    No US sportsbook exchange?

    I have been looking into using a sports betting exchange, but have read that there are no good exchanges that accept US players. Would the use of bitcoin as the deposit/withdrawal method and a VPN routed through the UK allow for a player to bypass the exclusion of US players. Would this be safe?

    I wouldnt use a vpn to access any site... if the shop finds out they may show you the door for several reasons. One mistake on your part can see you losing your account and funds. Best bet is to find a shop that offers lines similar to an exchange/shop with lowest margins.

    Shouldn't use a VPN as if you the book finds out they will most likely take the funds as you broke there T&C.

    Yeah I was afraid that would be the case. It's unfortunate that there are no good exchanges for US players.

    You can get access to Matchbook and possibly Betfair through a broker. You might find some useful info in this thread: http://www.sportsbookreview.com/foru...canadians.html

    Check out vipsportsbook.eu they are really good. They use the mollybet platform and it works great for both live and pregame betting. I usually only bet with brokers when betting high stakes as it makes sense betting into the best number possible (betfair, pinny and more). If I didn't live in the US I wouldn't need a broker account at all. As mentioned I only use them for high stakes wagering on markets that books like nitrogen and others don't allow. Max I can get down at nitro on obscure markets is around .5 btc (itf, lower league soccer) but at vip I can lay around 50k using all the books they offer. Biggest wager I made was 5k on Armenian league soccer just to give you an idea... fast payouts too. I like them over asian connect because the layout is smoother and I don't have to log into each and every acct (betfair, pinny, etc) when I want to place a bet.. its all right there on a single platform.

    I see this is a new domain and owned by John from Betballer.

    With an E-Sports one supposed to be coming too he must be busy.

    That's how I came across vipsportsbook.eu ... I was betting at Betballer and I asked John to up my limits across the board which he did. However when I went to go bet the Armenian league bet that I mentioned in my post, I realized that the limits were still low even after he raised them for me (small obscure market)... he then directed me to vipsportsbook so that I could get the desired amount on. I felt good betting into vip being that they were backed by the same book (Betballer) and so far everything has been pleasant. As mentioned in my post, I like the platform much better than asianconnect which to date was the only broker I had previously used. I only use vip for big bets tho and I spread my smaller action throughout the many shops I'm currently funded at.

    I think it's just personal preference really but Mollybet is definitely a neat solution.
