Anyone can verify the SwC poker freeroll because its visible to anyone in lobby



The Nitogen freeroll has been going for years, in fact it used to have a bigger prize, no one has ever doubted it's existence before (its only visible in the lobby to my referrals)... I can't think how to verify the others other than waiting for a rep from Stake to come around.

Yes the bonuses are for BitEdge referrals only so you have to sign up through a BitEdge referral link to get them. Some forums don't like people posting their referral links so I just posted the links to the bonus section of our site instead.

I have asked Stake to drop by here to clear up any doubts and I am sure they will soon.

Man Utd have only won the FA Cup once in the last 16 years - so it's about time they got it together.

By the way I have put together a crypto sports betting roundup with some offers and tips if you're interested: https://bitedge.com/blog/crypto-betting-weekly-issue-2/

Let me know what you think :-)

Mourinho knows the United players and knows how to stifle them. Harry Kane is back and that means goals! Looks like a Spurs win to me.

Huge value to be had in betting on away wins this week in the EPL.

Here's an interesting feature: https://bitedge.com/blog/why-epl-away-teams-are-good-value-this-season/ 

Based on scientific studies and the recent trend in German Bundesliga, it looks like sportsbooks haven't cottoned on.

Looks like they have closed. good to have 1 less shit sportsbook but I hope people did not lose their balances. Was this an exit scam or an orderly shut down?

So has Bitcoin Rush closed down or changed URL again?

DarkStar_ is there a reason you did not include Anonibet? What is your opinion on them?


Be aware only the winner pays commission making it equivalent to a 2% house edge, about as good as the lowest edge sportsbooks. The real problem with BetBTC is the lack of liquidity which causes slippage if you wane to make a decent size bet in a hurry.


Yeah that is a big problem, we maintain a chart of geoblocking by bitcoin gambling operators here and it's pretty bad news for Brits. If I lived there I would use a VPN.

I did it!

I spent 629 m฿ going to the 3 Socceroos World Cup games in Russia (at the time of paying for everything bitcoin was worth 2.5 x more than it is now). Full itemization of expenses is here

I won 664 m฿ betting on the games, detailed here

Intercontinental playoff 2nd-leg report

This post is the TLDR, full and updated details are here https://bitedge.com/blog/betting-my-way-to-russia-intercontinental-playoff-2nd-leg-report/

The game: Australia 3 - Honduras 1 (Australia qualify)

In my preview to this game I said if Honduras play like they did in the 1st-leg they will lose 3-0. They played like they did in the 1st-leg and were losing 3-0 until the final minute, when they bundled over a consolation goal to make it 3-1.

Don’t let the high goal tally make you think the Socceroos have fixed their scoring problems; all 3 goals were set pieces rather than being scored from general play.

Expenses and bets

Winner winner chicken dinner! I spent 939 mBTC to follow the Socceroos on both legs of the intercontinental playoff against Honduras. I have won 947 mBTC on a bet for Australia to qualify. That is after I had similar success in the Asian qualification playoff against Syria.

I have also had the time of my life with amazing travel experiences, caught up with old friends and family, made new friends, visited awesome places, tried delicious food and generally lived the dream!



Thanks for your positive comments guys, people are liking the pics so I made an image gallery with all the photos so far https://bitedge.com/blog/betting-my-way-to-russia-in-pictures/

For the Word Cup itself I have the Australia 3 game team specific ticket and will be able to calculate the expenses soon after the draw in December.

Intercontinental playoff 1st-leg report

This post is the TLDR, full and updated details are here https://bitedge.com/blog/betting-my-way-to-russia-intercontinental-playoff-1st-leg-report/



The game: 0-0

Honduras played poorly, particularly given they were the home team. All they offered was the long ball which defenses at this level can deal with. Even when they had the chance for a quick counter attack it usually took the form of a hopeful long pass. A team playing like that is counting on luck to help them score.

The bets and expenses

As detailed in my previous post I bet Australia to qualify at odds of 1.83. It is now up at odds of 1.43 which means the bet is much more likely to win now than it was before the first game.



San Pedro Sula Honduras

San Pedro Sula is like Gotham City without Batman. It’s a poor ugly industrial town and it feels a bit unsafe. Really it’s about the same as most unremarkable places in the developing world. It’s not as bad as sensationalist media says, but you would not choose to spend time here unless it was for work or family.

I am now in San Pedro Sula Honduras for the game on Friday I am nervous for the Socceroos but nothing will get decided until the 2nd-leg next week.

Expenses

The total expenses for going to both legs of the intercontinental playoff in Honduras and Australia is 939 mBTC, itemised in the post linked to above.

Bets

I have bet on “Australia to qualify” at odds of 1.8325. Risking 1135 mBTC to win 947 mBTC.

The game: Australia 2 – Syria 1 (Australia qualify)

Another unconvincing performance from the Socceroos. They dominated possession so overwhelmingly that they inevitably created a number of good chances. But they failed to finish all but 1 of them in the 90 minutes.

with this level of play they will find it tough to qualify against Honduras next month.

The bets

In this 2nd-leg my bet was "Australia to qualify" and we did just that. I got it on at odds of 1.155 and it closed at 1.11, so this was a great bet.

Winner winner chicken dinner! The expenses for this trip to Melaka Malaysia and Sydney Australia totaled 886 mBTC. The amount I won betting on the games totaled 886 mBTC!

Sydney Australia

The Socceroos could not have a better home base than Sydney and Stadium Australia is fantastic soccer venue.





Betting my way to Russia - Asian qualifiers: Conclusion

Well this has been an unqualified success! In the 1st-leg I discovered a gem of a town in Melaka Malaysia. In the 2nd-leg I caught up with friends and family in Sydney. I watched my team, the Socceroos, get 2 good results and I traveled in style.

I paid for it all with bitcoin I won betting on the games. If I can keep this up all the way though the World Cup in Russia it will be a dream come true.

Sorry I did not update the thread sooner, for some reason I did not get notifications so I thought no one replied. I will check more often now.

This post is the TLDR, full and updated details are here https://bitedge.com/blog/betting-my-way-to-russia-asian-playoff-2nd-leg-preview/

Expenses

Total of 886 mBTC spent on my trip to Malaysia and Sydney. I already won 448 mBTC on the 1st-leg leaving 438 mBTC left to win.

Bets

I have bet on “Australia to qualify” risking 2826 mBTC to win 438 mBTC. I got the bet on before the 1st-leg at odds of 1.155. The same bet is now up at 1.11.

Just like my bet in the 1st-leg this means I have a value bet with positive expectation so I am happy with the bet no matter what the end result.

Asian playoff 1st-leg report

This post is the TLDR, full and updated details are here https://bitedge.com/blog/betting-my-way-to-russia-asian-playoff-1st-leg-report/

The game: 1-1 draw

Conditions where hot and humid with not a whiff of breeze all night. The pitch was slow and a bit bobbly due to the cow grass they use.

The quality of football was abysmal. Neither team deserve to make it to the World Cup playing like that.

The bets

My "Double chance: Draw or Australia" bet won me 448 mBTC. More than half the cost of the full trip

Melaka Malaysia

Wow, what an awesome place! This is a vibrant living old Asian colonial pirate town. It’s full of character but is not a tourist trap. It’s modern without being overrun by development and it’s preserving its history without becoming a museum piece.

Expenses

Total of 886 mBTC spent on my trip to Malaysia and Sydney.

Bets

A few days ago I made “Double chance: Draw or Australia” bets at odds of 1.23/-345 for more than enough to cover my trip to Malaysia. Now that bet is into 1.15/-667. So I am off to a great start, loving Melaka Malaysia, and looking forward to going to the game tomorrow

ITT I will try to follow my team to the World Cup in Russia, and pay for it all with bitcoins I win betting on the tournament!

Given my team is Australia I am including both Socceroos’ home and away qualifying playoffs. First against Syria for the last qualification spot from Asian. Then our intercontinental playoff against the 4th ranked North American side.

Those 2 qualification playoffs and the tournament itself make this a 3-part project. I will treat the expenses, and therefore the winning bets required, separately for each part.

The expenses

Full details will be posted on each parts posts. I will pay with bitcoin as much as possible including Expedia for accommodation and CheapAir for flights. Where I cannot pay with bitcoin directly I will use my Bitpay visa debit card.

The bets

Full details will be posted on each part’s posts. I will bet wherever I see value. For the qualification ties I might simply bet on Australia to win through. In the tournament, itself I might use these betting strategies with a stop loss.

I will bet at whichever of the top ranked bitcoin sportsbooks has the best odds on the bet I want to make.
