    Neither have a tax? Sweet, do they have referral program?

    You can use Bovada here in the states, if that is what you are asking.

    I am in Austin, I would love to have a bookie, not sure where to look for one around here.

    I have DAL at +6.5...Bev out and Harden injured are too much against hot Ellis and generally solid Dallas team I guess. I still hope HOU wins, but I think DAL will be able to cover the spread.

    I'm on the T-Wolves -2 vs. OKC tonight.

    I was hoping for a mini-perfect storm with Miami winning their 1st two games while Brooklyn lost their 1st game setting up a good play on the Nets tonight. But since Miami lost to Philly, I'm staying away from that one.

    I also had a mini-perfect storm take place with the Wiz losing their first game and Philly winning against the Heat, but Washington -9, -9.5 is too many points for me.

    I might add another play later.

    I took OKC +2. I also think the Lakers are a great bet at +7.5 (Duncan isn't playing and it's in Staples). I might take them on the moneyline too.

    I'm going against the Heat tonight and taking Brooklyn +3.5... think it means more to Brooklyn + home opener. Also gonna take Sac +3.5. Clips spent a lot of energy on a late game last night, and even though it's not a long flight from LA to SAC, it's still at least 3 hrs total travel time from the arena to the hotel and I can't imagine they got to their hotel room before 2am at the earliest.

    You've convinced me. I'm on Brooklyn +3.5 as well. I also like the fact that AK47 is going to be ready for this game. A nice defender to throw at LBJ.

    Edit: I actually got it at +4.

    Krilienko has back spasms and DWill is on limited minutes...I'd stay away from that game. Miami hardly loses two in a row.

    However, Bobcats are missing Jefferson so Cavs have easy work tonight. Should be a no brainer.

    People are liking the Wiz game to be under because of their defense from last season but in their last 5 or 7 games overs has won. Another no bet for the night. Nothing really looks good.

    But it does, bookies are considering PHX a favourite against Utah Jazz. Even though PHX plays at home, I don't but into their hype. They stun Portland and Utah will be prepared. Their frontcourt will stomp all over PHX.

    Another no bet, but I like the Suns to win.

    John Lucas III is the Jazz's starting PG and his backup is old man Tinsley. The Sun's have better frontcourt depth with more experience.

    I took UTA at +3.5 and barely won. Good prediction sir.

    2-0 tonight....3-1 YTD

    Looking at Portland +2.5 at home vs the Spurs tomorrow night.

    I was on the the fence about taking Brooklyn, but thanks for convincing me my man.

    Do you know if Duncan's playing?

    Portland's effort was inexistend against PHX, but against DEN who played at home they excelled. Two hot&cold games so far. They are very unpredictable at this point...

    Sorry for not confirming this pick earlier, but I jumped on the Blazers +1 tonight... 4-1 YTD

    <a target='_blank' title='ImageShack - Image And Video Hosting' href='http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/812/wybe.jpg/'><img src='http://imageshack.us/a/img812/6453/wybe.jpg' border='0'/></a><br>Uploaded with <a target='_blank' href='http://imageshack.us'>ImageShack.us</a>

    I have nothing for tomorrow, but OKC ats and Lakers ats both look decent. I'm looking long and hard at the Cavs against the T-Wolves on Monday.

    Kevin Love is on a hot streak and Kevin Martin apparently found his shooting touch. Meanwhile Kyre Irving is struggling a bit at the moment and he's the motor of their offense. I went with Minnesota +2.

    Love, Pek, Rubio played 40 minutes... Cavs are at home. Tough call.
