Message: [QUOTE="Golden Husky, post: 2664079, member: 8090"] The lines are from s p o r t b e t.com. The line opened at UConn -9 and has now been bet up to UConn -13. You do realize that thousands, if not millions of Americans still have active off-shore wagering accounts.[/QUOTE] [COLOR=#330066]Sure, and the likelihood of the Feds tracking your computer activity, breaking down your door and hauling you off to jail is minimal (we hope) but it is illegal. The Amateur and Professional Sports Protection Act of 1992, banning sports gambling in all but four states, Oregon, Montana, Nevada and Delaware, made that happen. The US Supreme Court will hear an appeal from New Jersey, this year. The most reliable wagering emporiums, including the UK's "Big Three" of Ladbrokes, the William Hill Agency (called "Hills") and Coral, do not accept betting from Americans. Most other UK books, including Paddy Power, Betfair and Pinnacle, have adopted the same policy.[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
