I think what op is trying to caution against is to being tricked into placing a bet which is not really there to the best of my understanding to what he highlighted. Although that might not be a "scamming" attitude but it could be interpreted to be misrepresentation of the actual situation oif thing which places more vigilance to be extra observant when placing a bet and not be carried away by the impressive odds...

I'm pretty sure other bookmakers also provide these kind of bets, even major European bookmakers like Bet365.com.

Does it really matter? They show the kind of bet in your betslip before you place the bet...

This is why I always go to their live sports section rather than betting at their front page right away. I think they only put up lines like that because the match winner markets aren't available for live during that time anyways sorry about your loss.

CloudBet will say that it is your fault for not checking bet's properties and betting blindly.
Imo it's definitely betting blindly because the user have time to review his bet before placing the live bet.

As I stated twice above I'm not complaining about money I did not check slip before confirming but I think it's bad by design not to state what kind of bet it is before.as you know I as well go to match page for next goal at and I guess I have learned this the hard way and will pay attention in future but I personally think that anyone can fall for it so just wanted to warn users.

i havent' used bitcointalk for while so didn't know about cloudbet thread i just wanted to warn people cause i never seen this before .. i obviusly fell for it just wanted to warn fellow gamblers ..
Well, it is not a big problem I guess. If you think this is a serious issue then separate thread will be more visible.
Here is an official CloudBet thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/cloudbet-sportsbook-and-casino-bet-with-btc-and-bch-100-deposit-bonus-333552

I guess this type of presenting bets could be labeled as disinformation created deceive target audience.

thanks for your help i have posted there as well, issue is not money i know that i am responislbe cause i manully clickerd bet but i do not think it should be listed in front without stating what bet actually is cause all other 20 matches there are bets for team to win so anyone would think same for this , i think those type of bet should not be listed there without stating what it is. and yes i think it's serius issue anyone that uses cloudbet on regular basis would assume same look at picture it clearly shows match and has options for team to win and draw and not next goal at.i hope they address it soon , i have never seen this before luckilly i caught same example on that picture with score being 5 to 0 ...

its a warning for people is used caps if you used cloudbet you would know what i'm talking about , look at front page it does not state what kind of bet is and i never seen this before , anyone can fall for it cause it only states on slip in small letters what actual bet is , and anyone that uses cloudbet would assume bet is just straight bet  causer all others are just that straight bets for live matches so people can easily be tricked into loosing money.
1. Was it necessary to create separate topic for this issue? It could be discussed in Cloudbet's thread.
2. This type of bet presentation is not exactly a scam, but I agree that might feel like exploit and clickbait more than anything.
3. Knowing what you are betting on and confirming the right bet is players responsibility - CloudBet is not gonna refund your money.

As always the devil is in the details.



i never said it's scam but to good to be true clickbait cause it clearly does not state what kind of bet is , if there is 20 bets listed and they all same for winning team or draw anyone would assume this is same bet.

never said scam just wanted to warn people cause if i fell for it anyone can , i have never encountered this type of bet before on front page have you??

i understand i am responsibl;e for my bets win or lose and i was not talkin about my money but clearly explaining what it is as much as i could to warn other players

is there anyway to crospost on cloudbet any help woul;d be apriciated..

thanks haven't used forums in long time so i just went ot gambling section.

all other live bets are to pick winning team why is this put in there without stating what bet it is i know odds are to good to be true but anyone would assume same as me cause all other live matches listed are same win draw win team 2 and clearly does not state next goal at on front...

if you seen this before please tell me i have never seen this and obviusly fell for it.. this is unfair cause bet clearly does not state if it's next goal at on front page and before when i used to bet next goal at i would click on match to go find that option uinderneath on match page not listed in front being to good to be true click bait bet...
