thats sort of misleading..there is no guarentee that you would get 1/2 bet size once in..then get second 1/2 at the same price.  u might you might not..u could get worse or better or same on second half.

His question was whether placing a bet at half the maximum stake will cause the odds to reduce, and the answer is no.

Yes the odds might change over time due to various other factors, but not because we previously accepted a similar bet.

and I like the simple interface..i wish horse racing wagers could be put in faster however not that second screen , copy paste,  odds change so fast and its not fast to get in a wager.....somehow just click and confirm.

Thanks for the fast answers, interesting though that if hypothetically I'd place 1 btc at 8/1 you won't take the bet am I correct ? If yes could I use 2 separate bitcoin addresses 2x 0.5btc ? will you accept these 2 bets or lower the odds ?

I saw that you don't offer horse racing from Ireland and also some races are missing from tomorrow's UK meetings ? Do you only cover selective races where the overround is higher ?

Also I can't seem to find any info about DirectBet, can you expand more about where are you based and how long have you been involved in bookmaking prior to this ?

Anyways I hope you'll make a long and healthy business as we needed this fresh air after the long war with the pathetic bookies who restrict to pennies even after few bets, although I also hope you can improve your website design as it looks from the 90s no offence :-)

After you order a bet, the bet status page will tell you what is the maximum amount that you can send. If you send half of the maximum allowed and re-order the same bet, you will be able to send the other half for the second bet. The bet odds will not be affected by that.

We do cover horse racing from Ireland. The reason why some races are missing is because we do not yet have reliable odds for them, so please check back later. Betting for some races will only become available shortly before the start of the race.

We prefer to remain anonymous for the time being. However, despite the fact that we are relatively new, it is important to note that we provide the safest Bitcoin sports betting, because unlike others, we do not take deposits and keep hold of your Bitcoins, except during the lifetime of the bet and only the amount that you elected to bet. This period of time is kept to the minimum thanks to the fact that we settle all bets within an hour. Your Bitcoins are kept safe in your wallet under your control at all other times. We've explained this in more details here : http://www.directbet.eu/FAQ.cshtml

Yes our web designer is stuck in the 90s, you are not the first to say that, but we actually like it  Smiley I hope that at least you find it fast and easy to use.

That transaction still has only 5 confirmations but its great you sent the winnings prior to the 6 confirmations.

His bet winnings were sent after 6 confirmations. What I sent him which did not require 6 confirmations was a prize as part of our horse racing betting promotion.

Scroll up a few posts if you would like to read more and participate in this promotion.

Can I ask you how are you making the book in horse racing ? Do you take the odds from other firms ? Also what is the min & max bets ? bookies nowadays block winning punters but how about you ? it seems you have no control over them except over a particular bitcoin address ? are you able to make a proper bookmaking job unlike the old names who are restricting customers left and right ?

We do relay on other sources for odds.

Generally, the maximum you can profit from each bet is 7.75 BTC. So if for example the bet odds is 1.5, the max bet size is 15 BTC.

Unlike other sportbooks, we welcome winners and arbitrage bettors and will never limit them.

You are right, due to the nature of Bitcoin and the complete anonymous betting that we offer, we wouldn't be able to limit them even if we wanted to. Instead, we have a risk management system in place that has the option to cover bets on other sources if and when necessary. This allows us to take bets from winning players.

Our Bitcoin Core wallet went out of sync with the block chain for a short period and as a result it was not aware of your transfer.

I apology about that. Your bet is now confirmed and future bets should confirm immediately as usual.
