    what game is this called? is this just a rock scissors paper type random with some maybe mind game game theory game? or is there a real theory to play at some points? anyone try and play this at this site, never heard of this site before.

    How to playEach player is given 6 Coins ranging from 1 to 6 in value. When a Coin is used once, it cannot be played again.One of 6 random Community Coins ranging from 1 to 6 in value will drop, and players must submit one of their available Coins to win the round.The player with the larger Coin wins the value of their own Coin, plus the Community Coin and the Coin of the opposing player for that round. For example: A player winning with a 5 over a 4, for the "6" Community Coin, would win 5 + 4 + 6 = 15 points for that round.A tie on a round results in no points being awarded and all Coins in play being added to the pot for the next round.Once you reach 32 points, you are guaranteed the win, and gameplay stops. If the last round ends in a tie, the player with the higher score wins, if both players have the same score the game will result in a tie.Game RulesGame creator chooses the Buy-In, ranging from 0.1 (one tenth of a millibitcoin, or mBTC) to 1423.353 mBTC. Both Players have 30 seconds to choose a Coin to play. If this time runs out, game is forfeited to the other player. First to 32 points wins. While there is no house-edge, the site takes 1% of the pot for commission purposes.

    I liked GTBets. They did one cool promo. U get to identify your "favorite team" for NFL + collFB. Got an extra 1/2-pt on each of that team's game.

    I'd give thumbs-up to GTBets, in my experience. Could do a lot worse. FWIW, I DON'T think they're a hi-limit book. Good book for small to mid-size players.

    I don't know. Did not realize they were rated until I looked for them myself. No info I can find searching the forum either.

    I was reading through Bitcoinrush.io's terms of service and there are some terms that are pretty shady/scary.

    1. BitcoinRush.io reserves the right to cancel any sports wager it believes was created in a mischievous manner. This includes but is not limited to (a) creating multiple betting accounts to "max out" a wager, (b) "Middling" bets by betting both sides, and (c) Correlated Wagers (applicable for Parlays).

    Why should they care if you bet one side in the morning and bet the other side in the evening? What happens if you forget you had the other side there? This term is a bit of a red flag.

    2.
    Inactive Accounts

    The operators of BitcoinRush.io reserve the right to shut down inactive accounts and recover their funds. An inactive account is defined as a user that has not logged into BitcoinRush.io within 2 months. Before shutting down any inactive account, we will attempt to use whatever information you've provided us to contact you and try to return whatever funds are in it.

    Seriously 2 months??? That's ridiculously short. And they say they attempt to contact you, but they offer anonymous betting and if you don't give them contact information then they can;t contact you. 2 months if crazy short...someone could be in a coma for 2 months or something and they would take your money. Very scary terms.




    Withdrawals

    The vast majority of withdrawals are instant, but some may take up to 6 hours before sending. Larger withdrawals (cumulative over 50 btc in a 10 day period), will be sent in batches over 30 days.

    This is weak, they must be a small book.


    I also wonder what kind of limits they have on various sports.
    I'd love to have a 5dimes clone, but their terms are kinda scary to me.

    The no betting both sides and we can confiscate your balance after two months certainly rings bells.

    Taking 30 days to pay out more than 150k, I can live with

    The definition of a market-maker is someone who agrees to buy and sell at a published price.

    What if you decide you don't want the bet anymore and you want to sell it back to them? The juice is still built into the line what do they care where they actions coming from.

    People like this are so naive to the way the gambling industry works why would you ever want someone to go create an account somewhere else to get their middles off?

    They might as well just make one of the terms that it's against the rules to win.

    Since I'm a believer in Bitcoin, I bet futures with some of the bitcoin only books. Betting on bitcoin and the future.
