Anyone here actually dealt with the Russ guys over at DraftKings? I'm trying to figure out if they're legit or just another headache waiting to happen. 😕

Nah, I haven't actually placed any action with them yet...

@ Kenneth Brooks2

FanDuel is a joke. They’ll let you drop 500 Euros without blinking, but the second they think you actually know what you're doing, they suddenly find ways to slow down your clicks before you can even place a bet.
I'm talking a 6-second delay right at the start. When you're betting live, that's an eternity. It's ridiculous.

Peter Williams37 said:I guess DraftKings doesn't really mess with limits, and FanDuel is fine too, though since it's an exchange, they take a little cut from your winnings. Maybe 12bet and 188bet are similar to DraftKings being Asian-based, so you probably won't run into any issues with limits there either.
Hey!

Hey! How's it going?

The only one I haven't given a shot yet is 12bet, but I guess their handball and volleyball options seem pretty thin. Also, 188bet and DraftKings have such tiny limits on those sports—like, maybe 48 Euro on volleyball at DraftKings, though I suppose you can just place multiple bets at that limit, even if the odds usually drop. It’s nothing like soccer, where you can really go for it without worrying about getting limited too quickly.

Maybe FanDuel, that German bookie, has limits around 500 Euro, I guess. They only really start dragging their feet on withdrawals if they decide you're looking a bit suspicious.
I guess there might be a 6-second delay at the start, which feels pretty significant if you're doing live betting.

I guess it doesn't have the best reputation on the forums, but how long have you actually been using FanDuel? If you've been playing there for a year without any issues, I might just move my money over there.

Plus, 188bet and DraftKings have miserable limits on those sports—like, you'll hit a 48 Euro ceiling on volleyball at DraftKings. Sure, you can place multiple bets up to that limit, but the odds usually take a hit after a while. It’s nothing like soccer, where you can go all out without a single worry about getting capped.

Well, if that's the case, you already know the answer. You didn't even need to ask. ☕

Check your PMs.

Maybe you didn't quite catch what I was asking. I was actually wondering about the bookmakers that aren't on my list.

So, I just placed my very first bet and actually walked away a winner! $157 Honestly, I’m feeling pretty pumped and am really hoping this streak of making money continues, even though I didn't even know who I was betting on—I just picked names out of thin air and went for it...

I used BetMGM, so does anyone know how long it usually takes for them to transfer the winnings over to my card? 🤷

Kenneth Brooks2 said:That’s exactly what you’re thinking! Honestly, I just took a photo of my ID with my phone—it was super low resolution, by the way—and they accepted it without any issues at all. I actually ran into the same thing once at a sportsbook... can't remember which one now, my brain is mush lol, but it definitely isn't an isolated incident. They paid me out just fine after I sent over the digital shots of my docs. I gotta say though, I’ve never even been asked for paperwork by BetMGM, and that's where I've pulled my biggest wins!

Thanks 👍

For those of you using PayPal—check your inbox. You’ve likely received some offers for bonuses on sportsbooks, poker, or similar—there are actually some decent deals in there.

Does anyone happen to know if DraftKings shows a limit on individual bets (like a max bet)?

Hey everyone... so I've got a quick question for you all... if anyone here is running their betting through FanDuel, could you let me know if there's actually an option to set your own odds? Like, specifically just for one team or a single player? For instance, say Federer and Djokovic are facing off, and I want to set the odds specifically on Djokovic—with a limited stake, obviously!!! Let me know if you can help out.

All I see is 'max stake,' but honestly, I have no clue how they actually calculate it.

I’m not sure why—I woke up to an inbox full of bonus offers from half a dozen sportsbooks this morning, ranging from $70 in free bets to 200% match bonuses on first deposits.

Could you shoot those over via PM or email if it's not too much trouble? I need to actually look through them.

I'm thinking about setting up an account with the American lottery, so I was wondering how their deposit and withdrawal process works? Can you just walk into any local branch to make a payment, and what's the minimum payout amount?

You can pay by card, via your checking account (no limits), or even with vouchers. As for payouts, there's no limit on transferring funds straight back to your checking account...

Thanks, I was just curious, I suppose. It doesn't really matter to me how they figure it out.
