I have my own view on this subject that may not be the same as the opinions of the majority on how to choose a sportsbet/casino platform.
It is customary on the Bitcointalk forum that trusted members are a guarantee for us to join this or that casino, meaning that they facilitate the selection process when they support certain projects. Most of the successful projects were supported by a trusted member of the site's team, or who tried it and provided a guarantee of its effectiveness and credibility.
Of course, this does not provide a one hundred percent guarantee, as the evaluation of that member could be wrong, as happened recently with Bitlucy that was backed by a reputed member, but it proved to be a scammy project and that member unfortunately lost its good reputation after causing users to lose thousands of dollars of money which they could not withdraw.

Sometimes you also need to see who are those people gives their feedbacks because sometimes there are casino thread creator pays a thread bumper just to show to the forum users that they have relevance and their casino is good according to their paid reviews. But threads here is really a good reference its just we need to scan those reviews if that one came from legitimate people who test their casino and not those fake nor spamming users.

I personally wouldn't worry about such cases. bitcointalk is not kind of site where an unfair review of a gambling site can go unnoticed and just hang there forever. Write such a review and a massive backlash is unavoidable. Overall, it will do no good to a site that wanted to misrepresent itself.
Agreed!
Bitcointalk is not that kind of a forum. If someone is caught doping such things then apart from the backlash they might also get banned or might get an instant negative trust for scamming. There have been instances in the past so there are a lot of mechanism in place here. I would always believe on the feedback left on the respective threads by forum user.

The first step to dictate a reputable online bookie is through the way they handle problems and their odds system, this is the two major things that warrant and miltivate me to any casino. Most sports bookies cannot handle these two important aspects of the business that will earn them a good reputation.

Hello everyone, I've been using online sportsbooks for a while now, but I wanted to know how do you know how to trust those sites? What do you look for in them, what are some red flags for you, that kind of stuff. Hope it makes sense and please share what are your favorite online sportsbooks.
Well, I believe that some variables can be analyzed and this is important!!

I believe the reputation is essential these days, speed/time in withdrawals and also quantity (fast, slow etc). Customer contact support (chat bot? online? email?)
And I also believe that some reviews are also interesting to analyze.
If the sportsbook is filled with positive reviews, then that’s one thing that we should consider. Another one is having a fast payout as some sportsbook have issues because they tend to control the withdrawals. And of course, it’s own customer service as it gives a lot of reasons for the players to keep coming back. However, it’s always best to experience it on your own, as some reviews may only get paid just to attract more potential players.

We will only believe that a sportsbook casino site is trusted when we see that it is licensed.Once the sports book casino site is licensed we will find it in the casino site web series.Then people will talk good about it and if it is popular among all, we will consider it trusted.
As long as we can get a list of trusted sportsbook casino sites from this forum, we should be fine and I believe this forum has provided a list of those casinos. The sportsbook casino site here seems to have a license already and has a good reputation, making it easier for us to choose the sportsbook casino site. We can also directly register and play there while looking at other gambling games. But please be careful if you find a sportsbook casino site out there and it's not reviewed yet on this forum because we don't know how good the casino is.

This is absolute truth about sportsbooks using cryptocurrency. We normally don't review, or, discuss, fiat sportsbooks here, unless they are starting accepting BTC, ETH etc, but crypto sports betting is covered better than anywhere else on this forum. It would be very unwise to start using a crypto sports betting site without consulting this forum first.

Exactly, many times I've heard about a lot of sportsbook site that has scammed players, also if they had a license. About that I've also heard that you can obtain a Curaçao license in really easy way, so, it isn't a necessary

requirement for repute a casino trusted or not. What repute casino trusted is his history of payments and his support.


I have always given myself that trust here in Bitcointalk with respect to the casinos they give them because they comply with the deposits and retreats without problems, and I have seen that the members with more power leave their review in the profiles, for me that is enough Because they review every detail and for those who do not know how to handle many details for security, I have also seen that there are casinos that have no need for registration but are working like this, but I have doubts, there are licenses so that they can allow casinos without registration, as well as those who do not ask for the famous KYC which is a reason for debates.

Reputation first.
We will only believe that a sportsbook casino site is trusted when we see that it is licensed.Once the sports book casino site is licensed we will find it in the casino site web series.Then people will talk good about it and if it is popular among all, we will consider it trusted.
This is misconception, gambling licenses that many online sportsbook used e.g. curacao license didn't protect the users if the sportsbook turn become scam. It's just make the sportsbook is more professional since they're spent some money and follow the regulation. After all, the reputation and trustworthy the sportsbook is depend on the site itself. I've remembered 1xshit have a gambling license before, but as we know 1xshit is a scam site and it prove a casino with license can't be consider as legit casino.

Gambling license shouldn't really be the basis of trust. It should be based on the website's performance and honest feedback of the players. While license could be somehow an assurance, it doesn't really guarantee that the website will not scam its players. Just like you mentioned, there are existing sites not just the one you're pertaining to, that has a license but ends up scamming players.

I guess it's really the way how they handle the issue. So for the newbies, before trusting a website, make sure to check the scam and accusations board to check if they have pending issues. Unresolved issues just mean that they are not really good in addressing the problems of their clients so expect a bad after sales.

It's easy to check the feedback if it's coming from this forum, if they have an ANN thread the better because not only you will read the feedback from the community, you can also see what kind of gambling site they are by just clicking on their profile.
It creates good things when great people gathers in one forum like this. Checking everything will be easy and different opinion will be provided.
If it's a good sports bookie I can say Sportsbet did a pretty great job at being one with high reputation in this forum. There's no doubt as I have tried it too and it's not just the service but also the features of their gambling site. UI is not a sore in the eye and options like same game parlays that cannot be seen at other sites.
This forum is a good starting point for every sports betting site. Country restrictions should also be checked.

Well I have heard a lot of licensed gambling casinos that have been turned into scams or have fraudulent activities --like not paying their users when they withdraw their money or having a problem with the reward and bonuses. I think that is not how to measure trusted gambling casinos. It will determine by the lenght of their service and the feedback from the users because trust will gain in just a single day, it should matter in months or years, perhaps. For me how to trust them is just there should be feedback from the community that uses them, individual feedback is good than the review gambling casino which is the review written by the author while in the community it is from individual of them who tried gamble to that casino.

Yes, that's correct. Look at members who are really using the service not blindly because they are users who tagged them with a positive trust. I mean, that's a good addition to trusting a service but it will never hurt to be sure by checking different experiences from different users.
Before, I use Sportsbet.io as my main sports betting site and I still use them today if I cannot see the game on Stake.com. These two sites have never failed me in both deposit and withdrawals and the same goes for the service. If a game is "void" they give back the amount you bet for and after the game ended the payment is almost instant after checking the final scores.

Positive and negative feedback should be viewed in similar way. Actually it's more easier to fake positive feedback rather than negative feedback because a user can post positive review in the casino with different intent such as he is just employed by signature campaign, he is participating on the promotion that he gets benefit and many more. I will bring Bitlucy as example here, There ANN thread was full of positive feedback back then because they have an active free spin giveaway and new signature campaign but look at them right now, Those positive feedback make the victims feel comfortable on playing in the casino and deposit huge amount.

In this case, Positive feedback should be supported by evidence especially if it's content is all about the reputation of th casino.
I think, just, in my opinion, it’s both easy to make positive or negative feedback especially if it’s just from a beginner who can’t immediately tell if it really has real experience or is currently playing on a gambling site.

But if the basing itself is here in the forum and their thread then you will know who is lying or not, especially if there is backup by a reputable veteran in the field to confirm.

That's really what usually happens, isn't it?  We won’t know right away if we don’t try.  Maybe in their case, they have not prepared for the possible bad or wrong things that may happen and how they will handle it and come up with a solution to fix it but if not, it will come out exactly what their real purpose is. After all, it's all about reputation.

I will retain blindly believing bitcointalk trust feedbacks when it comes reputation of ones sportsbook especially a negative one. Make sure you check all the reference are legit and is true before believing a negative feedback. While the positive feedback is sometimes meh, dont count it in, sometimes it just a thank you feedback, not a comprehensive one.

Plus, the looks/UI/content of the website look at this one https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.60454225
It was almost copied from other website even the slogan.
I tend to view things in a similar fashion, positive reviews do not require any evidence to be put forward about the legitimacy of a casino, however when it comes to a negative trust evidence is necessary in order for the community to get behind it, so if a service like a casino gets a negative rating then you know that something happened and that the community does not approve of it, and this is key as you can see the extent of their behavior and in the case it is unacceptable for you then you can avoid that casino from now on.

If you want to join a sportsbook, you must first read the overview. Real sportsbook requires a readable and printable license agreement. This is the basis for determining whether each user acts legally and complies with the laws of each country. The license requires the user to complete the terms and conditions without advertisements or changes. you have to know their deposit and withdrawn system. Is there any KYC process?. How much time will need to take withdraw? It is better to join Sportsbook knowing all the issues like what country it is operated from or how it is controlled. You can find out more about these topics by searching online and there are many topics or posts in this forum as well that you can find out about the feedback. If all the requirements are fulfilled then you can apply to this sportsbook.
I believe also that License is one of what we need to seek first and the countries  rules about gambling because this will hinder our capacity to enjoy the winnings , it is ok if we will continue losing but once there is a need for withdrawal then it will be the burden.
but the best advise is that Only play in sportsbook that has a good reputation and record specially here in bitcointalk as we have many in this forum that has advertising for long.
