looking for a local

[EV180]

no I don't need credit. I can post. just looking for somebody solid who isn't trying to scam. I'm now done with bovada and looking for an alternative as offshores have left a bad taste in my mouth

Go find a sports bar, become a regular, and ask around.

 

[EV180]

I guess I'll try that next. not much of a sports bar type of dude. there is a reason I have dish with all the sports channels lol but I guess you are right I'll do what I have to do

What is wrong with bovada

 

[EV180]

do you play with them? my gripes is they take your money easily but pay outs suck. the main issue I have with them is they manipulate my ml and spreads. my friend has an account and when I see his lines they are always better by half to a full point sometimes. not to mention he has way more ml available on games then I do. sometimes I can't even better on games that he has on his board. is that enough reasons? lol

Bovada was never famous for being a "sharp" friendly shop, even when they were Bodog they were catered down to the recreational player in every way. Dont expect them to grow balls all of a sudden.

 

[EV180]

yeah well that's why I closed up acct and now I'm looking :/

 

[EV180]

and I definitely wouldn't consider myself a sharp but a recreational better myself but it sucks when you see you are getting dicked with linesome with your own eyes

their must be a ton of locals or pseudo locals all with access
to PPH websites. just make yourself available and non
threatening in bars or places where people gamble.
in the card rooms of so cal I am propositioned on
a regular basis. unfortunately it is by bookies,
not by good looking women or men.

EV, if you are in the dallas area go to the win star
casino poker room. if you can't find a local there,
then you must look like or be acting like an
undercover agent. in other areas, the local
poker games all have players who are
bookies, agents, or bet with them.

Never used Bovada but I did use Bodog a long time ago. Payouts really sucked and left.

I use Bet365 and payouts take 5 days. My local however is next day. I highly recommend him to anyone in the 6. Been dealing with him for 30 years.

 

[EV180]

exactly. having dealt with a local back in the day then having gone the book route. nothing betterthen dealing with somebody on a weekly basis. to me that's like a fresh reset
