Question about Windsor Casino in Canada

sickler · 11-23-12, 01:09 AM

As of now it's illegal to offer single game wagers.

There's a bill to allow it but it might get axed: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/windso...or-casino.html

It is absolutely fukkin mind boggling in 2012 we're still debating this shit. Fukkin old fukks in the govt saying we're going to vote against the bill can suck my fukkin dick. There's already billions being bet worldwide you're telling me they think games could be fixed because fukkin they wanna pass a bill in Canada. Fukk me if games are fixed they'd be fixed now. GOVT would profit so much on this and people would be happy not having to fukkin play these bullshit proline scam shit where you have to parlay games at shitty payouts. Un fukkin believable these dinosaurs in parliament represent this fukkin country. Wish I could drag all these fukks who vote against it and put a bullet right through their head.

Payouts wouldn't be Pinnacle-style if the government controls single game wagers. Expect a 40 cent line, would be lucky to get 30.

Lots of vig, just like in the OLG pools. They keep 40% for themselves

Also, parlays aren't "TRUE" vegas parlay payouts. The odds are considerably decreased.

I just want to be able to have the option to bet a single game like in Vegas is that too much to ask for?

I'll take your action on NFL spreads.

visitor +3.5, -120
home -3.5, -120

That's the reaming you can expect if the bill isn't squashed.

CanuckG · 11-23-12, 01:51 AM

Yeah I'll stick with pinnacle

What r y'all crying about

sickler · 11-24-12, 07:01 PM

Canuck, I don't have inside info but I highly doubt it would be a standard 20 cent line. Operating expenses are high and there's too much greed. I expect 40 cent line.

"I've talked to people individually who indicate that they're going to vote against it," Conservative Sen. Norman Doyle said in an interview earlier this month. "I'm thinking that we probably have enough people in the Senate to kill it."

They likely do have enough people to squash it and that just deepens my belief that most of these politicians don't have a clue. It'd be such a cash cow for the government its unbelievable but it does speak volumes for how big a cash cow the proline lotteries already in place are.

They are, every day globally. The irony is (and to your point) the people that alert the sporting authorities that 'the fix is in' are generally the highly regulated, legal, sportsbooks.

Roger Goodell wouldn't give a fukk if Heritage claimed there was a fix in the NFL, but if Betfair Security Dept. made the claim it would be the lead on Sportscenter.

My point is, you're right, the politicians are fukin idiots.

They have those betting slips where you bet parlays
