1) credit. a local bookie gives you a line of credit. you do not have to post up. most will work with you if you lose more than you can pay.
2) travel. no one wants to drive an hour to the casino to bet and drive back home. they want to login from their home computer and play or call on the phone.

#1 is biggest issue. i remember being in vegas and still calling home to bet.
cheech I agree Icredit will be the main factor keeping street books open .
2) in Nevada you can bet online legally if you are a Nevada resident and set up A account .But last I saw limits were pretty low , so I would assume if It were legal federally online options would be put in play
ya I seen some that have the apps for Live In Play as well.

i dont think it cuts much into the street gambling as people will think initially.

Pinny had a reduced juice promo. that was there "gimmick"
Pinny's line sharpest. no more US bettors. unless youre a whale

If it's legal I can see twitter having a big impact and/ or live betting options .

Sky bet , oh shit , great call cheech. Loved that benefit and I really miss pinny as their juice was always the lowest , wish I could get back in there but last I checked years ago they stopped accepting US clients.

In game live betting is growing big and that could be a big way wise guy books can differentiate from legal books but if in 10 years they are basically offering the same product then I think it will have a decent impact , not fatal but a hit

And of course whether the debilitating medical condition allows you to do the essential functions of the job in any event.
Hope you're doing well with it.

I have a medical prescription in CT. totally different
CT has the exact same law as the other states on what I wrote about. Your case is different but the result is not necessarily different. In your case the issue is whether the ADA requires that a particular employer, depending upon its business, has to reasonably accommodate your disability by letting you smoke outside of work.

10 years ago I could fund my pinnacle account with my credit card that's took 2 mins and that's it but the republicans passed a law that basically killed normal bank funding by using the moral / vice argument , now some are cool with pedophiles, go figure and exactly why I'm an independent as the hypocrisy on both sides is mind boggling .

I used to did it with $100 gift cards that you could load most times but the whole process became tiring. I liked the big bonus's they gave you and I remember one book , sky somethign gave you a free 1/2 pt in all bets

Now that I think about it that republican bill must have been a boom to wise guy sportsbook that came right around the internet explosion . It's just my opinion but I think wise guy sports books are many times bigger then they were even at their height in the 1980s. Give them credit with their technology and jurisdiction savyness

If you're talking about mob-run offshore sight, it's simply how the bettor places his bet and the bookie can also log in and see the bet and for how much. The money itself is actually exchanged in person when it comes time to settle up. (yes, no CC. the difficult part is getting the money to CR where the majority are. bitcoin most popular method now cause there is no cap on how much you can send. for MG or WU you can only send up to $600 at a time)

If you're talking about legit gambling sites, if I'm not mistaken, you initially deposit money into a player account. Maybe others are different.
(yes, you fund the account with a cc or a bank card. as some said some bank cards wont allow you if it shows up as gaming. )

You can start your own online book in minutes. Hundreds of sites that set you up with everything you need. Some will charge you $10 a head. You give your guys a user name and PW. They log in and bet on whatever they want.

From south Louisiana and there are bookies everywhere but I have never fooled with that offshore shit. Just don’t know enough about it.
