Paging scal.  Paging scal.

We have a 1-1 day thus far as you predicted.  Please return at once to the forum and write a 1,000 word essay explaining how you were correct.

N carolina - Louisville 70 - 60

Was this played at a so called neutral venue? Neither a home or road game for either school? Is that common in college bball? (excuse the stupid q's from a foreigner).

In order to legally establish residency outside the US. you have  reside a certain period of time outside the US. As a US citizen you actually have to renounce your US citizenship to become a legal resident of another country. Owning a house or renting a house outside the US does not establish residency in that country.
If you go to pinnacle and try to set up an account you are asked Are you a US resident, if you answer yes you are denied. If you answer yes but I have a home in the Bahamas that I will bet from I bet they still deny you.

Neutral but in the state of N. Carolina so huge Carolina crowd.  A lot of the conference tournaments are played at neutral sites.

Well regardless I disagree on the notion CG would excel at live betting. Cg is good at "capping." You don't cap live betting. Don't think that avenue would help him much, but there are plenty of other reasons why online would surely help.

Should I classify it as a road pick or a "neutral" pick when updating the sheet you think?

It's a conference tournament game so they are played on a neutral court. That said, the game was played in Carolina's home state so they had far more fans at the game. But for all the college bball games from here on out, they will be played on a neutral court. (except for NIT games)

All of the games since monday have been neutral so if you are updating, you might need to go back a bit.

Notre Dame Fighting Irish -4.5 (-110) $550/$500. This team is very solid and Miami struggled with Va Tech. Irish roll tonight

Thx for the info, could you help me out with a quick look if there are earlier games than that that have been neutral also. I just asumed that the team listed on the 2nd row in the box score was the @home team, as is customary in your sports.

I missed a decent amount earlier in the last week but on tuesday I believe his first game was BC. All college games including that BC game have been neutral.

Too late, but Vanzack should have put odds up, on whether College Gambler would have shown discipline and called it a day after his early split, and just chilled in Vegas, since he has some more MILFs to slay.

It is pity that you can not use Asian bookies in U.S.A. However I think there is a simple solution for you. You can use one of bet brokers, so you will have access to the best Asian odds without moving from your country.

I've looked into them but some were restricted on pinnacle/matchbook. What's the best one you've used?

Look - Bluefin - I am trying to be patient with you.

You are going to have to trust me.  I know of which I speak.

The above quote from you is so full of misinformation I don't know where to start.

1.  Pinnacle does not ask you if you are a resident as immigration terms a resident.  They gladly accept US citizens.  They ask for proof of residency in an accepted country in the form of a utility bill or a lease.

2.  US citizens do not have to renounce their citizenship to become a resident of another country.  Jeesh.  You can live in another country your whole life and maintain your US citizenship.  You can even have dual citizenship!  But for now, lets stick to residency.

3.  If you have a home in the Bahamas and provide a US passport to Pinnacle, they accept you.  If you bet from a US IP address they will ban you.  Are you just talking out of your a*s here?

Come on.  Lets be serious here.

ATF (after the fact), after hitting his first bet on Michigan, College Gambler could have wagered 1K on UNC in the 2nd half for a decent middle opportunity, and at worst, have a winning $900 day, and possibly a $3000 score.

But it appears that a $900 winning day is unacceptable to College Gambler at this juncture, and would seem more like a break even day to him.

1 for the under!!!

While I know this doesn't establish a pattern - it is a 500 dollar bet before a 1500 dollar bet.

MAJOR LINE MOVE:

1500   -180
500     +160

Asian bet brokers don't accept Americans.  That I know of.  Please tell me I am wrong.
