Basically i dont trust any online gambling site unless i have played and have first hand experience on the site before I can recommend it to anyone, there are so many reputable sportsbooks around and to a large extent, there are other scammy ones around too so I advise you try all the site out on your own.

I think player reviews are very important to judge how trusted a website is. You will find in this forum which website is trusted and user friendly, because here players discuss the good and bad aspects of different websites.. Not only in this forum, but also in various review websites you will find which website is suitable for players to play. There are a lot of websites online, this does not mean that you have to play in every website. I think it is a good option to join a website that is reliable and has built a good reputation.
That is correct one can get a good trusted sportsbook from the review of members from this forum the forum serves as the first starting point for any information, so considerable review of members of the forum is still a good-to-go source.

There are casinos on the forum which have introduced sports betting also on their platform like my signature company also so the trust prevails there and any issue can be reported which will be resolved soon.The other ways are going through reviews on BTCGOSU specially if you want to have genuine and unbiased one's and check if they are on the forum.Try to spend some time having research on them and then only start betting there.

Many players will all have a different opinion about a particular bookmaker. You always keep saying that there are problems with the bookmaker. It is impossible that there is a bookmaker or casino that never has any problems with a customer. Each customer has its own connection to a site. In order to be able to assess it properly, you should actually rely purely on your own experience and then play with low stakes, for example, to see how the interaction and reaction of the bookmaker is. If I may give one more piece of advice, stay away from bookmakers with the MGA.
It is normal to have an issue about casinos and Bookmarkers but the problem is if the issue is not usual , I mean if this involves case of scamming then this is different from what we are talking here.
trust is given to those who deserve it and we have plenty here in forum , but there are also scam like those some that runs their advertising here and everywhere , and also in all parts of the world like internet and even in tv ads.

You got me wrong! Sorry if my reply wasn't so clear, I'll try to rephrase it to better explain what I was asking about.
I wasn't asking about how a sportsbook can establish a good reputation on bitcointalk or how they can attract new players. I asked how we can know if a sportsbook can be trusted if they don't have an announcement thread here or on other reviews websites where we can read other members feedbacks and reviews
I got you and it's clear to me what are you pointing out. It's simple, I will make a new thread and will ask if ever anyone here on this forum has already tried playing on this or that new crypto casino or sportsbook like I used to like I recently did for a new trading platform. Then I will wait for their answers before continuing to get involved on the new site. It's free to ask here in this forum and even newbies can make a new topic.

Additionally, on how to know and look for a trusted one, for me, I consider how the casino handles their customers, especially their contact support, how they respond to queries and do they solve them quickly as time expected.

 aside from looking for a security the site must also KYC free ..
^ I did not know a gambling sports casino that did not ask KYC, everything now was asking for KYC verification which is once you are legally operated, expected there is a KYC process. As I have observed, licensed gambling casinos or sportsbooks are most of them operated legally so I think that it is also good for them to gain trust. But if you will found a new gambling casino, it is hard to tell that you trusted them already. You need to used them first at least a months as what you have said and observe how you trust them.

You can try to read reviews first and then if the site is ok that could be the start for you to try it on your own, give at least a month to tell if that site is worth to play or not. I’m looking for a more fair sportsbooks that offers a lot of betting option, and aside from looking for a security the site must also KYC free so I can stay on that site and keep betting. Seriously, we all have personal standard and what’s good for me might not be ok for you, so better to try it for yourself and have a list for pros and cons.

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.
You are using one of the best site in crypto gambling today and I’m you already know the answer for this.
Anyway, I trust gambling site based on their services and terms and conditions, faster transactions and more promotions can really force me to gamble more. Though, for me poor online support and KYC thing are the red flags for me and I have to think more if I’m going to continue playing with them or better to shift to another site. If you are uncomfortable already with those site, you can always go to another option don’t settle for less since more good site are here in the market.

The more you experience the site, the more you can tell that the site can be trusted and that is the best site available for you. I usually follow the crowd, if this site is ok to some gamblers then it might also work for me. Also, you can see on the top gambling site they reviews and services, you can read everything there and choose what’s fit for you. Most of the time, the reviews are correct but then again just gamble what you can afford to lose so you wont regret later on especially if you incur problem with those site.

Well, they need to establish a good relationship with the forum users if they want to attract any players on this forum. There is no free meal. Sometimes even that's not going to be enough.

Well whenever I trust a bookmaker I always check their reputation, sometimes it is possible that I look for the reviews made by those who are in charge of it, I also check if they have an ANN thread always active, apart from everything as a last option I check if they are running a signature campaign, verifying all of that, gives me the confidence I need.

Another way that I also check is if they do daily contests, there are many bookmakers that are always offering weekly contests, or even every 15 days is acceptable, that gives me complete confidence. Now if you are running a signature campaign run by a reputable campaign manager that is more than enough.

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.
First, one of the ways I check online sportsbooks is through other peoples review of their services and how they operate, before joining or depositing money into any online sportsbooks, I try to search online and see what customers of that sportsbook are saying concerning them.
Though it is not advisable to trust any online casino 100 percent, so always play with as much as you can afford to lose, it is the same thing as investing in crypto, you invest what you can afford to lose.

And concerning favorite online sportsbook, there are a lot of great casinos here, I personally have alot of them that I actually don't know which is my favorite Grin, my personal advice is that you do your research and find one that meets your standard.

There is a generalised issue with opinions when trying to assess the reputation and true worth of a sportsbook or of any site or service nowadays, there are companies and services that will put good rating and comments for a price, so they distort the real view of the real clients. Word of mouth or perhaps comments from the most senior leaders on the forum is better.

First and foremost I always use a sportsbooks that have an ANN thread in this forum, because I already know this forum is mostly free about any users opinion and I know to check whether the site is scam or legit based on his trust feedback. Any reviews or articles are sucks about the credibility, they can got paid by the scam casino to shill them e.g. 1xbit. If you search 1xbit reviews on the google search, you will see most articles talking about them is a good casino and doesn't scam.
People can be paid for review, like I or anyone can be paid to give fake review about a site, even scam sites do have good reviews for victims to be able to get convinced. I too can not trust reviews. Since I have been on this forum, I know about crypto gambling sites because I was using fiat based gambling sites like bet365 before, the crypto gambling sites on this forum that I have used before are trustworthy, even the Stake I have just started to know is good. The only one that is not trustworthy is given negative trust which is 1xbit.
Reviews could really be faked thats why its really hard to trust up any sites which arent known into this forum thats why whenever i do see something new  then the primary place i do check on is into this forum.

If i cant find it then its better to avoid it so that you wont really be having no problems or would be having some headache just because you had dealt with a scam sportsbook or casino.

It does really need up some common sense most of the time and a little bit effort on making out some research.
One thing you have to consider is to look it in this forum if the sportsbook have some crypto related to know if it has a potential to be a good casino in the future. And yes, a little bit of common sense when doing some research and I think you would notice it just like how the review can be paid to release a fake reviews.

You just have to be very observant and learn what are the common red flags of the other scam casino as well as the green flags of a reputable casino. Then you can do the math after that.
Being observant would be the key on which you cant really make yourself put into trouble if you do just make use of your common sense and awareness on dealing up with things online specially that there are really

high chances of dealing with some scammy sites which you might not able to distinguish depending on how sophisticated it would be.There are people who do really just missed out even with having that obvious

shady act.As a users and since we do talk about money deposit or real money on here then we should really be keen or careful on choosing which one.

Agreed!
Getting positive reviews is not a big deal. Scammers can pay a few bucks per review and people will fill their review page, they don't care whether it is a scammer or a legit.
Therefore using forums search feature would be a good idea.
and while searching, type something like this: "website name scam" this way, you will get all the topics of the Scam Accusations of that particular website.

I search their thread here and make a research. What the users say about it, what problems this sportbook have and how their support work with it. How long it works - for me it is better to use an old sportbook with good reputation then to choose new one with better bonuses.
PS. The fast way is to google "site name + scam/cheaters/problem" and analyze the links.
there's nothing wrong with trying a new sportsbook, just to find the gaming experience elsewhere. only use small money to try it. I often try new sportsbooks, especially the ones advertised on forums. not to chase bonuses, just want to find the most comfortable place to play to spend money.
if we look in the forums, there are several sportsbooks that we can use. Seeing reputation in forums and reviews from other members will certainly be easier. I don't play sports books anywhere else except the ones on the forums. although many websites accept fiat for us to bet on.
Yes, even old sportsbook sometimes were new. And they had the same question. But i`m not ready to spend time and(possible) money to test any new sportsbook. I`d prefer to use known sportsbook without small bets and thinking about withdraw. And wait until this new sportsbook get trust and feedback. But it is possible that i can miss some bonuses - for someone it may be a part of strategy.

Don't say this sir, maybe you should consider only the largest and the biggest one, they are really trusted, and also keep an eye if site is licensed or not, in this way you can play in really safe mode.

However, I also consider that scam is always behind the corner, but anyway, follow this advice  Wink

Trying every sports book ourselves is difficult and risky too as you will not know in advance if the site is legit or scammy?

Instead of this, I will prefer to read the reviews about the gambling sites and sportsbooks and then decide to play at those that suit my preferences. Also, it's better to play at old trusted sites instead of brand new ones.
