    The fuktards added a "PLAY BLACKJACK" button on the Ontario app on the bottom right if the sportsbook and it obscures information. You think your clicking a bet but nope, you gonna play BLACKJACK.
    Their whole intent is deceptive. The button needs to go!!!

    In draftkings defense, they do have the best bonuses. They are one of three that I have ever gotten a reload bonus at. Granted, I am massively down at draftkings. Literally the only onshore book this is true of.

    DK quit giving me oddsboosts on Same game parlays the other day. I hope its just temporary? I've been killing those at a 20-50% boost. They're limited to $50 or $100 so not for heavy hitters

    FD lines aren't that great. Idk why anyone likes them better then DK or MGM?

    My limit on SGP at DK is $10...to win. And I'm not sure I ever even bet one there.

    Can't bet hardly anything at MGM.

    But I can at Fanduel. That's why I like them, among other reasons. DK and MGM way bigger pussies than Fanduel, and yet Fanduel makes more on more volume.

    100% correct on this. Guy has been in the industry forever but doesn’t have a clue on how to be a real bookmaker.

    I live in a restricted state but I’m visiting Tennessee and decided to see what it’s all about. Used a referral link from a friend that lives here. Signup was smooth, bonuses seem okay but depositing isn’t as easy as I had hoped. I guess my debit card restricts gambling which cuts my options down to cash or ACH. No way I’m doing ACH and the cash options remind me too much using ** at cvs which was always a train wreck, no thanks. Maybe next time. I will say the email customer service was excellent, but I’m used to offshore customer service which is basically useless.

    DK best baseball lines on a daily basis

    MGM Albies rbi +125. DK +135. DK same game parlay format is super easy too. Over Memorial Day weekend DK gave me 10 boosts of 25% for mlb $100 max. Pretty nice for a small-medium player

    Compare the Same Game Parlays between Draftking and Fanduel and you see a huge difference. I saw one that had a +500 difference.

    Do you check against Fanduel? Fanduel almost always way better.

    I might find one 200-1 on Fanduel and 60-1 on DK. Stuff like that. It's nuts. But of course it varies. There could be ones better on DK, but typically Fanduel pays better.

    Which shows you there's no regulation on those things whatsoever.

    Regulation wouldn't covet that. They can offer whatever prices they want. It's up to the bettor whether to take it. Of course it would be nice if they didn't discriminate between customers.

    I don’t know what they changed but their online banking withdrawals have been hitting within minutes (or when your bank updates in the AM etc depends on who you bank with)

    Actually it just hit my bank almost instantly, requested at 12:00 am, hit my bank by 12:03am

    Unless I'm looking in the wrong place, fanduals baseball props are fing terrible. Only over on most, no under, and the prices are much worse than draftkings.

    DraftKings pays instantly probably the fastest in all of the betting world I request a payout and a lot of the time it’s literally in my bank account in under a minute. The cash outs compared to the other books are ridiculously low though they hardly let you cash out to profit. Say I bet a -300 favorite and they are -10000 sometimes a cash out will be just under my original stake where the other books you lose like 20% maybe

    Sometimes, not always.

    More importantly, the SG parlay combination is not simply a multiplication like a regular parlay. When you try various combos, I think you'll see that Fanduel is quite frequently better odds. But there are endless combinations, so it varies a lot.

    Really? I haven't played FD much since 2020. Every time I look the lines are better at DK or MGM for what I want. I got the Mavs 30-1 to win it all on DK and hedged for a little profit. FD was like 20-1 and MGM was 24-1. FD worst of the 3 when I look plus all the deposit bonuses on MGM and profit boosts on DK. MGM just matched $200 deposit 100% twice in a week for me and I'm up there overall. Lost the first one on one bet, but ran the 2nd one up to $600 in a few days then cashed out and went back to DK

    I've also killed the Same Game Parlays on DK and its really easy to use. They've been giving me daily boosts since April, but I didn't get any this week until today. 20% boost on 3 legs up to $100. I hit +275 Monday with Toronto so that would've been +330 with the boost

    DK was giving me 50% boosts on the SGPs for weeks up to $50. I hit one for $368 in the 3rd inning and several for $250 or more. Does FD do that? I doubt it

    My comment was in response to same-game parlays. Now you're talking about futures.

    But either way, it depends on varies a lot. If you check every bet you're gonna make against both, you're gonna split your bets a lot and see a lot of difference in some situations. I'm just talking about stacked higher + odds SGP's, from what I've seen it's better at Fanduel more often than not. But I imagine it depends on the type of combo.
