Is Sports Betting Legal in South Korea?

Sports betting in Korea – foreign bookies vs the sports TOTO. One of the underrated sports betting offering is the Volleyball Toto. The lottery matches two teams and bettors must correctly choose the score for the set and the winning margin for the first set. Another sports South Koreans and expats can bet on is the Golf Toto. In this game, punters can choose a particular player as he plays against 11 more golfers. The bet is placed on whether the player will win, lose, or force a draw against each of the 11 players.

South Koreans can place their bets on horse racing, bicycle racing, lotteries, and Toto sports betting. While the country has a whole lot of land-based casinos, locals are allowed to enter only one. They must be 18 years old to legally bet. The South Korean government places a withholding tax of 22 percent to 30 percent on winnings from lotteries. All other gambling wins are non-taxable. The government, on the other hand, collect tax revenues from operators. Koreans can legally bet on football, volleyball, basketball, baseball, golf, and Ssirum in two ways: Sports Toto or pari-mutuel betting and Sports Proto or fixed odds betting. In Sports Toto, the punters can place their bets into a pool. Half of the pooled bet accounts for operation costs, duty, and profit margins while the remaining half is paid to the winner of the bet.

There are two different options to bet on the internet. The first is Asian bookies which support Korean language, offer accounts in South Korean won (KRW) and accept local bank transfer with no fee. www.dafabet.com is the easiest Asian company to deposit with. You can register an account, click live chat and ask the operator for their bank details. Then simply transfer the money via online transfer. If you only bet soccer (football) Asian bookies are a great option. You will find all the Korean leagues, plus English Premier League (EPL), La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, and all others. You’ll find tennis and American sports such as NBA basketball and MLB baseball are covered too. If you are however interested in betting other Korean sports such as basketball, baseball and volleyball you will probably be disappointed by the fact these are not well covered (if covered at all) by the major Asian bookies.

Volleyball Toto is my personal favorite. This matches two teams together and you select 1) the correct set score and 2) the winning margin of the first set (2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7+). When this was a new game (2008-2010) if you boxed all possible set scores with all first set winning margins of 2 and 7+ you would have made an ROI of 75%. (This was amazing and sharp bettors made a lot on this). This is gone as the market has matured, but there are still inefficiencies. For casual bettors, what is offered online at 1Xbet for volleyball provides much more value – still there is room for pros to exploit market inefficiencies with this toto game. Golf Toto -There are several games in Golf Toto, one of my favorites pairs one player against eleven others. You select if he will win-draw-or lose against each player. A trick to finding +EV wagers is to pick him to beat 10 players and to lose to an eleventh who is a contender but not expected to win. This is essentially predicting first and second, and for the first choosing one of the lesser popular players with a chance. For casual bettors again online offers better odds. There is however two more golf toto games that are decent as far as lottery is concerned. These are 1) Special Game – predict 5 or 7 player’s 1st round score and 2) Win/Draw/Loss Game – Predict 5 matches’(10 player) Win-Draw-Lose.

South Korea is a country with a blossoming Bitcoin scene and authorities do not restrict the use of Bitcoin in the country. A number of news pieces were published June last year about a South Korean Bitcoin gambling company, Satoshinori beta testing its products meant to cut the firm a piece of the estimated $49b East-Asian online gambling market (illegal included)*. The company would’ve operated under the same assumption as many other Bitcoin casinos – namely, that as Bitcoin is not a currency, therefore Bitcoin gambling is legal, or at least not explicitly illegal, even in countries with laws otherwise prohibiting online gambling.

한국은 꽃이 만발한 Bitcoin 장면이있는 나라이며 당국은 Bitcoin 사용을 제한하지 않습니다. 작년 6 월 한국의 비트 코인 (Bitcoin) 도박 회사 인 사토시 노리 (Satoshinori) 베타 테스트 결과, 동아시아 온라인 도박 시장 (불법 포함) * 49 억 달러 규모의 제품을 테스트했다. 회사는 다른 많은 Bitcoin 카지노와 동일한 가정하에 운영했을 것입니다. 즉, Bitcoin은 통화가 아니므로 Bitcoin 도박은 합법적이거나 적어도 온라인 도박을 금지하는 법률이 적용되는 국가에서도 명시 적으로 불법이 아닙니다.
