Online sports gambling

Anybody partake in that and have recommendations on which are the best sites, in terms of most reliable and best sign-in bonuses?

Our state is (finally) taking the plunge starting Dec. 1, and I'm sure I will be dipping my toe - or entire foot - in that pond.

We have about 10-12 companies that will be operating in the state. The ones I'm looking at are Caesars, BetMGM and Circa. Also could go DraftKings, FanDuel or others, based on recommendations.

TIA.

I've stuck with FanDuel and DraftKings. Usually just check between the two to see who has better boosts on a given day. Had Caesar's for a bit but shuttered it several years ago.

I'm a DraftKings/FanDuel guy too. Did BetMGM years ago, think it was a promo from The Athletic, but they booted me after a year for questioning them about a tech issue or something, I forget now. If you are a Fanatics shopper it may be worth your time to check their site too, I never signed up but their email offers offering shopping perks for bettors seem interesting.

I guess my biggest concern is if I win, will I have to fight and pull teeth to get paid? I'm sure they all offer decent sign-on/signup bonuses, so that isn't a major concern.

I've had great luck with DraftKings fantasy sports and their Pick 6 games, withdrawing money without problems. Thinking I'll probably go with them - looks like my account will transfer over to their Sportsbook seamlessly.

You can withdraw your funds at any time with FD/DK. Have had no issues with either, even when I hit a ridiculous +5300ish TD bet last year and turned $10 into $530ish. Not sure what stakes you're considering betting. My usual unit is $10. I just like the fun of it. Any more makes it seem stressful.

I'm the same, Cosmo. Maybe 2 or 3 $20 bets for a weekend. I'll go up to $50 if I feel insanely good about a bet (like I'd hit Chiefs -3 hard this week, if the online betting was running). Nothing life-changing if I win them all or lose them all, just something to add another layer of interest.

Are there perks more than just buying stuff with Fan Cash?

Honestly don't know as I never went beyond casually reading the emails wanting my membership.

It’s not the goldmine of 2019-20 anymore.

Books aren’t spending what they did for “player acquisition”. I leveraged 19 books in one state from 2019-22, along with the Doosan Bears run of overs, to turn $300 into $43,000 over 3.5 years.

I drove through Colorado in early 2022 to Vegas and made $4600 in profit off the bonuses of all these books that are shut down. Maxim, betMaverick, SI and a bunch of others.

There can still be a little bit to make. I’ll write more later this week and offer a game plan. I’m assuming this is Missouri.

 

[BurnsWhenIPee]

Yes, Missouri. And thank you.
