i am looking at odds on pinnacle sports. Can anyone explain to me how that moneyline formula works?

[edman5555]

nevermind. i figured it out.

Yea if they ever shut down us betting, I'd just change my address to a canadian one and funnel everything through a friend that lives in canada. Only hangup would be that all the action would be coming from a u.s. ip. This is assuming that i'd be able to change my address on 5dimes without a problem

Considering the fact that we are the third most populous nation on the face of the earth, and also the richest, it seems that they would do anything necessary to make sure to keep taking action from Americans.

I'm trying not to worry right now. If 5d, BM or Bodog ever shut down to US bettors, though, I will be concerned.

Since it seems to be the unofficial movie of IWS, I watched Limitless last night.

I thought it was pretty good. I would've been happy for it to have been less thriller and more him running around taking down the stock market and playing blackjack, though.

aldo-florian and penn-condit lines have come out

[SPX]

Thanks for the heads up. 4u on Aldo at -270. I'm surprised his line is that low. Even more surprised that it actually IMPROVED after opening.

I'm going to hope that money comes in on Condit and BJ becomes the dog. Not sure if that will happen, but we'll see.

The thing is, it's scary to think about what an online betting site would do if they found out you violated their Terms of Service. We don't exactly have a lot of viable legal options if they decide it gives them the right to lock down our accounts and steal our money.

Thegreek closing shop should make you at least a little concerned,they are/were a bigger of a sportsbook than 5dimes or bodog .

Just a couple updates.

-still working on moving the forum to a different server. Im waiting for this guy that helps me out from time to time, to help me back up the databases and what not, so we dont lose everything.

-once I do that ill add a chat box within the forum, for the nights we have events.

I'll be at zewkey, come get me when you are done .

You heard very little about them, though. Or at least I did.

[Vandelay]

Yea ive never really heard of the greek. Meaning they must not market themselves much in the U.S. so them closing up shop to us customers shouldnt be surprising. If Bodog closes down, i'm probably withdrawing all my money.

Interesting shit here.

You only bet MMA remember, which is one of the smallest bet sports .

Thegreek was huge and had huge limits , anyone that takes 25k on sides is big
