    Forget the -110 yank fvckwits, not interested in them.

    In 2008 the real sports bettors are exchange traders.

    I didn't know you bet?

    I try not to ever speak in absolutes. If I have a play that has a strong edge at -110 and that's the best odds I can get, I will bet it. Same thing at -158

        Even though I feel the exchanges are the best way to go these days Jamie. I feel their still is value having a having a low vig book (-105)funded. Because believe it or not for U.S. residents we only have 2 exchanges (Tradesports & Matchbook) available to us.

          80% of Americans will always bet -110


          Too much of a hassle to bet at exchanges

          If your good -110 means nothing

                How do I go about setting up an account on exchanges from the U.S ? How do you fund your account ?

                    I wonder why more exchanges aren't entering the US market?

                    There is only two, so you would think that it would be a great opportunity. I'm sure Matchbook and Tradesports make a killing.

                    It'd be nice to have some more competition.

                      I think it'd be cool to be able to book someone's parlays at these exchanges too.

                      Someone could make an offer for a parlay and then the payouts could be negotiated via the software.

                                  Betfair is the option ? I have a home and a credit card in Ireland so I could sign up from there next time I'm home ?

                                        His analogy still stands though. Yes, DC is a shithole, but that would mean Iraq is a shithole in the middle of a desert, which is much, much worse.

                                        I think he was getting at the democracy, though. Or order.

                                          bet exchange is okay for only limited number of events. with sportsbook, you can always count on your wager will be matched.
