Tip off the NBA playoffs with a 50% bonus & $250 parlay contest

OddsMaker is a US-friendly casino, poker room, and sportsbook. From a single wallet, you can conveniently transfer your stake between the casino, poker room, and sportsbook as you would like.

Through March 31, 2017, OddsMaker is offering a 50% bonus on deposits with a 20x sportsbook rollover.

The Promotion Code “50hoops” entitles the member to a Real Money Match Bonus of 50%.

Example: If you deposit $500, you will receive a $250 real money match bonus. All bonus money given to you will be located in your Casino and Sportsbook Account as real money. The offer cannot be combined with other existing promotions. The promotion can only be claimed once. In order to cash out you must rollover the deposit plus the bonus 20 times.

Remember to redeem the promo code BEFORE making your deposit. Offer expires May 31st, 2017

In addition, if you have at least $100 in your account, you can participate in their free $250 parlay contest.

Simply pick the games listed with the points, and go 5/5 and cash in $250. Although your Funds will not be debited, you need to have a minimum balance of $100 in your real money account to place the free parlay.

If you like sports other than the NBA, OddsMaker offers a full range of betting options on all the popular (and not-so-popular) sports. Along with $10 free bets offered on various sports on various days, keep a look out for 20% reload bonuses on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

One drawback for US players — they only offer bank wire and checks as withdraw methods, with fees from $45-$55. However, once you achieve Gold VIP status, checks over $500 are sent at no charge.

MLB Playoffs: Oakland A’s @ Kansas City Royals

Oakland is in a real funk, and Kansas City is rejoicing over their first playoff appearance in 25+ years. Tonight, these two teams meet in a one-game, winner-take-all, wild card playoff game to advance in the 2014 MLB Playoffs.

While the odds on this baseball game are different at different online sportsbooks, you’ll probably find that the odds are about -105 on either side.

Kansas City (89-73) will send James Shields to the mound against Oakland left-hander Jon Lester. The Royals went 5-2 against the Athletics this year, but both of their losses came against Lester.

Look for Lester to hold the Royals to under 3 runs, but the A’s offense will be nowhere to be found. I like the Royals in a low-scoring game — perhaps 4-1.

    The 4 Best Online Poker Sites for US Players

    I’ve been playing poker online for several years now. Based on my experiences, feedback from others, and news reports (both good and bad), here is my list of the 4 best online poker sites for US players.

    1. Doyle’s Room – Free and easy credit card and e-wallet deposits, fast and free e-wallet withdrawals (express check withdrawals are $50), and their unique bounty tournaments set this poker room apart from the others. Doyle’s Room operates on the Cake Poker network, the 4th-largest poker network open to US players in terms of number of players. They also have a pretty good casino, too. Accepting players from 47 states (KY, WA, LA are barred), Doyle’s Room is a great choice for playing poker online. Current online poker promotion for new players: Get a 110% bonus up to $550.
    2. Full Tilt – There is always a lot of action at Full Tilt, the 2nd-largest poker network in terms of number of players. E-checks are free for depositing and withdrawing, so that’s a real bankroll saver. Also, thinking back to when I first opened an account with Full Tilt, their initial deposit bonus was generous and straightforward to clear. Current online poker promotion for new players: Get a 100% bonus up to $600.
    3. PokerStars – The granddaddy of them all, PokerStars is the largest poker room in the world — it’s about twice as big as Full Tilt. The PokerStars lobby is full-featured, yet still easy-to-use; the tabbed interface and filtering options allow you to customize its display of just the cash games, tourneys, and poker variants that you want to see. Freerolls abound at PokerStars. E-checks are free for depositing and withdrawing. Current online poker promotion for new players: Get a 100% bonus up to $600.
    4. OddsMaker.com Poker – This is one of 70+ rooms in the growing Merge Network. While I suppose that one room on the network is as good as any other, OddsMaker.com also has a sportsbook, racebook, and casino, which is convenient if you like to bet sports, play table games, and win at some video poker. Their initial signup offer is simpler than it sounds: $10 rake = 800 VIP points = $10 free money released to real money account. Current online poker promotion for new players: Get a 100% bonus up to $1000 + 14 days of entries into a daily $500 freeroll.
