Next year's CFB season will be my first betting with serious cash. I'm gonna start with a fairly hefty roll and bet 10-20 CFB games per week at around $2000 per bet. My problem is where to get the bets down. I figure these are my options.
1. I bet with a Local. This would be perfect. Problem is, I live in the sticks and the only "Book" I know takes $300 max wagers. i would love to get in with a solid local who pays promptly. Probably not gonna happen.
2. I bet on line. This would also be a great choice. I've been betting on line for a few years. My problem here is, I don't feel good about sending large sums of money to a book who may or may not pay me. Especially with the limited options for funding.
3. I fly to Vegas every weekend. This sounds like the most probable course of action. Probably sounds like a really cool thing to alot of people. It's not to me. First, I hate flying. Second I have a little Boy who turns 2 in March. My wife is cool with me going out there every week, but I really don't want to stick her with the Boy every weekend while I'm on vacation. I've considered sending a friend out, but I'm having trouble finding someone I know and trust with this kind of money.
So the question is: Can I safely get large sums of money deposited off shore and know that I will get paid? It gives me heartburn just thinking about it. I would love to just bet on-line, but it scares the shit out of me, especially with all the threads on this site and others about people having to "pull teeth" to get paid.
Anyone?
