to Fairlay: I haven't gone through this entire thread.  I checked the site and I want to join, but I'm not used to exchanges and it's not clear how betting works.  Have you done a simple step by step explanation to show people how the site and betting works?  Thanks.

If there are multiple prices listed for the same side of a prediction, and I make a large wager, larger than the amount covered on more favorable odds, will it automatically first go against the better of the odds offered and use the remainder on the second set of odds?

Or do I have to make two wagers, once against the better odds and the and then again against the remainder?

@sunestockholder   sorry for your bad experience with horse racing.  We just put it on the site this week and it's currently just an "alpha" version.  You can expect it to improve over the next weeks.

Honestly, I had just known fairlay for the past month, and i can say as of now, they are really the best site to do sports betting.

i am starting to use this site more and more

i noticed a few things

ever time i place a horse racing wager now, all the bets are taking off the board right after and the race disappears? wtf? this has not happened once or twice but it seems impossible to make a horse racing wager now

another issue, i see a match is already resolved but i still have 2 bets pending. why did the other wagers get graded for this match but these two wagers are not?
Manchester United (n) vs. Boru...   77.18   34.24 / 2.920   Borussia Dortmund   N/A   July 22, 2016, 5:58 a.m.   Yes
Manchester United (n) vs. Boru...   85.05   34.24 / 2.920   Borussia Dortmund   N/A   July 22, 2016, 5:58 a.m.   Yes


anyways, i really hope they can fix this horse racing issue

it seems this company is not for the everyday horse gambler or they just dont want the horse racing business

but my question is why offer it if you guys dont want it?

the fact they take 3 hrs to grade a race and now you cannot even make a horse racing wager without the race coming off the board tells me so.

and let me not forget...today they have 1 track listed for horse racing...


where every other matching website has 5 or 6 tracks

if you guys need a horse racing guy to help you with the site-  I am available Smiley

this website seems really good but they can be so much better!

if they graded horse racing say within 10-15 minutes of the race being official instead of 2 hrs after the race, they could get so much more business!

i mean you make bets - hoping to make more once they win and then you end up waiting 3 hrs for each horse racing wager to be graded

im sorry to say but this is deal breaker. I hope they can get this fixed.....as i woud give so much more business, as i love their idea.

got deposit credited. had to wait for it to be confirmed

but i did have 1 more question

i made a wager on a horse race.

the horse race just finished however when i check my pending bet it says the resolution time is 1 hr from now?

does it take this long to grade  horse racing wagers? it would be nice to get it graded right after the race runs

Fairlay is very good. Great odds and fast transactions. Never a problem, or if one, it was responded to and fixed promptly.

I think that justbc guy had his own agenda and was just bashing.

Hi everyone!

We are overhauling our market page right now and will release the changes shortly. If anything won't work as expected, please contact our support!  

One important change is, that you will have the option to place all your bets as taker bets only.  This means that no open prediction will be put on the market when your bet is not fully matched.   This will also be the default bet type.  If you like to switch to the normal one, you can easily do this in the options menu of every market page.

@Negato - there is nothing wrong in general.  I hope you contacted customer support or the issue resolved itself.

something seems to be going wrong with your results.  both of my winning baseball predictions today have come back with a negative result even though the bets should have won.

Nitrogen claims to operate out of Costa Rica, great. Say that tomorrow the site disappears, together with all of the funds. What will you do? Give it a bad rating on your website? Catch the soonest flight out of your home in the US to Costa Rica?

I'm genuinely curious what you find so attractive about Nitrogen (apart from them paying you).

The objective fact is that Fairlay offer better lines (odds) than Nitrogen do.

To think that after two years and 30 pages of forum feedback the site operators would fake a server error to steal your 2BTC is hysterical and ridiculous. Why would the site operators need to bribe you? Are you also expecting reimbursement when you lose bets?

You seem to be suggesting that Nitrogen might not actually operate in Costa Rica (where it would actually be legal to operate a sportsbook).

So which is more likely then -- that Nitrogen *doesn't* operate in C.R. or that Fairlay doesn't operate in London?

Obviously the answer is that Fairlay is more likely to be lying about it. But it's tricky you see -- because in this case you don't necessarily want Fairlay to be telling the truth. Because what happens when the London cops come knocking on Fairlay's door? Will they already be on the first flight to Afghanistan? Will they hide all your BTC in brain keys and make sure you never get your payouts?

The point being -- it's bad business to pick an operator who claims to operate in a location where it's illegal to operate. You can't win for losing.

Now, obviously every site has risks -- even the fiat ones. But it's common sense that the more successful the site, the less likely they are to disappear with your money. And, in the case they do disappear, you'll have a lot of friends with pitchforks ready to hunt them down to the darkest corners of the earth. And even if you can't hunt them down, you'll have people to commiserate with and make you feel better.

You make some bad assumptions. Yes, sites can go under after 2 years of forum posts. We've seen it before. And the reason why they go down isn't necessarily my 2 BTC when they're offering upwards of 100 BTC on the exchange. Someone else could bring them down (again, including the cops) and I could be denied a payout.

As for better odds, no this also wasn't my experience. I thought it would work out like that which is why I deposited, but ended up having to accept worse odds than Nitrogen.

And how was it that you excused them for not reassuring players when they stopped processing withdrawals for 2 days? I do not excuse them at all. And I dread that feeling of not getting the payout so much that I will never play with them again, and I recommend you don't either.

Last but not least, I'm not at all obsessed with Nitrogen. I have plenty to critique about them. They're old-school in a lot of ways. But right now they're anchoring the BTC book space and I give them credit for that. I have zero fear of them disappearing with BTC -- can't say that about Fairlay.
