The very popular online sportsbook BetOnline.ag has been down all day today 10/16/20. The people at BetOnline are aware of the issue and are working to restore the site hopefully well before tonight's action starts at 6pm ET. Tips for craps.
- BET ONLINE Blackjack Steals from its players Terrible experience with customer service. Multiple times I played at the Live Blackjack table and almost as if on cue every time once deep into a game the dealer would mysteriously begin to just go super human fast as if throwing cards instead of dealing and the game would say reconnecting yo server.
- Over the past 24 hours, we've seen some of the biggest gambling sites in the country unexpectedly shut down. That includes sites like BetOnline, SportsBetting.ag, Super Slots, and Wild Casino. It's not common to see sites like SportsBetting.ag crashing, yet there seems to be a major technical issue involved.
- April 15, 2012 Update – Below is an archived post regarding BetOnline Poker issues. Please understand BetOnline is NOT recommended for casual sports bettors. If you're looking for a 3-in-1 alternative (Sports/Casino/Poker) we suggest www.bovada.lv, who ranks great on our Sportbook Rankings and tops on our list of Best US Poker Sites.
- On their website, BetOnline claims that 'their team has been working together since 1991, offering full service to clients throughout the world. That's quite a claim. That's before the internet was really mainstream, let alone incredible innovations like Bitcoin and blockchain technology.

The error message people are getting has alternated between a BetOnline page with a computer generated error message stating that the Cloudflare connection is working and that the server is returning an error and another message which simply states 'You do not have permission to view this directory or page.'.
Betonline Not Working
It should be noted that there were string of outages with BetOnline a couple of years ago due to a DDoS attack. There is no confirmation if this is what is happening here. BetOnline des employ Cloudflare, who specializes in preventing these sorts of attacks. Coincidentally (or not) Cloudflare just sent this message to all of its clients.
UPDATE: 2:14 PM – BetOnline has confirmed they are down because of cyber attack. Here is the message they just sent out to customers: 'Valued customers, we are offline due to an aggressive cyber attack. Play star fall. We're taking every measure to resolve the issue and we will be fully operational again as soon as possible.'.
Our IT team is actively working on the current website issue!
Thank you for your patience.
