Online Sports Betting Procedures
The standard way to make a sports bet is visit a betting shop. You will find sportsbooks in many Nevada casinos and betting shops across Europe. A bettor should find the three- or four-digit number by the team (rotation number) and tell the ticket writer along with the amount he would like to wager. This process is the same for in-play and futures bets.
Parlays, teasers, pleasers and other exotic bets have a different procedure. The sportsbooks supply bettors with many parlay type of cards to mark your selections. These have the list of all the events available to put in a multiple-outcome ticket. A player uses a pencil to mark the sides he wants to choose for the ticket. The ticket writer simply puts this card into a machine that writes the card. Whatever method of placing a bet your local shop uses, one very important part of the transaction is to check your ticket before leaving.
Sports betting is easily accessible to players in most countries. The procedure for opening an account at an internet sportsbook varies by region. In European, sportsbooks ask a player his name, age, and address. Software verifies the player’s identity and then permits a deposit to be made. The minimum age in most countries is 18. Some countries, especially where sports betting is not regulated, require no such verification process.
European players and those in many other countries outside the U.S. can deposit funds without ever setting foot inside a betting shop.
Nevada players have a different procedure. A Nevada online and mobile sports bettor must make an account in a sportsbook. This requires a player to be at least 21 years of age. A valid photo ID is required. Anybody of age can create a Nevada sports account. A Nevada residency is not mandated.
Once an account is created and funded, the process of making an online or mobile sports bet is simple. A player logs into his sports account with a username and password and choose a type of bet. The options online typically include straight, parlay, teaser, in-play or future. Some exotic bets like elections or entertainment may also be options, depending on the country where the wager originates.
The next step is to choose sides within a sport. This is as simple as clicking the corresponding box within the app or website. A player then chooses how much to wager on this. A secondary window will confirm the wager. The app or website then ensures that a player is within the proper jurisdiction to make the wager. Once that process is complete, the bet is booked.
How to deposit at an online sportsbook
One convenience of online sportsbooks is the ability to make a deposit remotely. This eliminates the nuisance of having to visit a betting shop. Many online sportsbooks offer a wide variety of deposit methods. The options available depend on the country of the player. Sportsbooks outside of Nevada offer Visa, MasterCard, Neteller, Paypal, Skrill and debit cards common in the local jurisdiction. Some also permit bank transfers. The deposit minimum is often just $5 or $10. Bitcoin (cryptocurrency) is the newest money option.
Nevada sportsbooks often require a player to walk into the local shop to make a deposit. The deposit minimum in Nevada is at least $50, but it is common to find books that demand $100, at least when opening an account. William Hill offers two ways for players in Nevada to deposit without having to visit a sportsbook. There are more than 50 taverns with deposit kiosks. These operate in the same bars where Golden Gaming owns the slot route. The minimum deposit at a kiosk is $5. William Hill also accepts PayNearMe. This is a cash transfer service similar to Western Union and MoneyGram. A player gets William Hill’s merchant information any of the 200 kiosks at any of the 7-Eleven convenience stores. The minimum deposit is $20. The maximum is $500.
