I was looked at the map. There’s basically no sports betting on the West Coast.

California voters gave the thumbs down last election. Good for offshore shops.

Those were terrible propositions, they created an extremely unfair market place. I’ve tried to consult with Sacramento to put up something better and protect the people, us, the bettors, or any of us that might one day want to start a book or exchange.

Those big houses really wanted into California and paid hundreds of millions to try to sneak in and exclude everyone else.

Fukk that.

I keep saying I want to drive over state lines and open some accounts there. Do you have any? Wondering the best way to attack to maximize EV

Check the bonuses, that's currently the best way, just be a bonus whore and try to stick to + or 0 EV bets to churn a rollover.

Give them your Nevada address, and all you have to do is be present in the state to make the bets.

You can even withdraw when you go back home. You can do nearly everything on the account from your Nevada home except bet. You need to be within statelines of Zona to bet.

They will know who you are if you're not just placing bets in person. It's normal verification.

I'm trying to form a group with easier Zona access than me, it's a long drive. I was in Flagstaff last fall trying to get up and running. There are a lot of books in Zona and a lot bonuses. I don't want to post too much about breaking rules, but it helps me to have someone else in the state already, even if they are logging into my accounts along with their own accounts.

This is part of growing that business "wide" as opposed to "deep" that I mention in my intro to sportsbetting video.

Biggest hurdle I had so far was lack of 21 year olds to sign up.

I got a lot of eager 18 year olds, but they are literally useless unless they trade on someone else's account, like mine.

lmao

I personally think that's just asking for trouble down the line.

Yeah, that's a delicate thing for sure.

Best not to have anybody operate on more than one account.

If someone is trading for me, that will be the only accounts they trade under and nobody else can trade for me at that time.

You're right, must be careful of the same ips on different accounts.

Fukk that.

The big problem is that they can try every two years and all they will likely do is put up the same exact proposition.

Could fail again, might not.

We need a change. The option is the Tribe, and if I had choice I would have taken that but it was still shit. It meant that you could bet sports, but it had to be in person on Tribal land.

I figured we could take the Tribes trying to make book for a while before they realize they're getting killed. But that was all it had going for it, and nothing else.

Will be interesting to see what hits the ballot next in California. I'm trying to get involved in consulting in Sacramento, because none of them really know the business, it seems. And DK, FD and those fukks aren't bookmakers, they're advertising companies, basically.

So nobody knows what the fukk they're doing, especailly the ones with the most control...the Tribes.

It's a shitshow here in California. Seems like the only way to fix it is to run for office and I'm don't think I'm going to do that, but I have not ruled it out.
