Legal Sportsbetting Sites

[CASPERWAIT$]

In NY, we have 6 legal betting sites we can use for sports wagering. I have been using all 6 since they were launched. Figured I’d review one a day in here.

BETMGM

Ease Of Use:
The interface is pretty basic, which as you will see over time, is actually a good thing. Some of these sites have SO much going on, they make them a pain to navigate through. 8/10

Bonus & Rewards:
Not all that great. Sign up bonus is paltry compared to the other ones, and their rewards points system makes it where you’d get a $25 bonus after roughly wagering $3000 in sports bets. I guess not awful, but once again, others are better. 5/10

Payouts:
Hella fast. Withdrew from them 3 times so far, and the LONGEST I waited to get paid was 5 hours via PayPal. Best of the bunch so far. 9/10

Customer Service:
Was blocked for an overnight because I was dinged for “spoofing” when I was in Florida. Fair enough. I didn’t know that was a thing. They got back to me pretty quickly concerning the issue. 7/10

All in all a decent book. No real complaints. Maybe a better rewards program. That’s about it.

CAESARS SPORTSBOOK:

Ease Of Use:
I feel their layout is the easiest and friendliest to use. Not so loud and maneuvering through different sports to set up parlays is easy. If you have a freeplay, a button is located on the bottom of your bet slip and it’s predominant, unlike a couple of others. 8/10

Bonus & Rewards:
Best initial signup bonus w lowest rollover. Many creative bonuses offered daily. Best promotions of the bunch. 9/10

Payouts:
Here is where the problems start. Longest wait of all the sites. Made two withdraws and both took a week or eight days. I wasn’t withdrawing a shit ton of money, so I didn’t understand the wait. 4/10

Customer Service:
Worst of the lot. No chat available and emails are all responded with an automated reply. Piss poor. 2/10


Casears is a good SPORTSBOOK for bonuses. If you don’t mind waiting to get paid, go for it. If you’re someone that expects to be paid fast, use others.

You still got the first tier bonus though. That’s something 😁

Which other book?

 

[Boner_18]

Got limited/banned from Bet Rivers. Bet 70k across all books since Jan as arb bets between 1-2% profit with mostly the soft line at Bet Rivers. Guess they can track whose hammering their shitty lines...

 

[Boner_18]

Limited at draftkings now too. Need another site to pair with Caesars to get another 2000 Caesars rewards risk free and then ill be done (Diamond status).

Draft Kings has been complete garbage from what I've read.

Can you use Fanduel?

 

[Boner_18]

Yeah I have FD. I thought Bet Rivers and DK had the softest lines thus far (though i stopped looking at FD early in Feb.).

Bet Rivers and MGM Grand are all I use now.

Bet Rivers and MGM Grand are all I use now.

Same here, BetRivers, Fanduel and MGM. BetRivers payouts are always 30 minutes to hit my bank acct.
Fanduel has great promos, essentially free money.

Looking at the recent stats here it seems BetRivers has only a tiny market share but how they measure is misleading, they go by downloads of betting apps and the score is number one but since they don't have a website and there odds are usually garbage I don't use them.

 

[plommer]

Just got this from DK, looks like they have been watching fanduel as this is what I get from FD frequently.

Will the Jays get a hit vs Oakland on Monday YES +100 ($25 max)

 

[Boner_18]

Requested Draft Kings close my account today. They've had me limited for months to single dollars even for mainstream sport side/total (clearly -ev) parlays so fuck em.

Wow!

So I pretty much stopped using Draft Kings until BetMGM went from great for bonuses and offers to nonexistent.

What did they limit you to? You’re that sharp? That’s impressive pal.

 

[Boner_18]

I don't know exactly what the limit is but I tried to place a three team parlay today (Astros series, mich o55 and giants ml) and it was reduced from $45 to $5. Shit like that.

I'm not sharp, I just have a fun time arbing things like ncaa hockey, nascar head to head, golf, etc for the max (was betting 4 figs per side). Bet rivers limited me as well (mostly hockey player props there are REALLY off market) but they still let me bet $50-100 so that's fine.

Mgm and Caesars bonuses suck... DK was prob the best.

Pinnacle now live in Ontario. Migrating my old .com user to the new pinnacle.ca was a headache so they just closed the old acct and let me open a new Ontario based pinny acct.

Up and running. Well actually, just waiting for my documents that verify my ON address to be approved.
