Which was met with disastrous results also. Last summer things changed. I took $500 and turned it into just over $5000  following Rizz's -145 home team chase that has struggled this year and also by adding my own plays with it from MLB and into NCAA football and hoops. I also used a lab by method, but not as aggressive. It took approximately 6 months worth of work to grow the bankroll that much.  I also caught a few lucky breaks along the way. Now, the undoing. Greed. I had hit a spell of about 2 weeks where I was spinning my wheels. I saw a 3 team money line parlay with extreme heavy favorites in NCAA hoops. I put the whole bankroll on the line risking approximately $5000 to win $1300. Not only did it lose, 2 out of 3 of my teams of over -1000 lost.  I was so disgusted at myself for throwing away 6 months of extreme patience and solid money management. Now time has passed and another lesson was learned and now I am back for more. My plan that I want to track here is not a systems for picks, but a system of money management. I have a goal of averaging $20 of profit a day. My beginning bank is $1150. I will use a 2 game Martingale Chase and Recovery. My picks will be some of my own and probably some of the systems that are running in this forum. I will not focus on volume, only on AVERAGING $20 a day in profit. My plays will be on what I feel gives me the best chance to win 1 of 2. When a chase loses, the losses plus what I was trying to win will be rolled forward into future series in an attempt to achieve the $20 a day average.

They give you a debit card and when you want a payout, they simply load the money on the card and then you pick up the money at an ATM machine. I have been using them for a few years now and they send me tickets to football games or what ever I want. Also, as part of a referral program I can have them send you a free play with no deposit required so you can check it out. Send me your email and I can set it up.

Take it from a veteran who got  caught up in fbi investigation in 70's. Talkin naive, young high roller same good "good ole boys" that were taking action up  to 3/4 dimes a game from me ended up also being same guys dealing cocaine etc. etc.   Beating  someone making 100K+ in 70's while in his 20's wasn't hard.  All it did was destroy business pursuits, marriage, friendships an a life it took 15 years to get straightend out.  They really love you for sure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Gambling credit is death my friends. Never used line of credit in casino's, but couldn't leave sports bedtting with credit alone. Talking hundreds of thousands when it was real money, but so it goes the lessons of life.  Stopped the gamblin, drinkin for 15 years, got it all straight in my head an finally now regular winner.

LISTEN WELL to advice in this article. Better off with online books, taking chances of not getting paid that having "officials" of the law or some guy calling your house making sure you can pay when you're 8-10K stuck, then having next level "freeze" your account.  Simple maneuver, when one guy can't pay you, next level person steps in says "tell you what if you lose we'll just knock it off what he owes you, but go ahead an pay you when you win".  DUUUUUH all sounded good when a kid an thought could beat it for sure when had em down 45K in couple of weeks. Course blew it back an another 10-15K, then feds show up since they had big guys phone hot who was tied in with Marcello's bunch in new orelans. When they play your recording when you were up 45K an question is what going to do about paying him. Answer being could put him box an put it 6 ft under. YOU WLL BEGIN TO PAY ATTENTION.  All the questions, the grand jury, the publicity etc. not worth it gentleman.  Take your shots with online books an enjoy it whether you are addicted, a real handicapper or real player.

 

When you post or hand it too the guy behind the window you will pay more attention an do better job.  Luckily, now kickin back on mailbox money, enjoying life, sports betting only during foots an sweet sixteen on bball.

Still comped nicely in casinos for solid craps action on numbers across the top, hedged with the don't.  Make few dollars here an there during foots. REMEMBER gentlemen, the gamble always has hustle an hustlers around it everywhere on the edges, in the middle lookin for the soft touch. 

HEED ADVICE USE ONLINE BOOKS

You can try and talk them out of Sportsbook.com, but I have enjoyed the site thoroughly and hope that other people can enjoy it, just as I have.

This is what the forum is for.... you can hear good oppinions and bad oppinions on any site.

Good post

Some of the complaints lodged against these books were from outright scammers, syndicates.

The sites sometimes bend the rules for advertising books but not for the ones who buy ads. Wagerweb and sportbook.com have bad reps, from these watchdog sites, because they wont play ball

It is also common to have shills from the books posting favorable stories.

It would be imposable for SB to stay in business and have so many clients if they did not pay, same thing with wagerweb, or Easysports.

Dont believe everything you read here, find out for yourself, make small deposits and request payouts and see

By the looks of all the complaints Sportsbook.com is just more strict then the regular sites.

I also don't completely trust the Sportsbook Review sites (although I do read them).

They get paid to give sites good ratings. Everything is about making money.

And I am sure some of the complaints against the A+ Rating sites don't ever see the light of day.

 When it comes to dining there are several outstanding options for you,,first and foremost is Vic and Anthonys, the steaks are great but my personal fav is the colorado lamb chops, served with a chopped steakhouse salad and a glass of house red, its about a close to heaven as you can get here on earth--pass on the desert tho, its delish for sure but the chocolate box right across the hallway offers a fine assortment of goodies that are just perfect for a little something for the sweet tooth. Other options include Lillie's which offer up world class asian cuisine and is very reasonably priced, the recently opened Chart House has great fresh seafood (try and get there before 4 and save yourself some coin by getting in on the lunch menu, much cheaper and still very nice sized portions) - The Grotto is the italian rest. on site and is quite tasty as well and features an excellent wine list. For breakfast may I suggest you step next door and eat at Magnolia's at the 4 Queens,, you will find better lighting for the morning paper read, bigger portions and better food (and a few dollars cheaper as well) than carson cafe has at the Nugget. Very few pools in the downtown area and The Nugget's is the cream of the crop without question.

 As you can tell I'm a huge fan of The Golden Nugget , I strongly suggest you make The Nugget your lodging choice. Please feel free to contact me if you seek anymore detailed info about the Nugget or anywhere else in the downtown area,,oh yeah Gordie Brown puts on a hell of a show in the ballroom and The country music superstars show is a lot of fun as well if you are into that sort of thing--Enjoy your time and stay ,,you will be glad you did.

Not to worry, I doubt Dimes will offer the lines for it next year.

Client of 5Dimes since they opened thier doors.  Never had a problem with them, besides one bounced check which they took care of the same week. 

But again, I never chase bonus' and such or wager of fixed outcome events.  I will take Pinny and 5dimes over a local any day. Also I had to send in paperwork again last year. Yep....took about 2 minutes of my time.
