Major League Baseball 2013: World Series Futures Odds

MLB Logo

Major League Baseball spring training is underway in Florida and Arizona. All 30 teams have reported, and are preparing for the upcoming 162-game campaign that lasts from April through September. Last year’s MLB World Series Champions, the damned San Francisco Giants, and among the favorites to win the World Series in 2013.

My pick — like every year — is that my beloved Cincinnati Reds will go all the way.

Oddsmakers like Bovada, OddsMaker, and JustBet, are all over the board with their odds to win the 2013 MLB World Series and the pennants. For example, a $100 wager on the Cincinnati Reds to win the World Series pays twice as much at OddsMaker.com ($1500) than it does at JustBet.com ($750). This is a great example of why it pays to have more than one sportsbook account — so that you can shop lines.

2012 MLB Baseball – 2nd Half Betting Thoughts

The second half of the 2012 MLB Baseball season gets underway tomorrow. In the National League, the surprising Pirates will try to hold their lead over the Reds, and the World Series Champions Phillies will try to right their sinking ship. Over in the American League, it looks like all Yankees in the East, and a three-way fight for the division title in the Central.

  • I’ll be looking to bet against the Phillies; they keep losing and losing, yet they were consistently favored, especially leading up to the All-Star break.
  • I’ll also be looking to bet against the Pirates; they have been over-achieving all year, and they are due to come back to earth.
  • Seattle and Houston are miserable teams, and should be heavy dogs against top-tier teams. Look for value bets on them with the right matchups.

Bovada provides competitive MLB Baseball lines and live MLB betting to online bettors around the world, including residents of the United States. Promotions include:

  • 20% Sign-up Bonus: To receive your sign up bonus deposit into your Bovada account and instantly receive a 20% Free Bet bonus up to $100.
  • Roy’s Rewards: Roy is chasing 200 wins — Bet $20 on games that he starts and get a $10 bonus if he is credited with the win. Good until he reaches 200 wins.

ewallet, online gambling, tips

Use UseMyWallet to Reduce Withdrawal Costs

UseMyWallet, also referred to as QuickTender, is an invitation-only e-wallet that is becoming increasingly popular with online bingo rooms, online casinos, online poker rooms, ans online sportsbooks. Payouts from online gambling sites to UseMyWallet are at no cost to you, compared to payouts via checks that can cost up to $50.

If you have more than one online gambling site where you withdraw from on a regular basis, and they support UseMyWallet, you may want to consider having all payouts into your UseMyWallet account, and then do a single payout from your UseMyWallet account. The cost for a payout from UseMyWallet to a linked bank account is $30 + what your bank charges to receive an international wire transfer (usually in the $12-$25 dollar range).

Another benefit of having a UseMyWallet account is that you can use it as a way to transfer funds from one online gambling site to another, at no cost to you. It will take a few days to complete the transfer, but if you want to transfer funds from a casino to a sportsbook, for example, UseMyWallet may be a way to do that.

To get a UseMyWallet account, the general guideline is that you need to have made $500 in deposits and withdrawals AND have an active account for 90 days or more before requesting that the online gambling site send you an invitation to open a UseMyWallet account. Doyle’s Room Poker and Casino does it this way, although the requirements to receive a UseMyWallet invitation may vary at other sites.
