    The brand has bricks and mortar shops in Russia. Hard to be certain how connected they are though. Web operation is owned by a Gibralter company and regulated in Curaceo. Domain owner and hosting info is concealed.

    I've only had to deal with one complaint about them personally. A player whose account was closed without explanation. 1xbet said they would get back to me but have not despite several follow ups.

    It seems to be a quite reliable book since they have many shops and sports bars here in Moscow. Real business, not scam.

    Hard to know exactly how connected the online and offline businesses are.

    Their online and offline betting services are closely connected. They have common database, soft, financial staff and management. For instance, you may register an account at 1xbet website, then go to their offline shop (office), deposit cash money to your account there, place some bets at home online and then withdraw your winnings in cash at the office again.

    I would not say the 1xbet is a mostly reliable book here. My idea of the Russian bookies' reliability rating looks like this:

    A. Fonbet, Betcity, Liga-stavok
    B. Marathonbet, 1xbet, Tennisi
    С. Parimatch, Favbet, Leonbets

    F. Zenitbet, Bkleader

    vbet, olybet, 5plusbet, fartbet, sectorbet and other books with the same betting platform can not be considered as Russian. They have not got licences for work in RF and so have no offices in this country.

    Allright fellas. Here's some information about 1xbet.

    First of all, they have a very different LIMITATION process.

    Let's say you're a winning player, you're picking value bets, dropping odds. Bookie marks you as sharp player and when you login to site, you see 1.90 odds instead of 1.97! So, they lower your odds instead of collaring your limits.

    Not to mention, they request SKYPE VIDEO CALL for KYC verification. Not always but mostly. Not a problem if account is on your name.

    About reliability, they look okay. They have betshops in Russia.

    A couple of weeks ago a new thread was started about Looselines limiting people this way too. They claimed you get a confirmation delay and are always offered worse odds, on both sides, once limited there.

    He was quite upset about it and insisted it was 'wrong'.

    What do you think about this way to limit players as opposed to setting a low max stake or simply booting players?

    Anyone that requires a lot of verification usually is a decent book

    If I was not in the USA I would try this place

    I rather have changing odds than lower limits

    Ha, cute - offer insane low juice odds that always put you at the top on odds comparison sites ........... then give different prices to anyone who bets value.

    If I remember right one of the Asian front-ends for IBC used to do this for European clients also. Dafa or 12bet? Can't remember. Wasn't so much, just a cent or two extra juice on each side.

    The issue with this you don't have a bankroll. You bet $100 a game every game from your spreadsheet. I don't even know what to say...

    I haven't heard anything really bad about them but I wouldn't trust anyone related to curacao. I've complaints about 3 different sites all either based in Curacao or have a license there and they never answer their phone or answer emails. I've heard that there's quite a lot of corruption over there. There must be a reason why lots of betting sites choose such a random tiny island to base themselves.

    Presumably little to no tax/regulation, and decent internet infrastructure.

    Pinnacle are there btw, so they're not all dodgy.

    1 license for all the different types of gambling.

    Low cost.

    No division of player funds required.

    A lot less reporting rules.

    No vetting of company structures to determine exactly who gets the profits.

    The costs of complying with regulation would be far less.

    Best prices on the market. Take my sport as example: tennis. Pinnacle are exceptional already, at the equivalent of -104 (1.96) for moneylines. 1xbet do -102 (1.98).

    Of course, the "limiting" method mentioned above kinda renders this useless :-)
