Dafabet Sports Review – Is It Really Sharp Friendly Asian Giant?

Dafabet Sportsbook Review

 

Dafabet is one of the Giant Asian bookies and is said to be sharp punter friendly mainly because of its high limits on all football bets.

Dafabet is well known for being the first mover of Asian Handicaps and provides good live betting coverage.

Dafabet has aggressively sponsored major sports (football, Cricket & Basketball) clubs as below;

This massive sponsorship has contributed to developing a foothold in the UK & Europe as well as establishing the Dafabet brand in the home Asian markets (now extending into Latin America).

See the Dafabet key facts below;

Dafabet Value for Sharp Punters – 3 Advantage Plays

 

As briefly said at the beginning, Dafabet is said to be good for sharpness mainly because;

  • Higher stake limit & Lower margin with less over-round (vigorish/juice) than the industrial average (especially in the football market)
  • No account restriction policy (see the next arbitrage section)

Let’s quickly assess how Dafabet can be used for 3 sports betting advantage plays

 

1) Sports Arbitrage

 

Sharp bookies are essential for sports arbitrage because they don’t restrict your account (see the best arbitrage software), some sharp bookies like Pinnacle even promote arbing

When we prepared the List of Sharp Sportsbooks for Professional Punters, we sent an inquiry specifically checking about their Account Restriction Policies to over 100 bookies – see the below correspondence with Dafabet:

Inquiry

 

Questions:

I understand many bookmakers restrict member’s betting limits down to the amounts that are too small to keep playing such as $1 or 5 cents or even zero etc. They do it for so-called Sharp Bettors, namely:

  • 1) players using certain Casino winning techniques created by member’s own statistical analysis
  • 2) players exercising sports arbitrage betting or matched betting
  • 3) players simply achieve constant wins by luck for a long time

Note: Here, I’m not referring to any case of a player’s cheating / fraudulent activities but only legitimate gambling actions resulting in many or constant winnings (I’m sure arbitrage betting is completely legal), so please don’t touch any of your policies related to wrongdoing matters.

  • Do you have any chance to do Such a Restriction? Please say only Yes or No.
  • If you do, which of the above case 1) – 3) applies? Please name the number specifically (please don’t quote your policy that is usually quite vague, I would need your clear answer).

Appreciate your cordial assistance on this critical matter.

 

 

Answer:

Thank you for choosing Dafabet! With regard to your query, we do not cut betting limits since we do value our customers. If you plan on doing arbitrage with us you may do sohowever, we cannot give you any bonuses if engaged in such. If you need further assistance, please do not hesitate to let us know. Best regards, XXX Dafa Bet Customer Support

So, although we heard a few account restriction cases as indicated in the next Value Betting section, principally they accept arbitragers and given their higher limit, Dafabet may still fit this method. 

 

2) Value Betting 

 

According to Trademate Sports, (see how the value betting software works and review of their US Sports Package), Dafabet is identified as one of the best-performed bookies over the years.

However, they observe;

Recently SBOBET & Dafabet have been limiting customers a lot more frequently and basically changing their model to more of a soft bookmaker. We are hoping this is a temporary move and that after COVID they will resume normal service, but at the moment this is the current situation. All in all though, they will allow higher limits than your standard soft bookmaker. Let’s look at the data!

Their analysis indicates;

As you can see, it’s a lot harder to draw hard-firm conclusions from the Dafabet data as the sample size is simply not there for most of these sports, giving variance and randomness too much of an influence. Once again, Soccer looks good and we would recommend delving deeper into the big data tool to see exactly what’s working. The big thing to observe here is our performance on Basketball, a slight negative ROI after nearly 7,000 trades. So from just looking at this maybe it’s best to stay away from Basketball with Dafabet. But as always, take a deeper look into the big data tool and you might find that it’s a certain odds type or range that is affecting the results heavily.

Given Dafabet’s high limit as well as moderately competitive odds, you can obviously use it for value betting. 

 

3) Matched Betting 

 

Matched betting is all about exploiting soft bookies’ promotional offers, thus sharp bookies that normally don’t provide bonuses due to their low-margin business model are not appropriate for matched betting.
However, Dafabet regularly gives a welcome offer but unfortunately Not in the UK. Instead, you get a free bet offer;

Free Prediction Challenge – Burnley F.C. / Celtic F.C. / Cadiz C.F.

Dafabet offers a free bet upon correctly predicting the full-time score of 2 sponsoring football clubs of Celtic F.C. & Cadiz C.F.

Be noted that this is a Free promotion, you don’t need to bet any money but simply guess the score, enter your valid username and click on the yellow “SUBMIT” button, that’s it.

Go & Try Celtic Prediction;

Go & Try Cadiz Prediction;
dafabet cadiz freebet

Nothing costs you, just predict the correct goal. 
When you receive Free Bet which happens within 48 hours after the game finishes, you extract the cash from the free bet using the matched betting technique

BTW, Dafabet offers BOG (Best Odds Guaranteed) on the UK & Ireland horse racing, which will bring windfall profits to the matched bettors occasionally. 

 

 

Dafabet Sharp Bookmaker Wrap Up

 

As seen from the above, Dafabet seems to position itself just between Sharp and Soft Bookmaker. In other words, you can still use Dafabet for all 3 sports advantage plays. 

Given the fact that Dafabet is one of the most established & secured international betting giants, we can’t see any reasons for you to avoid including this sportsbook in your collection. 

 

We always value our readers’ feedback, if you have any opinion or suggestion on how to improve our site or any list of information you would like to see on our site or any questions you would like to ask, please let us know via contact.

 

BTW, if you use cryptocurrencies for sports betting, suggest taking a look at the List of Best Bitcoin Sports Betting Bookmakers, and Stake regularly offers Risk-Free bets, just FYI.

    The email reply they gave you is grossly inaccurate. I opened an account this week and got restricted after 2 bets.

    TWO BETS!

    How can they even remotely purport to be a sharp bookie with that.

    Admittedly it was horse racing so maybe they treat that as a different area of business compared to the Football etc. but still they should have said so in the reply to your email that horse racing and football punters are treated differently.

      Hi G,

      Many thanks for your input. Yes, your case must be fallen into our comment of “we heard a few account restriction cases as indicated in the next Value Betting section”. They may have been tightening their radar, thus we already deleted Dafabet in our List of Sharp Sportsbooks for Professional Punters guide, and just added a note which refers to your comment here. Just FYI.
