    very few times they are better, and most all season they were worse...although they have gotten closer last few months from what i see

    just depends on what ur prefrences are though...i couldnt live withput H2Hs now

    every1 says how much of a hassle it is and its bad in U.S, but i never have any hassles getting paid....havent been stiffed either in my whole offshore career (14 years)...paying to get ur money isnt great, but its not very expensive either imo

    that said i dont use checks for payouts either, i want money in my hand quickly, p2p or dc wire are only methods i ever use
    I might fund 5dimes again one of these days, but since LV went mobile, I have just stuck with them. For what I bet, the LV books are very comparable.

        if i just leave money in a offshore account it doesnt feel the same to me.. may sound odd but thats the way i feel

        when the winnings are actually in my possesion, i do alot better with the money than just leaving them in an account til i needed somthing...so even though i think its pretty safe offshore, for me im just a better manager of my money when i have it and am smarter with what i do with it

        leave plenty in case i lose 1-2 weeks in a row cause dont want to have to deposit just cause i lose a race, but depending on when and amount i will,and ill usually immedialtley ask for a withdrawls

          They have gotten closer but H2H still better at 5 dimes. Keep for NASCAR and hockey.

          last year kept track during hockey using dimes over books here was $1175 swing

                  I don't bet head to heads.

                  What books were you comparing to? Hockey ML's are usually very close to 5dimes. At one of the books out here at least. Not sure how you bet hockey, but I know underdog ML's are very comparable.

                    Mgm books were closest on ml, totals and puck lines. Stations were awful

                                LVH is usually the best overall on underdog ML's for NBA and NHL.

                                You must bet big or high volume in NHL to see a $1200 difference.

                                I'm interested to see how NBA is at Cantor. Only caught tail end of season last year at Cantor.

                                  Yep. Deposit and withdraw like a bank.

                                  I can't wait until all book owners release a mobile app. Especially LVH.

                                  I do both. On phone and in person, but hate in person route.

                                    they were decent first part of nhl last year then lines seemed to dip. Not huge nba bettor but may change with no hockey

                                          Over the computer is what I needed the last 8 or so years, because I had my son and couldn't just take him to put in bets. So offshore did me good during that time. Now that he is 10, I can just leave him home for 20 or so minutes if I need to place a "in-person" bet. Mobile apps have made me lazy though, making it a hassle to drive to a book and deal with idiots.

                                                    No. I was talking when you go to casino to make deposit or withdrawal.

                                                      I think so. You would think eventually they all would have to come out with some type of personal betting.

                                                        Mike, looking forward to your Props threads also.
                                                        Do you ever bet on the prop for Lee Corso's pick?

                                                        I like the underdog play this week...
                                                        902 Lee Corso picks LSU to win* +450 vs Lee Corso picks Alabama to win

                                                        In the 2 LSU Bama games last year, Corso picked LSU. This weeks game is in Death Valley.

                                                          thanks GP, post any underdog player props there if u like any! (havent started thread yet)

                                                          no ive personally never bet that Corso prop, but if i did i would go with the +450 just for risk/reward, but honestly have no idea the chances of who he will pick
