          Boston, why would you be betting offshore and not legal sites? The only people that really should be using the offshore sites are people who manipulate the pools. And harness racing on most offshore sites are max $50 bets, which isn't manipulating anything. Doesn't make much sense at all. The day before the Breeders Cup, I put $1K on BetAmerica...Got lucky, made 7500 between the BC and Los Alamitos, and cashed out 6000 the Monday after. It was in my bank account Wednesday... I would have never been able to do that at an offshore book without them banning my horse play long before I could win 7500...

          As for greyhounds, there is probably more bet on the dogs at my local casino (Twin River) then TBs. I don't enjoy it all... Very tough to cap... But most of the older people at the casino grew up betting the dogs when it was LIncoln Park, so its what they dont know.

              You ever heard of rebates bud? If your not getting them and you are playing for serious money you are basically throwing money away.

                With the amount on bet horses, I definitely can't do it at offshore sites. There limits are way too low and 5Dimes cut me off all together.

                I get decent rebates at some of the legal places online.

                  On Tuesdays when Twin River is closed, I always go to Plainville. They got a nice area upstairs.... Plus they are a little known harness track if you like that kind of stuff. Its not for me. But ya... Twin River still has a pretty big room for Simulcating horses & dogs. I spend way too much time there figuring I hate the people that are there. Its a who's who of degenerates.

                    What legal online ADW would you reccemend for getting decent rebates? Best Ive found is offtrackbetting.com, but there it depends on which track you play for what your rebate % will be.

                      Just for discussion what amounts do you bet on horses? Are you shooting for the stars with pick 6's throwing together bomb pick 4 tickets at Saratoga? I'm not trying to change your mind, but 25k max payouts on a race isn't chump change.

                        I like adw if I'm betting big tickets. The rebates are great the first month, but seem to get lower and always change up. It is horseshit that they don't let you know what rebates you'll get. I'm talking about adw sites. They have their uses and I would advise everyone not wanting to take a risk to play there.

                          Gave me name for m g I made deposit at walmart then I called back in reference number. never credited my account. tried to get money back from m g they said that it was already picked up. called wager web and tried to figure what was going on. Marcel said that my account from legends was closed and hung up on me. I tried calling a million more times but they just tell me that my account is closed and hang up.

                            I bet 1000 for the Belmont in 2010 at the Horizon... and they try to only pay me 10K out of the 16K they owed me. Had to go to SBR.

                            Since then.. I havent bet a single horse offshore.. the problems are continuous & notorious.

                              when i inquired months ago, they said something similar to what they told you. hopefully they didn't abandon their plans.


                              Tech issue at the moment. I will keep you posted.

                                zero money in it for books

                                very tiny amounts bet

                                this is wrong. and some ppl bet fortunes into greyhounds.

                                  Kaabee, it is back now up and running. The DGS casino. I would have messaged you but didn't know if it crossed some t&c's here, so I used this thread instead.

                                  Already had a big hit......then a big loss that normally follows. Dam I wish I had better self control.
