Best offshore sportsbooks for online betting?

If you're thinking about playing with 50 USD, I might suggest looking at Bet365. Right now, they’re offering a 100% match on your first deposit up to 100 USD. Essentially, they double your initial deposit up to a 100 USD cap. If you decide to go down that route, I’d strongly advise reading through the Terms and Conditions carefully, as there are certain requirements you'll need to meet before you can actually make a withdrawal. Once you've navigated that, you could also look into the "Mobile deposit" bonus, which is another 100% match, just capped at 50 USD.
Generally speaking, while Bet365's odds might be a little lower than what you'd find at Asian books or Pinnacle, they offer much deeper markets and arguably the most extensive live betting selection among all European sportsbooks.
I don't want to sound like I'm just singing their praises, though. If you start hitting significant withdrawals—I mean amounts well over a few hundred USD—you'll likely find yourself getting limited quite quickly. In my opinion, that's their only real drawback, because for a fresh account, their starting limits are more than adequate.
Regarding the Martingale strategy, Tominator already gave you an answer, and it looks like you've reached the right conclusion. 😉
Listen, betting guys, this isn't some hobby for me; betting is a business, just like any other. My advice would be to steer clear of online betting at places like Bwin or Bet365. The real headache usually comes down to withdrawing your money, among several other issues. Based on my own experience, I'd say stick to local US sportsbooks that offer online platforms; it's much easier to get your cash out.
