Who here has done online sports betting for $$$$ ?

Karma Bookie is whetting my appetite for the real thing. How have you guys done? Made some money? Lost your shirt? Or is it just for kicks?

Am I better off sticking to betting little green dots vs greenbacks?

Comments appreciated.

damn bro, i havent done any online, but almost lost all i had with my neighborhood friendly albanian-italian bookie......i mean he was a man of his word but he made sure the odds were favoring them.......everytime i won i got a prompt payout, and everytime i lost i paid promptly....i mean they do trust you and give you credit, but when its time to pay you better have the money up front or no good can come out of it.......

I think its safer betting online, but if you dont want the hassle, find a good bookie and take your business there.............i made a lot here in the bookie forum, but recently lost over 500K.....now im back where i was months ago....thank god i didnt play in real money or i would've lost my house....

a couple years ago I tried to sign up with a site
but it was too much of a pain to get money into an account
no credit cards,fine
so I tried a debit card with cash I had in my bank account,but my bank was one of many on a list that didn't allow these 'type" transactions
sort of pissed me off that my money was being parented for me

Yes this is what kinda scares me. I've watched my karma grow and then dissapear and grow again, which is fun. With money that could be dangerous...and addicting. I would definitely go with the online option before getting a bookie. Don't need any broken thumbs.

I've been looking at Sportsbetting.com. Looks easy enough, maybe I'll start with a $100 play money. Maybe my bank doesn't allow it either...

Best to go just for kicks IMO I recently purchased $100 worth of k afterwards thought I coulda spent that at the real place betting real money. This is fun and thats as far as i really wanna take it. We have casinos here but no sports betting only cards and machines, It's only a matter of time. The Indians are getting revenge.......
