Actually after the law passed on June 1st, 2010 prohibiting some online transactions I've pretty much stopped ******** online.
I can still gamble of course, but as I talked to the rep on the line of the sportsbook, I had to get a certain type of pre-paid visa at a currency exchange of all places, whereas before I was able to use my bank visa or one of my credit cards, but despite them being fully funded, I was unable to deposit money from them because I was suspected of engaging in online activity with them.
I asked how this law was enforced and they said it's randomly.
I have very common visa cards, and apparently none of them would approve my transfer to my online account despite being well funded.
The funny thing about it all is it's not like I gambled all the time.
The max I would spend was 300 bucks more often than not it was harmless bets of 20 bucks or 10 bucks or just a little for fun.
That's pretty much why I stopped this summer.Comment

I agree man, but I am not condoning ******** for everyone, it is not for fools.
If you're not ready to study and analyze the sport, styles, and its participants save your money. There is money to be made if you actually know what you're doing.
My problem is that my favorite is parlaying and sometimes saying **** it and betting on international fights.
I got robbed by the faggot ass judges from the Aydin-Dan fight of a $500 win when I bet on Dan winning. I would've gotten some good money if I would've bet more money on Miguel Vazquez to win by decision alone since I was sure he was going to do to Kim what he did, but I got greedy and bet on Dawson too.
I've stopped betting after that, I will study my ass off to get it going again in November, maybe a warm up fight in between.
These posters would be a lot more knowledgeable about the sport if they became gamblers. That's for damn sure.Comment

If anybody wants to know this is basically the law that came into effect on June 1st, 2010 and altered my betting routines.

Doesn't Western Union Charge a lot, like 10 bucks or so every time you deposit?
I think that was the reason I just said **** it because I was getting it for free with a cc and I'd get bonus credits as well.
Then again if you put in 100 or so, they'd probably give you some bonus credit anyways now and again.Comment

Boxing is actually not difficult to bet on. You just have to bet a lot to win a lot because it's hard to find juicy odds. And you have to understand the system where you can bet on both guys to cushion your bet.
I switched ******** sites and this one lets me parlay boxing. I almost nutted on my keyboard. I won 100 on a ridiculously (to me) easy parlay Soto to win, Ortiz to win, and Mora +9 in rounds on a decision. I'll be taking advantage of this in the future.
Of course then I pissed it all away on football the next day.Comment
