What's nice about Vegas is if I get into a dispute on a bet, I know I'm going to have a fair grievence process (Nevada Gaming Control). If I have a beef with 5Dimes, it's basically, "How is Tony feeling that day?".

Yes, I can complain to SBR, but they don't have the teeth on offshore that NGC has on the Vegas books to force a payout payout in favor of the player if they got screwed over.

Do you think what your saying is somewhat an over exaggeration when it comes to dealing with offshore places that are good? You know your just complaining for no reason about this.

Honestly, I personally have had few problems with offshore and will likely stick with offshore once gambling comes to my state (short of making a Sunday at the local casino watching NFL with a group of buddies). I love being able to bet in the comfort of my own home at juice that does not feel like a ripoff while having more privacy than I would betting at a local casino.

With that said, that doesn't mean offshore doesn't have its faults and that they shouldn't be kept in check or criticized either. For example, for being such big money operations (as certain posters like to claim) they sure do seem to have antiquated websites like 5Dimes (the 1990's called, they want their interface back) and BetOnline (which still isn't even working after months of issues). There's also dealing with all of the hoops to transfer money offshore compared to simple ACH deposits/withdraws like with Twinspires when betting the Triple Crown or Breeders Cup.

I have a problem with people here who seem deify offshore like they are infallible and refuse to acknowledge the flaws and risks of offshore while denigrating the legal books nonstop as if they have a self-interest in protecting the offshores.

It's not like there hasn't been an instance of a reputable book burning people (see BetIslands). In Vegas, that wouldn't happen. As of right now, all I can do is trust offshore that they'll pay me and that they won't rip me off on a bet. A lot of the good books have operated for years to earn our trust, but my point is there's nothing to stop offshore from abusing that trust. At least with onshore, I don't need to worry about that.

Basic, probably gets the job done just fine.

My question, how will they handle traffic on say a big Saturday or Sunday minutes until game time?

I suppose fine, given their experience, but NFL, especially 10 minutes before kickoff is nuts.

If I lived in NJ would not play at any

I like top shelf mobile and web advanced software and you can only find that offshore

Bets over the limit are usually approved within a few minutes, but I found it funny that they don't list limits.

"The DraftKings SportsBook does not list limits as they vary based on events, outcome liquidity, odds, time to event etc."

Risk management keeping their options wide open, even if they have hard rules set behind the scenes...which they likely have some guidelines.

Smart, since they can get away with it.

It is a matter of time before consumer protection action is taken by congress, or at least the lobbyist get into a battle over it.

Good luck!

It’s just a minor annoyance thus far since all my NASCAR bets were approved after a brief delay.

I also did a couple small MLB bets.

I only bothered looking today because of the match bet they offered (first bet up to 200). NASCAR offerings solid. MLB not worth bothering with because 5 dimes has better odds on just about everything. Have not looked at other sports yet.

Good report

Both sides have flaws but nothing wrong with offshore books. I like how people say they get to go to a casino place a bet and get cash in hand, well guess what you get to do the same offshore if you wanted it that way because of Bitcoins, just use a bitcoin only book and take it out after each bet, once you have bitcoins its like cash in hand. People getting way to happy for nothing about this legalized crap. I can admit sometimes dealing with certain stuff can be annoying but its worth it to me some of the hassles that happen. Just like Betonline, which I will probably continue to use even if the ddos issues still goes on for a while, I love that book way to much...

betonline beautiful software and easy to read

Draft Kings

OMG I feel bad for NJ PLAYERS

agree MLB lines make fan duel look like pinny. Draftkings horrible baseball lines

draftkings NFL has off numbers.

still too early to tell about football though going forward

[Mrtop7]

If I lived in NJ would not play at any

I like top shelf mobile and web advanced software and you can only find that offshore

well the others in AC did not go online yet. They will be fine for football with MGM and golden nuggett .. lets not forget bet365. They are huge but bad for MLB


draftkings pays quick 2 days back in account.

No shit. You're paid to post on a board who's source of income is the offshore industry.

Ya don't say that you prefer online books.

Bookmaker makes more than some Fortune 500 companies

No. No they don't.

You can't be this much of a moron.

To crack the Fortune 500, a company would have to have revenue of around 23 Billion.

I'm pretty goddamn sure Bookmaker didn't crack the 23 billion mark in revenue.

beautiful software


what about the relentless threads on security breaches???

[firedawg]

JJ is clueless
Bet Online has taken a huge hit due to all the software issues

[mrpapageorgio]

Posts by the SBR Court Jester like that about how "beautiful" BetOnline's software is right now is why I probably rip on offshore more than necessary simply to counterbalance his propaganda.

million dollar bad beat hit at BOL a ways back.....no follow up report from sbr or BOL itself....one would think they would want to promote that

New Jersey wagering is getting slammed across the United States because of terrible lines

good one loser....flourishing. Check any major publication

[johnnyvegas13]

All we can hope for is that as this spreads competitive markets will force better lines

tbh I don't have much faith

vegas and offshore remain supreme

take a look at Draftkings money lines for NFL. The favorite in some games are lower than pinny.

Outside of that I agree the place is no good.

No. No they don't.

I'm pretty goddamn sure Bookmaker didn't crack the 23 billion mark in revenue.

the 2018 fortune 500 threshold was $5.4 billion, not 23 billion

not sure exactly what bookmaker has in revenue... but if average bets are 2000/day at $100/bet, that's only $73 million in revenue

we're in the slow season for now, so average bets are probably quite a bit higher, still nowhere near enough to crack fortune 500

most people do not know what a good line is. That is why fan duel is very busy. Sad but true.
