Indiana Gambling

We can reimburse the wager amount but winnings are sent to state for determination. The law was passed with sports betting bill. Once you have your ssn in system, its relatively quick. Taxes come into play with a winning ticket 300/1 or more with atleast 5k i believe. We advise this to players if the payout would exceed this.

This explains a lot and why it took more time than I thought to get my tickets cashed. You guys run an instant check with the state before you can payout? That part was never explained to me.

I've yet to cross over the river and check out the sports betting.

Is it full betting?

Like all sports and 1st quarters/periods and halves, and totals and all that fun stuff?

Or is the sports betting just on full game side and/or full game totals ?

Any player props and team props for games?

It’s usually everything Louisville but nothing special with odds

We quickly find out odds are generic

**The General** · 12-10-19, 11:18 PM

The check determines if you are a self identified problem gambler, it determines you are who you say you are and whether you owe back child support. Those 3 components is all. As for props, yes but limited and you have to ask. not enough room on totes for that stuff. Qb and rb stuff plus alternative odds for game. Half time sides and totals. And in game is available too. You just really need to know what you want so to not hold up gamblers in line ready to bet. Also TVs are behind and delayed by the feed. The odds movers are seeing action many seconds b4 the guy in line is.

Interesting to see that Indiana's handle on sports bets for November was 147.3 million compared to 91.7 million in October. Mobile accounted for 2/3 of the handle in November with DraftKings getting 64.1 million, FanDuel 23.7 million, and Rush St (Betrivers) getting 8.4 million in handle. Indiana is definately a basketball state as that accounted for most of the increase.

Interestling, the AGR (the amount the state takes in after payouts) actually went down from October (11.5 million) to November (9.3 million). Sounds like Indiana sports bettors are much better wagering basketball as well.

That sounds like you had to approve your ssn to be added into system. Its basically saying this is who i am and affirming it. You shouldnt have to do that again.

Kev, off the top and i havent looked but i wonder if overs in nba have been a factor early on in hoops.

**jjgold** · 12-12-19, 07:21 AM

Fandual and Draftkings going to dominate every states volume

Cannot compete with their brands

**DoctorStrong** · 12-12-19, 07:45 AM

Indiana does not have a lot of gamblers but I believe the sportsbooks are trying to go nationwide so they are picking off states one by one

In 24 hrs at noon on jan 1 live dealers start working the tables in Indiana. Any of you guys gearing up.

**The General** · 01-02-20, 01:00 AM

Gentleman the last two days working in a small sportsbook in middle America nowhere Indiana was awsome. New year's eve and today the first day of live dealing table games. What a rush. Packed busy exhilarating. Huge figures and wonderful atmosphere.

I've used Draftkings, Fanduel, and Betrivers so far, and honestly, of the Legal indiana Books, Bet Rives has been my favorite. The other 2 just seem way more buggy. My favorite feature on Legal books is they let you Parlay Live Bets. I've been having great success doing 2-3 team ML Live Bet Parlays. I'm not a big fan of betting pregame because I like to see how teams look on a given night. My read on a game seems to be enhanced about 5 minutes into the 2nd half of a game. getting a couple -200 to -300's in a 2 team pays solid if you are laying a decent amount of money. My only issue with legal sites is how long they take to approve your withdrawal. It should be damn near instant in this day and age. I could request a withdrawal at 10 am, have it approved by 10:30, and into my paypal by 1-2 PM. I'm yet to get my withdrawal from Draftkings, Fanduel, Betrivers within 1 day, and most of the time it takes at least 2.

If Betrivers were to get a Apple iPhone App...then I would agree as well. That is their only negative from me. Betrivers would let me fire away on College Football lines as early as Sunday Evening. Small amount approved instantly and then the balance sent for approval which was granted each time within 30 minutes of sending. I will be back next football season with betrivers because of their early lines.

Hey General. You think Indiana Grand will offer a NFL/NCAAF contests this upcoming season? Thanks.

**The General** · 02-19-20, 04:48 PM

There has been discussion about things of that nature so maybe. We're supposed to get the playstation consoles operating after tourney. Competition there should be fun. Teasers suppose to be available today.

No app sucks but I just bookmarked their sign in page and I get my bets in on my phone easy enough. I prefer using my laptop and watching at home when I'm betting big anyways so I'm loving their site. Last night was fun with those small lines in the Baylor and Dayton games. Live betting Baylor, Dayton, Creighton ML's paid great
