Who do you guys wager with? Bodog? I've got some poker money sitting in a few accounts that would be put to better use this way.

Bodog has far and away the worst odds, but it's the easiest to use.

You're basically giving away 1-3 perecent on any given wager. They're also the absolute slowest putting lines up.

Basically, Bodog offers very little to the customer in terms of actually making money.

If you start betting over 500-1000 a week, I'd get the hell out of there.

I'm just stating an opinion here, I'm not trying to rile people up, but for some reason this thread being here on the boards really bothers me. It's weird b/c 1) I know box breaking is essentially gambling and 2) I know prospecting is essentially gambling and keeping track of profits and talking about them on this site is common place. I guess it's just the pure gambling aspect that bothers and the sheer idea of money on the game and it being broadcast for all to see, including younger kids/teenagers that I don't think need exposure to this.

I guess more of my concern is if this thread kept going throughout the season. I worry it draws people into gambling on the game and sports in general, which I guess I just don't agree with.

Anyway, like I said, I just wanted to share an opinion and ask that this not continue on the site. It's nothing more than just a person feeling I wanted to express. I can see both sides of the coin on this one (literally and figuratively).

I cannot agree more. We have a responsibility to the younger crowd on this board and I believe if you want to talk gambling there are plenty of other sites you can do that on. I just dont think this has any place on this board and to keep it rolling through the season would be detrimental to many here on the boards.
