    What Would You Do If There Were Legal Brick & Mortar Gambling?

    Final Poll: 56% of 3K+ voters would stop playing @ offshore online books to bet at legal brick-and-mortar book (no online); 28% would bet at both

    I would think there would be no reason to bet online unless they were reputable, and their deals were out of this world.

    Where do you get the better numbers/prices? Brick and mortar at that moment - you have access to one number that takes a long time to go get. Nobody can win if you have access to one number and it takes 20 minutes to get it - even live betting at a brick and mortar - one lousy number is worthless.

    The best thing about having an actual shop you have to get off yer ass to place a wager is.....

    harder to chase, bet quick, bet late.

    Obviously, way more options @ a good on-line book for real sharp guys who actually make money. 1-2%.
    It is much easier to control your BR and downside using a shop.

    My goal for the last 5 years or so has been to have some action and break even over the course of the year.

    No reason to bet online. You walk in to the brick and mortar..place a bet..have lunch and beers then before you pay the check you collect winnings. No hustle of bitcoins, wire transfers, **, and terrible customer service.

    Then why do you go to Vegas every other weekend and place $7200 bets on horrible lines?
