Online Gambling

 One of the reasons that the Bookmaker.com sportsbook is not rated highly at The Online Casino Gambling Directory is because it has a huge minimum deposit ($300) and no bonus on credit card deposits.

But, from now through Feb 1, new players can get a 25% bonus on all deposits of between $100 and $2000. Plus, new players get:

• One free entry to the BookMaker’s SuperBowl Prop Contest
• One free entry to the BookMaker’s SuperBowl Blackjack Tournament
• One free entry to the BookMaker’s March Madness bracket Contest
• One free $5 SuperBowl Office Pool Square

Seems like a great deal at Bookmaker.com, and comes at an opportune time to bet the NFL Conference Championship games, as well as Super Bowl XLII on Feb 3! If you take them up on this offer, please do let me know about your experience — good or bad.

The NFL season is down to eight teams vying for a Super Bowl championship.

I don’t know about you, but I think that the weekend after wildcard weekend is the best of the season. And this year, there is the added excitment of seeing if the Patriots can pull off an undefeated season! Even though I am a Bengals fan, it sure is interesting to watch one of the best teams ever assembled in my lifetime try to pull this off.

Here are the current lines at Intertops.

Intertops is one of about a dozen sportsbooks that currently accept US bettors, and — as of this writing — is one of only three sportsbooks that accept US bettors that have been awarded a 5-star rating at The Online Casino Gambling Directory.

Here’s what I have my eye on this weekend. head on over to Intertops to check out the lines.

• Saturday
  • ALCS Game 6: Cleveland Indians at Boston Red Sox. Shilling goes for the Sox, and is looking to rebound from his poor start earlier in the series. He looked awesome against the Angles, but the Indians seems to have him figured out. Can he take the Sox to a deciding Game 7? Or will the Indians take the series and face off against the streaking Colorado Rockies in the World Series?
  • UFC 77 – Hostile Territory: Cincinnati Ohio native Jorge Gurgel takes on Alvin Robinson in a featured bout. Gurgel is looking to revenge an earlier defeat at the hands on Robinson. And then there is the main event, featuring Rich Franklin taking on UFC Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva. Should be a great evening of Ultimate Fighting!
• Sunday
  • Tampa Bay @ Detroit and Chicago @ Philadelphia look to be two of the more evenly-matched games on the Week 7 NFL schedule. I’m picking both of the home teams in these two games.
