Now we just need the law to pass. Oh and there is a 36 percent tax on the revenue and a ten million dollar licensing fee. Not even worth doing it.

This is called pulling a "horse racing" except there are NO costs to put the product on, except electricity. Governments, SMHComment -

#8I agree with the driving part.Originally posted by jjgoldWho the heck wants to go drive somewhere to make a sports wager it’s absolutely ridiculous and if you when you have to drive back just the money in gas is terrible
For example... if Michigan was to approve sports wagering... would it be at the casinos??? Or... would you place wagers at convenient stores? Like where you'd buy lottery tickets?
Could you imagine going to a store and placing a sports wager???
I mean... I'm sure there would be limits of winnings before taxing... like maybe $250 a day or something??? Without giving your ID etc.
If you have your own system... and you're good at what you do... no better place to do sports wagering... than at home.Comment -

#10I agree that the tax will be passed to the bettor. I always figured -120.Originally posted by ChuckyTheGoatHope it happens.

It's too high, a lot of big money will flock to other markets and the public will be bigger part of the marketplace.
I may quit and focus elsewhere if I ever had to pay -120 or -125. I suppose it depends but -110 is acceptable to me for now.

#12-120 is acceptable if there are stale or off market lines... otherwise for average joe that can take a bonus and bet -110 that would be just another horrible decision (most gamblers make quite a few of those lol)Originally posted by KVBI agree that the tax will be passed to the bettor.

#13Do you think states will just go double juice for tax purposes?
How much do you think they'd allow you to win daily... without taxing you on the winnings?
I was sort of thinking they will stick with the normal -110 and tax you on small winnings.Comment -

#15The government already taxes your gambling winnings. There's no reason to think the rate would change. They can play a lot of games with those numbers though, between the players and the houses.Originally posted by TheMoneyShotDo you think states will just go double juice for tax purposes?

If it is legalized, it could be tracked more and much harder to hide winnings or "forget" to report them.
Of course, like all other casino games, specific transaction amounts may matter for tracking.
The bottom line is that the government is probably not expecting a lot of extra revenue from the players, just the books.
They could screw the player, making him pay taxes on every winning bet, with no chance of offsetting losses. This could be collected at the book, which is effectively the same a higher priced like -120 issue.Comment -

#16In ontario they have something called point-spread wagering.
You have to pay minimum 2 games. payout is as follows..
and if you get both point spread correct the pay out odd i believe is something like +100
and if get 3 out +300. its shit. and gets shittier the more games you play.Comment -

This is the key. They just instituted rule changes for withholding that made horse racing that much more palatable because you can skip out on reporting; the system was so unfavorable to the bettor before it was crazy.
That would be the only angle the new era of state sponsored sports betting. But if you guys are right and they require -120 as conventional vig, offshores will flourish, yes.Comment -

#21The State takes their share though. That's why there are State lotteries etc. The only reason why States would legalize sports gambling is to bring more revenue for that particular state.Originally posted by KVBThe government already taxes your gambling winnings.

Michigan (if they legalize sports wagering) is cheap as fuk... they would tax you on winning probably... $250 for the day... immediately.Comment -
