    We'll see, it's a cross between competition and profit.

    Sports could could get ugly for a few years, if they aren't already.
    I agree. However, the UK model has shown gambling move from betting in shops and on location to betting online. All the UK books have had to move their online operations offshore to tax havens such as Gibraltar, Malta, etc in order to avoid tax and lower running costs. It's hard to see a US book paying US state or federal taxes along with US wages and rent and then still being able to compete with big books that don't have those costs.

    Obviously my understanding of US law is very limited but my guess is the US market will be dependant on what happens to the Wire Act.

Doesn't competition usually bring prices DOWN? What makes you think the prices will go up? If legal states can't provide better prices than what is currently offshore I don't see any way that offshore books go out of business. They'll only go out of business if the legal states can AT LEAST match their prices. I may have overlooked something... please tell me what I am overlooking.
      If wager a large amount that more customers than not would pay -110 local if it were safe, than pay -105 overseas book

        They do not want $10 players anyway no profit

        Most books want $100 or more players and those will never leave because of massive low juice saving vs vegas or any other legal shop
        I agree.

          and some C/B books will go under due to the squares leaving while the sharps stay for the best price


          basically common sense. i expect offshore C and B books to make 1 last push for this fall

          I don't give 2 shits about the prices in the store. You said... as I put in bold "Offshore has no chance to survive."
          If you want to wager on that... let me know.

              I quoted "bc price is going up"
              My apologies. I thought you were referring to the Prices at sportsbooks.

              I don't know what kind of work you do but if I were you I would try to get a job at the White House. You have all the qualifications needed(according to Trump). You lie and insult people constantly and you kiss up to Trump as much as you possibly can. AND anyone that EVER disagrees with you you immediately insult them and label them regardless of whether the label is true or not. Content is completely unimportant you. It's all about the show for you... you would rather have people THINK you are awesome than actually be awesome. You're all show and no content... just like Trump. You're constantly trying to get other people in trouble but you cry like a little baby every time you are in trouble yourself. You're constantly trying to blame others for your own actions. Show Trump some of your posts here on SBR and I'm pretty sure he would give you a job at the White House that you are completely unqualified for. Good luck to you.
