    Bitcoin books are advanced. If you are red flagged at one book, you're red flagged at many books. They know you before the first bet. That's why some are limited so fast.

    I still think that a manual change needs to be done on major markets. Can't limit anyone to $50 on NFL or the upcoming World Cup.

      In just reading this last page it sounds like the cat caught the mouse a few times here at Betcoin.

      I have no comment except to say this isn't the only book to experience these problems. Never underestimate the creativity of a motivated sportsbettor or group of bettors.

      I do believe that they paid out to multiple accounters, that's a very realistic assertion. But those multi accounters abused it and probably made it obvious and now Betcoin is updating the tech.

      There's an answer to the tech though, but those answers require patience and discipline. From Betcoins standpoint, I see the need to act.

      From my standpoint, there's nothing more tragic than a motivated group without the patience and discipline. It hurts the players, the books, and the market overall.

      I think Betcoin will be fine and, after some time, I wouldn't worry much about safety at the house. I do want some time to pass though, before hitting them again, but we're just not sure how bad they got got to begin with and how much they are letting on about it. If someone was asleep at the wheel, there could be issues.

      When I said I had no comment it was about specific issue with players in this thread, and if there are legitimate issues, I hope they get resolved.

      Again, if you are one to get made by some of these bitcoin books, you have to be patient, and disciplined, it's a touchy beast with them.

      Don't abuse the ability to abuse lest we all get abused.

        That's an excellent post. One thing to add is that Betcoin agrees to 3rd party arbitration. These players should get together with Betcoin and pick out a third party if they have a case. I don't know of any other book that agrees to binding arbitration.

          Along with innocent players getting caught in the mix. If you know of any sports bettors in the same city who use Betcoin, be very careful as you may get caught up if you even bet on the same sport.

                                      Most books aren't going to put up prop bets on players if they aren't sure they'll start. They had player props up early.

                                            They aren't a Pinnacle skin but they run two books from the same site so there are two sets of lines and limits. You'll be fine playing there from the US. They are a no KYC book as long as you aren't using a VPN.

                                              It looks like they aren't a Pinnacle skin anymore - not sure what they are now.

                                                I'm not sure either but they have two books listed on the site with different lines. One is Betcoin and the other Gamebetr. They added poker and are US friendly.

                                                I was wrong about the VPN. It's fine to use a VPN. It just makes it easier so that you're never accused of using multiple accounts.

                                                  Agreed, would be nice to know who their odds provider is for better tracking.

                                                    Was looking for an Online book who will hold the account value as a BTC-denominated balance.

                                                    Betcoin qualifies on that front. But the juice looks too fat. > 20-cent juice.

                                                    I'm looking for -108/-108 type lines. Something like 16-cent juice. Thx for any suggestions!

                                                      Go to their Gamebetr book. They were even tighter in the NFL.

                                                          Even more importantly is that Betcoin will have the best line on one side or the other. Betcoin's live betting is the best out there.

                                                            Betcoin has a racebook for the Derby if anyone wants to horse bet in crypto.
