    Most people still can’t bet at a regulated book and unless sports betting ever gets federally regulated it would be a long time for certain states to want to go that route.

    nothing beats getting cash immediately but it is not practical for many of us.

    DK is as close to instant cash as you have. their payouts are lightning fast right into my bank account in minutes.

    californian

    Seems like California will never be legal.

    However, if you play in big reputable books like heritage, betonline, etc...

    You get way better odds

    Legal shops are juiced AF

    Offshore they have WAY better bonuses . Other then original deposit they pretty much are garbage in NJ. GT i get 100% cash once in awhile or 100% FP here and there. In NJ next to nothing.In NJ when i won decent amounts i have to pay taxes on a decent win that is a chunk. Offshore i have never paid a cent.

    Which site would you recommend that you trust paying you and has a good new player bonus? Thru the years I've opened accounts at most of the big ones like bovada, heritage, bookmaker to name a few so they arent options for me. I'm out of the loop these days so was thinking there might be a trustworthy book out there I have never played with.

    Gtbets i have always gotten paid and check from time to time on their site they have offers that pop up for higher amounts . Right now i am at 25% cash but i get offers at times for 100% cash a couple times 150% cash. Wagerweb has 30% cash. Justbet sends offers maybe 1-2 times a month for 100% Free Play. Youwager and Betpop i get offers 70% Free Play at times. Betus they will offer me 100% Free Play at times. SBG i have seen 25% Cash but once in awhile i have seen 100% up to $200 i think it was.

    garbage in NY too. if i withdraw from fanduel in about a month they will offer me a $25 match to come back. awful.

    someone start a domestic book with solid reload bonuses on deposits. you will get offshore action that way.

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I went with BetOnline. I'm going to be visiting my wife's family in the Philippines for a month. Even if I'm thousands of miles away I have to bet the tournament.

    Yea it was online it got so bad i mean really bad in the online casinos that i had to restrict myself in all NJ online ones . Betmgm and Caesars destroyed my life and i just got tired of it. At first i would win and as soon as i cashed out everything there changed . Now i just play offshore and i figured it is for the best because the only advantage was fast payouts otherwise there were next to nothing on bonuses and Casino just kept killing me.

    Playing offshore i get good bonuses and i may have to wait 2 days but that is fine i recently cashed out $7000 at Justbet and it helped to get there with the 100% Free play at first plus SBG cashed out $2500 with a 25% cash. If i was using NJ online i would not have had the better start with the bonuses. With my style of betting a decent bonus helps starting out going All In. And i cant lose it all in casinos offshore i have most blocked like at Justbet .

    I'll stick to my top 4 offshore books for 90% of my bets over a casino sportsbook 2 miles from my house. It's more convenient to place bets from my phone and waiting 24 hours tops isn't a big deal.

    Offshore pays out in a quick fashion. No trouble.

    Been with off shore books for 25 years now. Overall I'm very pleased with most books like Mybookie, Bovada, BetDSI, Bookmaker, Heritage, etc.

    Gonna take alot for me switch over now.

    yup i'm joing the off shores so i can spread out my wagers i'm still not sure if live sports books talk to each other that one player is hammering them for like $5000 a week havent heard any one get limited yet havent talked to the bosses yet about the possibility but next year i'll have $100,000's to bet with no way they do not limit me if i strat winning like $5000 - $8000 a week

    it happened to 2 bros i known online spoke to one live on phone accused of mob ties in NYC wound up moving to vegas to be bale to bet that $5000 per game with no restrictions

    Flyer--
    They are among 5 books that I like to use.
    You know that I have used them for years and I am completely satisfied.
    Can't beat the 150%-200% bonuses.

    Not sure why the OP likes no bonuses and bad lines?
