Why use offshore sports books?
Although I started using online sports books
almost sixteen years ago, I still maintained contact with a couple
of local books for the express purpose of getting better lines
with regard to the local or favorite teams of choice in my neck of
the woods, the reasoning of course was so that if I saw "Value"
in going against the the local or favorite teams of choice then what
better place to get the best line when going against them then in
their home area?
I have always held the believe that if you want
the best deal available then it would be quite foolhardy to purchase
the first car that you see at the first dealership that you visit,
that very same line of logical thinking should be applied to "Sports
investment" and of course is the very reason why I
personally use four different "outs"
as a means of gaining as much of an edge as possible with regard to
finding the best line on games that I am wagering on, sometimes a
half of a point here or a half of a point there can make all
the difference in a winning week versus a break even or losing week.
It never ceases to amaze me for example how
some people can be misers with regard to insisting that any light
left on in a room with no one in it be considered as a capital
crime, these same individuals always seem to be the ones not willing
to take the wife and kids to a movie or out to a restaurant for
lunch or dinner because they may have to fork over a few dollars on
something they consider unwarranted and wasteful.
However, these same individuals find nothing
wrong with shacking up in a tavern all Saturday or Sunday afternoon
with the boys watching the games and betting with the local bookies,
don't get me wrong as I like to stop for a beer or two myself now
and then, but why do I make this comparison you ask?
Simple my friend, if someone as I described
above was truly cost conscious and on a quest of sorts for savings
and "Value", why then would
anyone in their right mind make sports wagers strictly with local
bookies? Aren't these local guys the ones who make you wait until
the morning of the game to get their lines? Aren't these the same
guys that you have to track down and fight busy signals to reach on
the ole telly phone?
What real "Value"
can be had from a local book that basically shoves his/her line in
your face and figuratively speaking says "take
it or leave it pal"?
Hometown gamblers using strictly local bookies
are missing out on more than just the convenience of being able to
place a wager on an upcoming NFL or College football game days in
advance, these hometown gamblers using strictly local books are also
missing out on their fair share of "Moola"----"Black
gold"----"Texas Tea"....No
I am not going to start singing about Jed Clampett here but instead
about the sign up bonus's offered by online sportsbooks.
Think about it a second, let's say that you
have a $5000 starting bankroll that is dedicated to nothing but
sports investing, you could deposit the whole $5000 with one
sportsbook and get as much as a 20% sign up bonus for doing so,
which means that you would now have a starting bankroll of
$6000...that's your $5000 plus the $1000 sign up bonus, right?
WRONG!!
Most sportsbooks in fact have limits on the total sign up bonus for
an individual that ranges anywhere from $200 to $500,
if that is the case then why not divide up your initial $5000
starting bankroll four ways between four different sportsbooks and
possibly get a 20% sign up bonus from each sportsbook?
$5000 divided four ways would mean that if you
were to deposit $1250 at each sportsbook and got a 20% signup
bonus with each one, your starting bankroll with each of your four
sportsbooks would then be $1250 plus a $250 sign up bonus for a
total of $1500.
Thus $1500 X 4 means that you now have a $6000
starting bankroll, ( that's your $5000 plus the $1000 in total sign
up bonus's ), and your money is now evenly spread out over four
different sportsbooks which now allows you to "Line
shop".
As you now see, by depositing your entire
bankroll with one sportsbook you could actually cost yourself some
dinero in lost sign up bonus money, an added benefit of
spreading your starting bankroll over three or four different
sportsbooks is derived from the fact that sportbooks require you to
"Roll over" the amount
in your account so many times prior to being able to withdrawl
funds.
For example, if the sportsbook that you are
using has a five (5) time rollover rule in effect and your initial
deposit was $1000.00, you would have received $200 with your initial
deposit for a total of $1200 if the sign up bonus was 20%.
You would now need to wager a total of $6000 or
( $1000 + $200 ) X 5 in total bets placed before you are entitled to
keep the initial sign up bonus and make a withdrawl of your funds, I
would however advise you to be careful and to do your homework
before depositing any funds anywhere as there are probably just as
many "Fly by night"
operations out there as there are legitimate and reputable ones.
Ask questions of others that you know who may
have used the different sportsbooks and hear what they have to say,
troll thru the various forums and posting boards and post messages
that ask the opinions and experiences of others.
The main over riding factor to the equation is
that you want to have the ability to "Line
shop" for the best possible odds with as many
reputable sources as possible, I personally like Canbet, Bowmans and
Bet365 the best and also like to use Betmill and Sportsinteraction
as well.
