Here's what these fucking crooks do. An example:

Underdog is at 5.0

Favorite is at 1.1


Underdog is losing 65-64.

Underdog scores to make it 67-65.


Directbet (they will blame the odds provider) will do the following.

Immediately lower the odds for the underdog from 5.0 to 3.5 (example - may not be 3.5, but close)

In some instances, they will actually jack up the odds for the favorite from 1.1 to 1.05 (yes - unbelievable, but this happens) before finally resting upon something like 1.15

Explain this:

22:30 Santos Laguna v Monterrey Mexican Primera Division 

Current score = Laguna 3, Monterrey 0

If you are going to offer odds for Monterrey & the draw, you better as fuck offer odds for ALL FUCKING SIDES (365 has laguna @ 1/125 right now).

LIVE !   Match Odds

Santos Laguna @ Negotiate
Monterrey @ 75
The Draw @ 65


GUESS WHAT FUCKER!? YOU'RE GOING TO JAIL FOR TAX EVASION & RUNNING AN ILLEGAL GAMBLING OPERATION! I KNOW YOUR INFO!

@betbitsex :
Have you contacted the support ?
maybe you have input wrong payout address or your transaction didn't get confirmation. The payout made after 1 confirmation.

If you input wrong payout address, they can help you send your winning manually.

Directbet is keeping their cold storage wallet closed so that network can't confirm transactions.

I'm waiting for more than 30 hours for two winning bets.


Both have fees for miners.

I have a few things to say:
1. You're just 15 minutes member of this forum, so how is it possible that you know 30 hours about DirectBet?
2. You are most likely an alt of other guys trying to make DirectBet look bad.
3. Share the bets with us. If you don't, no one is going to believe you.

Has Direct bet already added altcoins or does it plan to do so in the coming days ?
Might be nice to see CLAM up there as well.

We recently added Darkcoin thanks to clients feedback and poll result.

We're considering adding another coin and currently taking votes and input from members here.

Please do continue to let us know which other coins you'd like to bet with at DirectBet.

Thanks for your feedback.

Then there's the whole "settlement in progress" bullshit. You seem to have no problem taking in our money instantly.....but when it comes to payouts, you hold our fucking money.
I guess it's just you.

I have never had any problems with payouts here. All my bets paid out within 15 minutes after the result is known.

3 days ago I would have said the same. These past few days have been AWFUL. The games get graded as "won", and then sit and wait for settlement in a "settlement in progress" state. And yes, my bets have 1+ confirmations, so that's not the issue.

DirectBet settles bets faster than any other Bitcoin Sportsbook.

During busy hours it may sometimes take a few more minutes for payouts to be issued because we have to send many payouts simultaneously, but even then, you will still get paid within an hour of the event completion and we will get that speed up in the coming days.

In some cases, you try to downright steal by offering odds on a player who is about to lose

We never confirm bets that have no chance of winnings.

Perhaps you saw an outdated bet displayed on our website, but had you actually tried to place it, your bet would have been rejected and refunded automatically if it had no chance of winning.

Thanks to the time stamps in the blockchain, you can verify that we never confirmed bets that had no chance of winning.

I'm not saying you're lyling, but could you share those bets with us? My experience with DirectBet is great, so sharing a few betslips might help me believe you.

How is this even remotely fair? This isn't even one of the "bad" ones. This is par for the course at Directbet for Live games (except for live soccer, which has fair odds).

If you're looking for a bet with no house edge you may want to check our Direct Dice.

Direct Dice is a provably fair dice betting game featuring no house edge for frequent bettors.

In fact, you can actually gain a small edge over the house, because while betting with no house edge you're freerolling on the 10 BTC Jackpot !

I'm not looking for a bet with no house edge. I totally understand that you need to have an edge for sports, which is more than fine. But, you are way outside of the acceptable vig % for most events. In some cases, you try to downright steal by offering odds on a player who is about to lose (which are nowhere close to what the real odds should be) but not offering any odds on the player who is about to win.

13:00 Slask Wroclaw v Trefl Sopot Polish PLK 2014/15 



LIVE !   Moneyline
Slask Wroclaw @ -625.1
Trefl Sopot @ +225

You blame the odds provider, but you are the ones that pay them to provide you with the service. You also tell them how much margin to set between the favorite and underdog. You are price gouging. Also, only offering one side of a bet is complete bullshit. No odds provider in the world would do that on their own. Look at Bet365 - they ALWAYS have both sides of a match. Your odds are typically not even close to theirs for basketball, baseball, football.

This is part of the reason why unlicensed betting operations are illegal. The book can do whatever they want and the customer has no protection.

This same event at Bet365 has Wroclaw @ -390 and Trefl @+280

site is broken, bets stuck in "settlement in progress"

If your bet status says "Settlement in Progress" rest assured the payout is being processed and you should receive it within a few minutes.

It takes a few minutes due to the high volume of simultaneous payouts that we're currently processing.
