    stake.com feedback anyone?

    What's your opinion on this sportsbook?
    They post some bets on twitter. What I find strange is the bet amounts are like this: $5342.32 random numbers with cents. And secondly, 5 mid. figure inlive bets, while Pinnacle or bookmaker have 2-3k limits inlive on the same markets.

    They also spam with casino bonuses and not a single sportsbook offer.

    that's maybe because players are using crypto currency to bet.

    In beginning there is big limit, but if you start winning good, they will limit you.

    At first I liked them a lot, now much less, mostly because they charge 0.0002 btc per withdrawal (to cover fees) which is approx ~$8 at todays price. Miner fees are pennies again and there is no reason to charge this much.

    As someone that deposits and withdraws daily with bitcoin this is unacceptable and I don't play there anymore.

    I've moved most of my btc action to betcoin.ag.

    Betcoin is a better version of Stake. Betcoin has more live betting markets.

    Stake is more slot/live dealer games driven. They seem sponsor quite a few Twitch streamers.

    Stake is great for immediate money in/money out, NO KYC, you won't get the best 'offers' like reload bonuses, etc but again if you are in the US you don't have to deal with offshore books and sending in ID's, Utility Bill and praying you get paid...they'll take massive bets (talk to Eddie) but they will also limit like everyone else...overall a great out for quick money in/money out with no hassle

    Betcoin is safe to play at. They are truly the most underrated book here. What's strange is that once in a while my pregame bet was limited. As soon as the game started, I was able to get down a lot more live. That happened with Olympic soccer.

    US banned. If you don't already have an account there, then don't open a new one. If you have an account and are unsure about anything, write them a support ticket. I did that to make sure that I was OK. Been there since 2013. I've had no problems at all with withdrawals.

    What about Stake and the US?

    I tried out Stake when they first opened the sportsbook. I stopped playing there when I noticed that they were the same as Betcoin, except that Betcoin had more live betting options. At times the lines were also better at Betcoin if they were a tad different.

    I never asked Stake if I was grandfathered in but definitely would not chance playing in a banned country without approval.

    Stake is my fave book. I was at Bookmaker for 10 years and Nitro for 5 before they turned to shit. Stake has ongoing promos. Watford sponsors, official UFC sportsbook, Crypto Gambling Foundation member, government regulated, YadaYadaYada… Lead in 9th and lose, graded a winner. Lose UFC split decision, your moneyback. ML UFC bet, KO/TKO/Sub/DQ pays out double. Lewis or Gane ML this weekend, a finish pays triple. The list goes on and on. Here are some:

    Not trying to get banned, but I have a referral link if you DM me…

    Betcoin is a very underrated book. All my withdrawls are processed within 5 minutes and plenty of options. They should be rated higher.
