Betting with the Eurovision Song Contest is a little difficult, and it is also more difficult to predict correctly. In the Eurovision Song Contest the performances of the competitors are second-line, often with different scoring methods.

Thank you for your reply and the link. So I can also make a new bet which doesn't exist yet, right? For example "Will country X finish in Top 10?".

But because this relies on other people to participate, if nobody takes my bet, nothing happens?
You can't do that on fairlay the only thing that you can make there is your own odds. If you want to make your own specific bet you can do it with BetMoose.

But because this relies on other people to participate, if nobody takes my bet, nothing happens?
With fairlay you don't have to wait for anyone to take your bet when you click the "taker" a specified odds should appear. If you're willing to take those odds it should be matched right away after clicking the place button.



Honestly it's not true.
In fairlay, the users are able to create their own bets, and to offer the bets to new users, all they need to do is to create a valid bet offer, and then publish it, the fairlay team will review it, and if it's made correctly, then it will go into the public and everybody would be able to make bets on your gambling offer and to set up their own odds.

If your gambling offer turns  up to be a success you can also earn real bitcoins for that.

To be honest I didn't know there is place where people can bet on Eurovision Song contest. Now I'm interested in betting too.  Grin

Hi,
 I would suggest you to place your bet on fairlay.com , it's a gambling exchange( which means that you bet against other people and not against the house), you place your bet like a bid in an exchange and wait for someone to take it or you can be the taker and take someone's bet.
Anyway they charge zero fee on sportsbook betting so it's actually would be the best solution.

This is the first time I heard about this site, is it well known one? I guess it has good reputation?
Also I would like to know, who is guaranteeing that I will get my share if I win the bet? I guess there is some kind of deposing before betting right? Is there some kind of fee for withdrawing my coins later on?
Sorry for asking this questions here and not checking them directly on site. But I have my own reasons why I don't open unknown links right away.

It has good reputation, but it's not very popular, so unfortunately I can't fulfill all the bets I want. There will not be any takers for my bets and they will just return the money to me.

hmmm it may worth mentioning it for onehash since they can add such markets , but not sure how the volume will be
anyways you may not like it since it's mutual betting so you won't be able to know exactly what odds you are betting on , but I may be wrong

OneHash had the Eurovision event in 2016 and in 2017, but for some reason they don't have it for 2018. But yes, because it's mutual betting, I can't bet on everything I want, most of the bets would be annulled.



So I guess what I'm actually looking for is a betting website which has:
  • Eurovision Song Contest event
  • Bitcoin deposits
  • No mutual betting (or it can have it but be popular enough to be able to have takers for my bets)
  • No KYC
  • Betting on top 10 countries in the Eurovision final

Looks like too much to ask for, but DirectBet.eu actually fulfilled all these conditions before it closed down. Sad

I've found SportsBet.io:

https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/specials/eurovision-song-contest/U3BvcnRzYmV0TmV3R3JhcGhxbEV2ZW50OjVhYWY2ODIzMDdjMThmMDAwNjlkOGE5Mw==

But I've read here on the forum that they ask you for KYC before you can withdraw your winnings. And they don't have betting on top 10 countries.

Does anyone maybe know of a traditional betting website (like one of those listed here: https://eurovisionworld.com/odds/eurovision), which accepts BTC as deposit? I know they have KYC, but it's the last option.

I'm having a tough time finding a website which has the Eurovision Song Contest, accepts BTC and doesn't require KYC. Every year so far I've used DirectBet.eu and it has been excellent, but it closed down.

Also, I'm looking for betting on Top 10, not just the outright winner.

Any suggestions are very appreciated.
