    Who Will Go Back To Locals?
    We are about 200 days away from online gambling to be gone totally, will you quit betting or go to a local?

    I am going to hang it up and concentrate on the horses more.

    What are you going to do in 200 days?

        I'd move before I'd quit. Wouldn't be an easy decision but I'd rather have a job I love than go back to what I had doing the 8-4:30 gig as an accountant.

          The only problem with my book is that he has accounts online for when he gets alot of one-sided action. He might be in the same predicament we are.

            I never completely cut out using the locals around here. I just got spoiled by the reduce juice at Pinnacle. But if need be, I will go back to full time locals. Little easier for me to do.

              I'll go back to betting at actual sportsbooks before I'd ever use a local...but not gonna need to worry about it because we will get through this...

                  Agree Pags , locals suck, and Ill just start turning more and more of my attention to stock trading before id ever go back to a local. 90% wouldnt even know how to set an asian handicap line even if you explained to them 10 times.

                      Hunter I just read everything and I know the gov't is making this a top priority, they were relentless trying to pass this thing so not going to forget about it.

                        So nice waiting to see what last move cris and pinny make so you can get that bet in at 1:04 for a 1:05 start. Unless i can use a local that has an online sportbook website where i can make wagers via the internet. I will turn my attention to investment elsewhere whether it be stocks, real estate, frachise businesses or what have you.
                        I do have a close friend of mine that plays with a local on credit. His site is msg.com or something. I personally never played, because of no reduced juice and 20 cent mlb lines, but he does get paid cash as they meet every thursday. Will be something i look into i guess before ever having to deal locals over the phone.

                            nosuzieno, I have to agree with you on that one. I've heard some doozie bad beat stories over the years on collection day.

                                I don't recommend using a local whatsoever...too risky...unless someone could come up with a SBR local ratings guide...

                                  I've got one lined up just in case. Old one I used to use for years before I started online. I don't think I will need him though, I think all will be ok

                                                    ^^ TSRH. i gotta start lookin at dates of threads with all these old ass bumps! i almost crapped my pants while reading. then i saw pags respond and a little light went off that this was not current

                                                    edit: but i've always wondered, how does one go about finding a local? not like you can just look in the yellow pages!
