        Yeah, anyone can do this but if Betfair detect a book using their data they ask them to pay over 100k for a license.

        Tough to get away with reading all the markets data and not placing bets on them in order to just get the odds. My guess is that they must be auto laying off all bets so they have activity. Or they paid the huge license fee.

                Tried this place yesterday for the first time with a couple of horse race wagers.

                Went very smoothly, the deposit I made to directbet (to make my bet) from my bitcoin wallet (blockchain) instantly showed up at directbet, and for the races i won, the winnings were back in my blockchain wallet around 10 minutes after the horses crossed the finish line.

                The price I received in my wallet was the price quoted to me when the bet was received at directbet, so once the bet is locked in, no more commission after that.

                  Gave them a try today. Norway women vs Thailand . It was 3-0 at half and i took under 5.5, figured they would relax second half.
                  bet 1.5 bitcoin and won 3.1. I received funds 8 minutes after final whistle. So about 900 Canadian in less than 10 minutes, not bad.

                        Directbet pro's and cons.

                        Pros- You don't need an account. Bets are returned to your wallet after being graded. They allow you to bet in many crypto-currencies.

                        Cons - There may be delays between the time the bitcoins have left your wallet until the time it hits DirectBet's wallet. There have been delays over an hour and the bettor does not know if he has a bet or not until confirmation/rejection has occurred. Score changes can occur while waiting and you can't cancel the bet.

                          Got 5 bitcoins on this match. At anonibet it would have taken 15 wagers for that amount. Like them so far

                            Anonibet definitely needs to increase limits in major markets. It's frustrating having to pop bets over and over again.

                                  Went back for 3 bitcoins on Peru Venezuela match under 2.5 . The odds were 1.69. The max bet pre match was 4 Bitcoin on this particular market and at one point they were taking 42 Bitcoin at odds of 1.34 in play.
                                  I will see how it goes

                                      Not a book for American markets since the hold is too high and many times they will only have a line on one side. Anonibet also has a problem with competitive pricing in American markets. Anonibet doesn't have overnight lines in American markets.

                                      Here's an example of baseball at DirectBet

                                          I am looking at them from a perspective of how quickly they pay and amount of wager . You can look all over the forum with people waiting weeks for checks . In that sense this is a quality book.
