I'M THROWING DOWN THE GAUNTLET SCALAJABRONEE STYLE: STU VS. SABANESQUE. LOSER LEAVES COVERS FOREVER

Go sick there, Tiger!!!! I know I've been growing in your small pea-sized brain like a rapidly spreading cancerous tumor ever since you read my first post.....

Anyways, you might of had a point with your "attempt" to "get" me (much like the boy pulling the girl's hair on the playground - ahhhh, so sweet! I'm blushing!!!)

But.....

You forgot a couple of little but important tidbits. Such as:

It wasn't a contest, it was one game - which came down to the wire.....

I ACCEPTED the terms of the wager, and followed through with my "payment" when I lost.....

I didn't whine or cry or "call foul" halfway through the game.....

AND

I didn't have to BEND THE KNEE to beg for my Covers life when it was all over.....

Now, let's see, which race-baiting, "extreme male hugging" fan, welcher does that sound like to you???

 

Coldsnap = Michael Avenatti

Warmspell > Coldsnap

Donkey Kong is one of the toughest cabinet games that exists from that era (without a lot variety in levels). Great game but it gets old FAST. Still one of the purest video games there is in terms of challenge though. 

Who has the over under on the number of IRS Tax Returns that list the following as 'occupation' on April 15, 2019 (US Tax Day);

In the ten's of thousands for sure, Scal. Atleast.

I won't be one them! Hell no. Recently, I can't even watch the game I'm betting on. I have to DVR it, see the final and then see where I went right or wrong watching it later. Too much stress.

Vanzack says the sites will be fine in the short-run but this will be bad for them in the long-run.

I think 5D is big enough to stay afloat until 2018 but in the semi-long-term, who knows. I've been wanting this since I was a kid and now that it's getting closer i'm apprehensive.

you will be fine.... offshore, and others really want be that affected....they offer better lines and more importantly taxes....  states will be able to see more and have more control....people don't like reporting free money...

Didn’t like the answer from Stump and Scoo seems to brush it all off which I like. Vanzack is more cryptic.

Arent a new wave of American based online sportsbooks expected to eventually come to replace the offshores? I would guess each and every major vegas sportsbook would most likely develop their own online betting app which would be easily accessible by anyone in the states, no?

The current offshores/euro books will continue to service all non-US bettors as is.

That's the other thing. I don't play at 5D so much. I know you do. Do really think there's gonna be any state sanctioned casino or OTB that is gonna offer the amount of lines that 5D does? H3ll, they often have things on the board that even Vegas casinos don't offer.

Not necessarily. It's a state thing, not federal. So how do you prove Joe Bloe in Indiana isn't placing a bet on a site based in New Jersey. Do you only get to play in Casinos in whatever state you pay taxes in?

And what about the elephant in the room we've all been talking about, the juice? I don't want to pay -125 base. What about us that wager on ML predominant sports? Baseball. Tennis. A -160 is now -175? Maybe -180? Adam Silver wants his cut. All leagues are gonna have their hands out.

Will you guys knock it the f*ck off. If you haven't noticed, we've shifted back to talking about regular stuff. The ruling on sports wagering for example. You don't see Scal and I bickering. This site is 100% dudes and look how much time we all spend squawking like a f*cking hen house.

No way. 5 dimes lines beat everything I have ever seen.

Packers my fear is they make you register like you are in a poker tournament and then if you win you sign a tax form (for anything over $1,199 in winnings. That’s the threshold in the US).

horse racing and sports betting are 2 different animals.... one thing that keeps on popping up is with sports, in order to wager ID will be required so they can track and monitor.... they go mobile , its like a gps ..... this part is due to a "cut" that the leagues will get.... to make sure to keep its integrity...  add in states my have higher standard juice to offset the "cut", makes be believe even more offshore will be fine... as one who likes wagering sports....I like to get the best possible line and I do believe the offshore will offer in order to compete... taxes, imagine hitting a parlay and then getting paid half....  I rally don't

Well Scoo if I go to Monmouth race track to place a bet on Memorial Day weekend I want to walk up to the window and deal with cash, just like the horses.

if you have ever been to Vegas( recently ) and downloaded the MGM mobile app I imagine each state will come up with something similar to that that uses your GPS or whatever to determine if you are in fact in that state that its legal to wager.   I swear man, I saw so many dullards at at least 3-4 casinos with a sheet of paper waiting to place a bet when you have that option right in your friggin hand.  And they would wait for hours!

I'm old-fashioned. I like placing a bet with a person. I do enough betting from a device in my hand.
