algorithm and present the hashed secret in the Bet Status page. The only way to reproduce the hashed secret is by hashing the original secret. Later on, after the game is over, we will reveal the original secret used, and you will be able to hash it yourself and verify that the result is identical to the hashed secret presented to you before the game. This will prove that we did indeed used the secret that was designated to your bet.

Found out the hard way how this site makes money!!! Careful on the big bets they take an exceptionally long time to "process".

All-In Poker Flips is provably fair. What Provably Fair means is that there is no way we can cheat you by picking cards to make you lose. The shuffle of the deck are completely random and you can verify that after the completion of the game.

In the following link we explain how the deck is shuffled and how you can verify that it is provably fair :

http://www.directbet.eu/Rules.cshtml#AllInPoker

Please review the information there and let us know if you have any questions or concerns.

You don't have to take my word for it. I suggest that you consult with independent 3rd parties and reputable members of this forum who understand in provably fairness. Send them to the link above and they will confirm to you that there is absolutely no way that we can influence the shuffle of the deck.

As to why your bet was not processed immediately, that's because for security reasons, our automated betting system first waited for your initial bet transfer to have 1 confirmation before dealing the cards. The delay has nothing to do with the outcome of the bet. Once you have a longer betting history with us, this delay will no longer happen.

Computers cannot generate random numbers.
