    Agree WynnBet is underrated. I racked up quite a lot of bonus money and comp dollars with them. Since I live near Encore Boston Harbor, the comp dollars will be useful this year.

    I’d say the WynnBet market share struggles since they don’t spend lots on ads and promos like the others.

      I fear once there is only DK and FD have stomped everyone out the mask will come off and they'll cripple limit anyone who remotely knows what they're doing to $4 a bet or whatever. I just hope the decent offshores will still be around.

        I think they’ll always be at least five per state

              They seem to be partnering with Caesar’s in some places. Their NJ license is through Caesars and now the opposite in MA is coming with Caesars getting theirs through Wynn. So I would wonder if Caesars would somehow absorb them later.

                The more the merrier for competition. I am sure NJ operating costs are adding up though.

                  Seems weird. Competitors and two two different major companies.

                    Yes and I don’t know how Caesars (or anyone) benefits from acquiring them. Most WynnBet customers probably have Caesars accounts already.

                      Baseball dimelines. Last year, not as much this year, they had pretty unique NBA lines. Easily picked up a free half point maybe 20% of the time.

                      Also heard they were trying to sell Wynnbet. None of the recreational bettors I know use it.

                        Wynnbet is good but the problem is the numbers do not work for them only in Vegas

                          FanDuel and Caesars. The rest are garbage.

                              Only the big boys are good in every state that’s it. All these little books are horrible.

                                  Will DK have ANY brick-and-mortar shops in Mass similar to the beautiful joint they built in the Connecticut casino?? The
                                  frickin company is based Boston. It's interesting, I have to bet at DK in New Hampshire and I don't believe they have a single building or human employee in the entire state. Can't even walk up to any window I'm aware of for a payout or company to customer interaction. They just mail me my checks. I swear, in a few years a good local that takes big bets and pays without issue will be WORTH HIS WEIGHT IN GOLD, just like twenty years ago

                                    So, the Wynn in Boston will have Ceasars and the joint out west in Springfield will have what.......an MGM operation? Forgive my ignorance, this chit gets confusing.

                                          DK should have stuck to DFS, they make so much $$$ off of these daily contests with no risk. 10% takeout of each pool they offer. Its like printing money

                                              True but the rake they make on DFS is even less than an online poker site makes. Even with the no risk since there are just hosting the contests and taking a cut, they are never going to go broke via people winning too much as we have seen over the years with how successful Vegas is raking in all that dough with people losing their ass.

                                                WynnBET had the best baseball lines by far. Hopefully they stay in business and continue.

                                                    WHats the advantage they have on bases? Better odds? Earlier openers? Lower vig? More options?

                                                      Consistently WAY better odds. On par with Bookmaker. Only in baseball. I'm very curious to see if that will continue this upcoming season. I'm also surprised that it's not more widely known.

                                                        Agreed, but I don't have a choice at the moment.

                                                              That's a joke, Scott. Been saying for a while that people would have to be criminally insane to bet into the 30-cent juice on Live-bets (-115/-115). Those lines have to come out of a formula, how do you beat -115?

                                                              Lining more than 20-cents pre-game is terrible. It's a sign that the oddsmaker sux. He's telling you that he doesn't want your action.

                                                                Wrong. It's pretty easy. Why do you think they make it 30 cents? But if it's off by enough, it's easy to overcome.
