22BET review: one of the widest esports books on this site
22BET is a Curaçao-licensed sportsbook and casino, and one of the most widely ranked bookmakers on esportranker: 21 pages. Besides CS2, Dota 2, LoL and Call of Duty, it covers fighting games (Tekken, Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Injustice 2), EA Sports FC, Rocket League and World of Tanks.
The cashier is broad too: 41 deposit and 25 withdrawal methods in our data, with Skrill, Neteller, AstroPay and Bitcoin on both sides. This review covers Dota 2 markets, payments, bonus maths and alternatives.
Our verdict: a strong all-round choice when you bet on more than one title, including fighting games and sports sims. Check prices on the main titles against one other book.

LiveExample data
What a sports welcome bonus costs to clear
The live headline offer for 22BET is on the card at the top of this page. Its full sports terms were not confirmed for this review, so the worked example uses common terms on a $100 bonus to show what wagering costs at esports margins.
$41
expected net value
Bonus $100 · 10x turnover · singles at odds 1.80+
Turnover costs the margin on what you bet: 10 × $100 = $1,000, and 5.9% of that is $59.
What it means: wager with singles on match winner, the cheapest esports market; accumulators multiply the margin you pay.
Net value with singles
with accumulators: −$66
$41
Wagering
10x bonus (example)
Every extra 5x of wagering costs about another 5% of turnover at a 5% margin.
Minimum odds
1.80 (example)
