    Ucla's best remaining offensive and defensive linemen look like they won't play against cal, yet ucla is a 5.5 favorite

    What is the best site to use these days for gamesmanship?

    I use Bovada, but mainly because of poker. The lines are up late, and aren't super competitive. They are easy to use.

    I have used sportsbook.ag and hate it. 5dimes is very good.

    Does Bovada payout easily? I use to use sportsbook.ag and you would piratically have to send your passport and 40 other documents just to get a payout.

    I believe both bovada and 5dimes will make you send a copy of both sides of the credit card you used to make a deposit, proof of address and both sides of your dl.

    Bovada typically pays out within 5 days, 5dimes is very fast as well. Both obviously fedex checks from canada.

    Sportsbook.ag took months to pay out. It was awful.

    5 dimes absolutely does not require a copy of your credit card. I get paid out through Amazon gift cards through 5 dimes and it takes 24 hours. But I'm not betting much. It's more for fun. I think they do western union too

    I guess it's been a while. I stand corrected.

    poor bastard is probably going to lose it.

    He needed to be on a plane this morning to vegas with a deed to his home to hedge this thing. Or negotiate with 5dimes for a reduced payout.

    problem is the moneyline on the panthers is -240.

    right, so he would have to potentially have to put up $140k to win ~$60 and hedge. Not sure where one comes up with that kind of cash overnight in Vegas. He still needs to be out there with car titles, wedding rings, grandpas war medals, the gold coins he bought as an investment and every other bit of collateral he can scrape up to try and make something.

    Poor guy is dying inside asking why he threw in the garbage monday night NFL game.

    yeah I don't know what i'd do in that situation. a few years back I did have Oregon State to win the pac-12 at something like 15-1 for $20. didn't hedge and they lost to Oregon. but that's a crapload more money.

    I think I deposited through netteller, or one of those online things like PayPal

    yeah I think I used netteller too. I remember it wasn't overly difficult.

    I'd explain the situation to my bookie. Gotta figure he keeps a shipload of cash around. If an overnight trip to Vegas needed to be done, then I'd do it.

    What did he end up doing?

    I started the season down 3700 with my guy. We usually settle up at 4k in either direction, so I had to be careful not to have any bad weeks early.

    We're even now. I've been rocking out. knock on wood.
