basically this means that instead of needing the Tide to win by at least 8 or 9 points, you only need them to win at all, for the same price.
max is $50, but it's not THAT much of a lock.
still worth a taste, for most.

I can't figure out that MGM bonus - how quickly do I have to 'burn' through bets, and how do I know how far along I am?

So about MGM:
- I really like their interface. Very clean, has a Sportsbook Casino type feel, and it's very easy to navigate the various props. I like the "Favorites" button, which makes going to a specific event easy.
- I really dislike their app, lol. It takes a long time to load, and they don't have a Touch ID log-in option, which means needing to type in the password every time. They need to fix this ASAP. Nothing worse than trying to log-in to bet live and see the app hang and trying to remember a password.

on my desktop, BetMGM does not have a scroll-down button on the right side of the screen.
I have to keep jabbing down at "air" to finally get it to jump, then awkwardly try to scroll back up.
fyi, DK's counter last night was to offer OVER 69 points at even money rather than -230, or -110 at the usual 76 points.
with a 52-24 final, that 'boost' carried me to more cash

NJ just checked in with its December gaming report, and a record $996.3 million was legally wagered in the state last month.
that's up for a 7th consecutive month, and is another national record.
$6 billion bet in 2020. books kept about $400M, and $50M of that goes into the state tax coffers.finished 10th in this 37th yr in 11-team-only NL 5x5

JJ, you have to bet 2x your MGM bonus. So on $500, I have to wager $1,000. Best way to do it is to arb it on another site, so I went with two “bonus laundering” bets:
- $100 o55.5 on Bills-Ravens on DK, $203 on MGM u55.5. Guarantees $305 on one of those sites ($2 profit)
- $150 o64.5 on Browns-Chiefs on DK, $325 on MGM u64.5. Guarantees $487.50 on one of those sites ($12.50 profit)
I’m not really concerned about the profits, but more the churning without loss. This takes care of $528 of it.

Bills-Ravens is down from 55.5 to 49.5 on DK and also on MGM
but the premise is excellent anyway!
I only needed to double $100 on MGM - but I think tomorrow would have been last day.
so I went 25 each on CLE-KC, GB-LAR, and O/U BUF-BAL with same lines - oppositing MGM vs DK bets.
I'll lose a couple of bucks, literally, but now I have fully "earned" my $100 match so that's a nice profit for the weekend.Last edited by Judge Jude; 01-15-2021, 10:35 PM.finished 10th in this 37th yr in 11-team-only NL 5x5
