If we keep playing like this, we won't even scrape together a 7th place finish. Forget about the Olympics. And honestly, I really hope that actually happens. Wouldn't want us embarrassing ourselves like we have the last few years. ☕
Bate Borisov vs. Shakhtar Donetsk - Home Win (1.70) @ DraftKings (0-7)
The odds are a joke considering Bate Borisov is at home. If they were playing away against Shakhtar, these odds might actually look reasonable, but even then, they'd be too high. I see massive value in a double chance here. Bate isn't losing. Their defense is tight and organized, and they’re a fortress at home—even big clubs better than an average Shakhtar squad haven't been able to break them down there.
10/10
Bate Borisov vs. Shakhtar Donetsk - Home Win (3.80) @ DraftKings
There are plenty more out there, but I've mostly stuck to this list.
Btw, DraftKings, DraftKings, FanDuel, and 10bet have solid, fast payouts to debit or credit cards... usually takes a day or two. I haven't used betfair personally, but I've spent ages lurking on forums and reading reviews. Most people say they're easily in the top 3.

Not sure how much you're betting, but from what I've seen and read on other forums, they're actually better than bet365 when it comes to limits.
Obviously, it's all relative. 99.9% of books will limit you once you start winning big. But you can usually fly under the radar for up to a year if you keep your stakes reasonable...
The best part is being able to parlay an NBA game with every single player prop on the board. ☕
p.s.
Regarding bet365 payouts—it takes me about 3 days to see the cash hit my debit card. There's no cap on how many times you can withdraw. (Had about 3 withdrawals last month). As for the live markets, they're unbeatable. They have everything from random Kyrgyz and Nepalese leagues in their live offerings. Marathonbet has decent depth too, but they just don't have the same massive selection...
silenthawk242 said:So, looks like none of these offshore sites are actually worth anything. Can you combine player basket counts with other props like we do here? Also, what's the deal with Pinnacle regarding payouts? How long does it actually take for them to hit your bank account?
Duh. Obviously. I knew at least five or six of them. Can only think of four right now. And those are:
The selection here is way more detailed than what you'd find at any local US sportsbook. You can mix players with players, or just pair up players with specific games. Simple as that. The only thing you can't do is parlay players from the same game. Look, if there are three different games going on, you can just toss three players into one parlay—one from each game. Simple as that.
You can run combos here too. It’s basically just like Marathonbet, except you're limited to one player per game. Obviously, you can still mix and match them with players from other matchups.
First leg of the semifinals. No way either side—especially Barcelona—just rolls over right from the whistle. My main worry is Bayern not playing an open game. All things considered, I’m looking at a 0-0 in the first half. There's plenty of reasons for it, like Barca's ball possession and the home crowd pressure, etc., etc.
Bayern - Barcelona - 2
7/10
Mostly because I think my first pick hits; I expect a gritty match from the jump. I'm betting Barca holds the draw until at least halfway through the second half. After that, their counterattacks come into play, because I doubt Bayern will be happy sitting with a draw, and they'll have to open up even more.
Next goal - none (2.20) - bet placed in the 70th minute.
Watching this live since kickoff. Aside from that penalty in the 14th minute, Zenit has barely had two decent chances the whole game. Samara has been controlling possession and dictating play for the last 20 minutes or so. Zenit’s only had one real half-chance in the second half.
They’ve even got rebounds and assists available during the regular season. 🙏
First time hearing about this one. Honestly, the options blew me away when I saw them.. 😲 They even have combos for total points and assists combined. 🙏 🙏
From what I can tell, you can actually parlay two different types from the same game—at least based on what I poked around at without signing up.
Is that combo thing legit though? Anyone actually placed a bet there yet? How's the vibe generally—payouts, wait times, all that?
Anyone got info on betting player points in the NBA?
Basically, I've been hunting for an online sportsbook besides bet365, bwin, FanDuel, or DraftKings that actually offers this stuff.
I've looked everywhere. Scoured all the big names and even dug through some smaller sites, but nothing. If I missed something obvious and there's another bookie out there besides those four, let me know.
Alright, running late here, but I spotted an interesting live play on Supersport.
Started less than a minute ago (17:15)
Zenit - Mordovia
handicap 0:2 - 2 6/10 (1.90)
total goals 3.5 - under 9/10 (1.45)
1st half total - under 2 goals - 4/10 (1.50)
just for fun:
Zenit - Mordovia - X (5.25) - 1/10
Anyway. Zenit hasn't cleared over 1 goal in their last 5. Only once in the last 10. Mordovia is playing defensive and they don't have any major absences against an inefficient home team. Smells like a 0:0 or 1:0.
Odds on Portland look too high. Was at 2.20 before kickoff. Head-to-head doesn't really favor LA either. Too much hype around LA lately just because they signed some big star. But Portland's got a motivated striker out there—they can definitely grab a point or two from this.
The odds on Udinese are way too high, IMO. They were sitting at 2.20 before kickoff. Head-to-head history isn't exactly leaning heavily toward Milan either. Everyone’s hyping up Milan way too much just because some superstar showed up. But Udinese, with a motivated Di Natale leading the charge, can definitely snatch a point or two out of Milan.
Noah over 10.5 rebounds. Thinking Chicago dominates Philly's lineup today when it comes to rebounding.
Philly + 8.5
Even with a potential edge on the glass, I'm expecting a tight game, or at least one where Philly doesn't get blown out by double digits... ☕🙂 It's playoffs, though. Game one. Defenses are gonna be locked in. ☕
No clue why they set Charlotte at 95.5, though. Look, I get that Sacramento’s defense is non-existent, but this is a joke. They could’ve easily gone up to 120.5. There’s zero chance they hit 95.5, even if they played three overtimes.
Taking Griffin under 19.5 (DraftKings) and parlaying it with Charlotte under 95.5.
Look at these bettors acting like geniuses again with Griffin's margin. 20.5 🤣 Been betting the under on him the last three times, and it hit every single time. So I'm not changing my strategy now. Saying this for the tenth time already: I'm mostly playing this for the free throws. Last game against the Nuggets he went 2/6... before that it was 3/5, and the game before that was maybe around 3/8...
