i have a bookie...i cant find a site that my credit card company will accept charges from or else id go online so that i can make smaller bets like the $5 one you laid

Listen to this: for fun last night my buddy and I decide to put together a TEN team parlay for 5$ that pays almost 1500.

I bet:

Temple +1.5
UCLA -7
Pitt -3
Southern Miss +16.5
U of Miami -4.5
LSU -5.5
Rhode Island +4
Detroit Red Wings to win
Pistons -9.5
AND....
Memphis Grizzlies -3

Was only doing it for kicks anyway, but I was 8/8 while Memphis entered the 4th quarter tied, and they couldn't pull it out.

That is farging impressive and heartbreaking. Sucker.

no online gambling site can accept a US based credit card. but you need to set up an e-wallet account. i use netteller.

[ice grillin you]

how does that work...i use my credit card to put money in an online account?..like when you pay someone via paypal...

how then does the money get from that account to your online betting site account?

[Wingspan]

yeah, it's pretty much a paypal type thing.

the site payouts vary by sight, some auto deposit, some will put money into your e-wallet account, and some will cut you a check. i play poker on pokerroom.com, and ive never had to wait more than 2 weeks for a payout check.

maybe im retarded and you just told me this....but how does the relationship work between neteller and bodog or whatever betting site you use...how do you get the money from netteller to bodog

[Wingspan]

they have a good relationship, with an active sex life, and open lines of communications.

in reality, or at least the site i use, the account deposit page has a spot to input my netteller user and password, and amount to deposit.

any "reputable" gambling/gaming site should have detailed instructions on what exactly gets transacted. most sites have links directly to the e-wallet sites, as this is the only way US customers can use their site, they are pretty good about walking people through it.

thanks buddy

I also have a neteller account.  You put money through either a credit card or ATM card in neteller.  It's a very secure site, and they call you within the hour to verify its you who is putting the $$ in. 

You can then easily put money in an online site, and when you withdrawl back into neteller, they hotwire the money directly into your bank account.  I've taken out quite a bit of money, and its worked very well for me.

Tonight:

Colorado > Blackhawks
Rangers>Penguins
UNC -4> Virginia.
