Are there any adw that take pa customers that aren't penn or philly affiliated? Bet america just informed me that they can no longer accept my wagers.

I live outside Philly, and I have a Twinspires account. Also, I believe TVG has something through Harrah's Chester, but if you are inclined to use them, you might have to research that one: I think you may have to live so close to that track to be eligible.

Yes, Twinspires and TVG are the choices but neither one gives you rebates. As usual, horseplayers get screwed.

I believe PABETS/TVG is run by expressbet, and twinspires will also take your bets, but I don't think anyone else in this country will take your bets. Certainly no one that offers rebates, unless you go offshore.

I'm very surprised that betptc hasn't dropped you. I like Betptc.

FYI, TVG does give a TINY rebate of 0.2%. If you bet $2500, you get the princely sum of $5. They have the gall to call this their Wagering Reward program.

Dayatthetrack and link2bet (through startwinningmoney) both take PA wagers, but they don't offer a lot of the top notch tracks, if that's your thing.

I'm also in pittsburgh where they have shuttered 95% of the otbs locally.play through twinspires and have previously had wagers with racing2day I think it was called...twinspires is great but the rebates (if you want to call them that) stink...i wanted to deposit over 1k before and they made me jump through hoops which I though was silly for just over 1k

Dayatthetrack does not allow wagers from PA residents.

From PA and I hav to take my action offshore. Pretty silly to lose thousands of dollars in rebates playing with tvg and twinspires. There are only a few reliable offshore books so choose carefully.

Any recommendations?Have you tried Betptc (adw) ..they still take PA residents. I have covered some of these ADWs here on my blog (http://stockgage.blogspot.com/p/horses.html) . I live in centra PA by the way, and far enough from Penn National and Preqsue Isle.

If Betptc still takes PA. residents, I would imagine it's only a matter of time before they drop them. Good company though, I like BETPTC.

Has something changed whereby existing Pa customers should be concerned with betptc? I'm confused.

Has something changed whereby existing Pa customers should be concerned with betptc? I'm confused. So far, it seems to be ok for existing pa customers with betptc.

(Another smaller adw who I had an account with due to rebates, who I will not name here) sent me this email in late Oct 2013

"We indeed had to close the accounts as the state is charging a 10% tax on all out of state ADW's. The tracks in PA, want you to bet with their sites (of course, you lose the option of competition and have to accept their low offers).

Obviously, believe it's not fair and does not let others to play on a level field. We are not opposed to paying additional fees to the horsemen, but to be forced to pay 10% wipes out all rewards and we would lose money on most every bet."

For horse race betting 5dimes is by far the best. Other solid ones Bookmaker and Betonline.

5dimes rebates are incredible and they even offer a 10% racebook which adds ur winnings by 10%.

what are the max payouts if you don't mind me asking?
they wiggle out of paying actual track prices never mind if youre the only one who had the pick 4/5/6/7/8/9/26 and must settle for 25 of 26 paying $18 :faint: :p :rolleyes: :D

The money not going into the pools is a good thing bud. Small rebates? 9% on exotics is small compared to legal shops which are pretty much nothing?

There are still a few ADW's that gladly Pennsylvania action, and I use one them. Of couse they will not tell you that fact. They have gotten rid of the small bettors simply to comply with the law. They don't need the legal headache if you are a small bettor.

As for 5Dimes, I lasted three weeks there a long while ago. It seems if you are a winning bettor, and bet larger, you are shown the door.
