Remember Centsports? You Can Bet on Sports, Free to Join
A little while ago I made a post about how I could bet on sports even though I live in the USA. If you didn’t know, you are not allowed to bet on sports online if you live in teh USA. But I found a site that is FREE to join, you can bet on a number of sports AND you can cash out if your balance reaches $20.
How could that be possible you ask? I put NO money down and I can cash out real money in the end? Yes you can! The site is paid for by adverisers and the bets are paid out from the sites ad revenue.
Now that you have it figured out, I just wanted to post a quick note about how I have been doing. For the last week or so, my balance has been going up and down pretty drastically. I had a high of about $9.08 and a within a couple days, was right back down to $1.00! The site is completely addicting and can be fun, when you are winning, of course.
So, I have decided to take a statistical approach to the whole betting thing and just try to pick ONE winner. There are about 15 different sports to bet on per day, there has to be ONE sure shot, right? LOL – I know, I must be crazy, but that is how I got my balance up to $9+ in the first place. I could always bet on Tennis and it was easy to see the “lock”. The ranked players would typically beat the “no-namers”, so I would toss most of my balance at that match and cross my fingers.
Needless to say, there have been some upsets this year, so it’s not ALL fun a games. If you like to bet on sports, this website is something you should check out for sure! You will NOT be disappointed. You can setup your free account here.
CentSports.com – Bet on Sports for Free
Ever wish you could bet on sports even though you don’t live in Las Vegas? Online betting was banned in the USA back in 2006, but with excellent minds in the colleges all over the nation, we get websites like CentSports.com.
It was created as a project by students in College Station, Texas and are all somewhat associated with Texax A&M University. It was created in response to the 2006 banning of online sports betting. Yippie for us!
Which Games Can You Bet On?
Almost every college and professional
- baseball
- basketball
- football
- hockey
- with more (soccer, horse racing) on the way.
How Does It Work? (straight from the FAQ page)
It’s simple … when you first sign up for CentSports, we give you ten cents ($0.10) play money to bet with. You can use this to bet on almost any major college or professional sporting event (MLB, NBA and NFL games, etc.). Anything you win you keep and can use to place more bets, accumulating money as you go.
You can cash out whenever you want (as soon as you have a balance of over $20.00 play money) … we’re actually gracious enough to send you a check for your play-money account balance … just straight up, dollar for dollar.
We’ve tried to replicate what you can do at real sports betting sites … i.e., you can make standard line-type bets such as over/under, point-spread, and moneyline bets. In fact, we get our lines straight from Vegas … any bet you make on CentSports could be made with any sports bookie in Vegas for the same odds if you were betting for real money.
Overall, the site makes more from advertising than people cash out … though one of our goals in creating the site was to make sure that as much of the site’s advertising revenue goes back to CentSports user as possible (after all, they’re the ones who earned it by viewing ads in the first place!).
Now that you see you CAN bet on sports in the USA, why not give it a try? The worst thing that could happen is that you will have to reload your account a couple times before you get it right ![]()
