    Why Is Offshore Still Way Ahead Of Legal Sports Betting??

    In every aspect basically except maybe deposit/withdraws and that is only because legal although cash only for most part in 95% Of Vegas Books


    What do they not get??

    Offshore is indeed superior to LV in every way except withdrawing (deposits are easy anywhere) but the ease of withdrawing is about 99% of the game. If you can't withdraw your money or have to pay money to withdraw, you shouldn't play in the first place. The offshore books are, for the most part, a bunch of cockroaches using the UIGEA as an excuse to keep your money.

    Convenience - players have a better chance to beat offshore than you have in beating Vegas - juice-bonuses-range of offers, etc.

    Offshore can never beat Vegas in customer service. When was the last time a Vegas book took more than 2 seconds to cash out a winning ticket?

    Well maybe due to the fact sports gambling is only legal in Vegas and not everyone can just hop on a plane anytime they want to throw down $50 on the knickerbockers

    Offshore has the luxury of stiffing people when they choose to. Brick and mortar shops in casinos do not.

    Bet Islands anyone?

    If it was legal to bet anywhere else, I'm sure many would use their local shop to place bets, knowing their money is secure.

    Asian books are great for soccer(football) no doubt. Pinnacle Sports is the best/ most respected in my opinion due to sheer volume.

    This.

    Offshore books like to jack players around with payouts so that they lose any money that they won.

    Deposit Rollovers are for suckers.

    Many times, William Hill, for example, often times does not have enough cash on hand to pay.
