    I do not give a fuk if Giants are -5 -140

          As dumb downded as this board has got since the point program, no way 50% would go for -140.

          betting into -140 line is not action, it's more like having an allergy to money.

                        It would have to be 100% safe though, no chance of confiscation or shut down

                              Well, lets put it thsi way.

                              Imagine that the US Goverment approves casinos to be built within the US.

                              But they will Charge the customer a 50% TAX of their winnings. So the casino gives you a -110 line you bet 110/100 you win 100 but then the casino charges you 50 for taxes so you risked 110/50 thats like you had , what a -210 line?

                              Would you play there??

                                      No chance in hell I bet at -140, but I agree with your point. Some would.

                                        well i dont think youd pay taxes every time you won....just if youre up at the end of the year, like an income tax

                                        that said i can't remember how it works at horse tracks and the irs window....id never been much on the ponies

                                            The book offer -110 lines you bet 110/100 you win and only get get 195.30(Risking and winnings)

                                            You have to pay 14.70 in taxes, so you actually only won $85.30

                                                  Yeah, we have tons of casinos and sportsbook.

                                                  That's Panama City, Panama on central america, not florida.

                                                  Goverment knows that casinos = TAXES + Jobs

                                                        Goverment knows that casinos = TAXES + Jobs
                                                        Also to protect Local games from being rigged, casinos are banned from offering lines on Local leagues and games

                                                          Hey JJ, did you get that 200 loan so you could go pro yet?

                                                          Actually, this sort of make sense. If you go bust at -110 lines, you'd go broke at -140 lines...just a little faster. Since it must only be about the action, you probably would play -140 lines.

                                                                Our government sports lottery has lines around -140 I think. And it's probably the most popular form of wagering here. It's disgusting. Most people are just clueless as to what is a good line.

Perhaps this is why the Government is trying to get all of these sportsbooks shutdown. The Government run Lottery only pays out .50 cents for every $1 it takes in. That's the equivalent of -200 lines ATS and O/U. If the Government ever does succeed in shutting down all US friendly Sporstbooks they will likely start their own and offer -200 lines on everything. Of course they will disguise it with a bunch of family friendly BS marketing and they certainly won't call it -200 even though that's exactly what it would be. With no competition there are bound to be a bunch of idiots that would play there.
