Thoughts on WynnBet and Barstool

**Roscoe_Word** · 08-20-22, 07:41 AM

Well, we know the high vig, Reload.

I was at the joint recently, and the place is ready to go.

I think it could have been configured a little bigger cause it's gonna be madness when it opens.

Don't know much about bonuses, brother.

Even though I'm stayin offshore, will open an account here for the excitement of finally havin sports bettin.

Unfortunately, I don't think we're gonna be ready for the season.

Hey, have a great season, brother...................

Wynn app is pretty lame. Feels very 1990s to me. Barstool is meh. Heard of a bunch of disputes with them so eliminated their place in the rotation. BetMGM gives the best and most frequent bonuses to me these days. Often deposit 400 get 100 free cash added with 1x roll and bet $100 on a specific sport get a $40 freeplay on another etc. I find myself on BetMGM and Dkings the most these days.

I would recommend Wynnbet.They often have different #'s than the other books.Not the place for prop bets though.Very limited menu there.

Wynn a little better odds than Barstool
Barstool is horrific odds

-112 many sides USA sports lol under Kambi gambling which runs many books

Yes, Roscoe - I agree the setup at Encore is not big enough. Especially for NFL Sunday and other marquee betting days, I think many will be without seats there. It’s also not very comfortable and is more like sitting at tables in a food court. Hopefully they will learn and add some space - even some overflow seating in the ballroom would be useful.

Hope your season is a great one, too!

Good to know, JJ! Yes, Kambi seems pretty vanilla when I’ve seen it used.

Yes, topgame - Barstool has seemed that way based on what I’ve seen with others. I’d probably only bother if they gave a good initial bonus or giveaway. Probably will give Wynn a decent shot even if the app isn’t great since at least it would be tied to Encore nearby.

Thanks, dark star. I don’t do props much at all and it’s good if they have more opinionated numbers than others. Sounds like it will work well for me to at least try out.

SBR has some pretty thoughtful reviews of Barstool and Wynnbet covering a lot of aspects.

Thanks, Optional. Hopefully these will improve when Massachusetts is live as it should be a competitive market. Will report my own feedback once they get going.

Reload, not a day goes by when I think about the time you told JJ you left your wallet in the car at the diner.

Heard so many Negatives about Barstool, Portnoy has to pay all those employees and all the Pizza he eats. The only good thing about Barstool is Fran and high noon trivia.

Portnoy has nothing to do with Barstool

Entire company owned by Penn Gaming and lines managed by Kambi Gaming

**mcaulay777** · 08-20-22, 03:23 PM

Ok Now i know how he got that money from the sale i guess!

Is Wynn bet in Nevada? Have not heard anything about it

**jjgold** · 08-20-22, 07:28 PM

Wynn Bet is a Wynn
Nevada and many other states

Don't count on anytime soon MA getting sportsbetting. Maybe by early next year. Look how long it took for the casinos to finally be built.

**RobertAnthonyT7** · 08-20-22, 11:57 PM

WynnBET consistently has the best odds in NY and it’s not even close. I would assume they are the same nationwide. MGM lines are consistently the worst in NY, but they pay instantaneously.

**jjgold** · 08-21-22, 05:12 AM

Wynn the clear winner

Do they limit hard?

**El Nino** · 08-21-22, 05:05 PM

Wynn good for Bases and hockey. Really trash for futures, live betting, props, anything exotic. App is archaic looking and not the smoothest.

Barstool I've found to be decent in futures, great for golf. Good live betting and an assortment of props/exotics. Really smooth app. I find that it's up there top 5 for most lines. Just like anything else, shop around.

AZ also has like a dozen outs.

My Top 5:
Caesars
Barstool
Superbook
Fan Duel
MGM

I've found Draftkings is really only great for MMA parlays.

Barstool
Barstool cannot be mentioned in any list juice is horrible

**CanuckG** · 08-21-22, 05:13 PM

Wynn has in house trading so odds are bit better than your standard kambi/sb tech lines. They have limited markets so if you're only betting core markets you'll be fine. Way quicker to be limited at Barstool. Wynnbet has a terrible app/browser but if you can get past that they're okay. Don't expect much in the way of bonuses for either. Those days of free money are slowly going away as companies cut down marketing spend.

How are they for live football and basketball?

Baltimore Orioles -104 right now for Sunday night baseball. Lowest line if you like them in AZ. Like I said...shop around. Great rewards system. Not a lot of bonuses. Up there with the best first time deposit bonuses. Each shop has their pros and cons. Def worth having money in there as an out though.

**jjgold** · 08-21-22, 05:50 PM

Good report Nino

Barstool would be better/have more options than Wynn for live betting but worse prices. Barstool also would have a better up time for live markets with a slower countdown clock to confirm bets.

Barstool already limited me to next to nothing.

Wynn should be in my state at some point soon.
