I think after all the dust settles FD, and DK are the best. Sugarhouse and Bet Rivers (Sister sites) are the best for Nascar so they get a lot of use by me as well.

Thanks for the info!

Games I am taking tonight.

Pacific -2 feels like free money, but when it feels like free money (see Bradley last night), it typically means it will be tight throughout. They did beat LMU by 12 in the first matchup. Pacific has also won 6 of their last 7, while LMU is 2-5 in that stretch. It will be a close game, but I like the -2 for Pacific.

Delaware +4 is a risky play that I like tonight, despite Charleton having a 8 game H2H winning streak against them. Delaware is just a better team lately, winning 8 of their last 10, but Charleton has went 4-6 in that same stretch. I know Charleton won the first matchup by 12, which is why I think this is a risky play, but Delaware is stronger offensively, so I am riding the hot (and popular) hand here, which means it will be a let down.

Thats all I have right now. I haven't been able to research as extensively today, but I will likely add one more to the card tonight.

What state?

[CC_123]

Man, oh man, Delaware. C'mon! What a blown lead that was. I was feeling good about that one when they were up double digits with 5 minutes left.

Disagree on free money, watch the rollover because it often could be 10x and it's more likely you'll lose your original $500 than cash positive with the bonus

Well, off to a 0-2 start tonight. Took Michigan live on the ML when they went on their run to go down just three. I thought they would keep rolling, but I was wrong.

I also grabbed Illinois -5.5 live early on. Looks like that could be a sweat. Also added Colorado -8.5 before that game started because Cal has been so brutal offensively and Colorado is solid defensively, but apparently not tonight as they have started the night off shooting 61% and 80% from beyond the arc, so that is looking like an early loss as -8.5 is hard to cover with how Cal is shooting right now. Even if Cal comes back to the norm, which they should, it will still be a tough cover. I made a bad read on that game, unfortunately.

Illini should come through to ight

[CC_123]

Going to need a 21 point swing in the second half by Colorado, which I just don't see happening with how poorly they have played and how well Cal has shot. Chalking this one up as a big fat L.

I'm not an online gambler. When I'm not in Vegas or the OTB for ponies I call in my bets

My bank denies deposits / withdraw with online gambling

How do people set up accounts online with their banks?

My CC denies deposits too

No bets for me tonight! Too busy today to do research but I bought a box of 2017-18 Optic Basketball with some of my winnings from this week.

Its not 10x rollover on any book in PA. Everything is first bet risk free or 1x play through with the exception on the Bet America book that I advised to hold off on playing.

Never got Michigan... Had a good day compared to two days ago. 5-1; however I had a few heart poputations this AM because of Monfils > Joker. Monfils is playing absolute monster tennis right now. Thank god Joker came back from down 3:6 in the TB to win the set. Now joker has to finish it off.

Get a local. I use paypal/cash app/venmo/cash with several books and have credit lines. It isn't for everyone, but I like not having to pony up cash... Using FD/Bookmaker/etc are great. They're offshore and CC's should process pending which state you're located in.

My PayPal and venmo connected to my bank of America and Chase

Those banks block online gambling transactions

My Visa cards too

The big books route you to a 'players card' which will push through on your credit card as well if you are having that issue. It seems the larger the card issuer the more issue pushing through sports bets on CC.

I always want to bet on CC for the simple fact my main card is 3% cash back. That covers a portion of the juice.

Tennelson- PM me how you are betting in Albany if you dont mind. I have a place over in Syracuse, along with my place in PA. So when I am up here, I am texting picks back to PA to be put in. VPN's lock me out. Interested to hear how you are doing it a few hours east.

Just a few things on this... You're going to get flagged if you are trying to send to an online site. If you send to your local book; you wouldn't have that problem... They aren't going to be flagged as one of the largest operating offshore gambling businesses around.

[tennelson55]

Anyone betting through a fanduel, draftkings, bookmaker, crisis, bet365, bovada, etc are going to get flagged when you are trying to send payments to them. Odds are you're going to have to wire money across if you really want to bet with them (I'm in NY and I never had an issue sending to them via CC), but it's so much easier to send to book that isn't as large as them. I do all my transactions through PayPal using my card. Never had an issue.

The withdrawl process using paypal/venmo is soooo much easier. Going through a large book withdrawl process will make you pull your hair out FYI

[persona]

One of the easier wins of the week that was much needed.




Kent state vs Ohio will either go way above 150+ or under 130.




Locked this in for tomorrow and lot of value everywhere in the morning tomorrow in soccer.
Good luck to all this weekend.
