I regret that I didn't go to the casino Saturday night & bet what I wanted to: Bills on the money line & the under.  When it was 16-0 I was feeling good for not betting the game in a game I thought was too close to call, but disappointed that I didn't bet the under.  My plan all along was to save my $ for an easier game week 2 vs NYG, since the preseason lines had the Giants -1.5 (I don't think I could have bet that).  When I saw Bills at less than a field goal vs the Giants (current line Bills -2.5) I rushed over to the casino, 22 miles from home & got the bet in on the Bills this morning. 

Can't do that in Virginia.  Our Indians were apparently not good a math, therefore, no casinos.

You're not alone.  There are only 13 states that currently allow sports betting.  Fortunately (I hope) NY is one of the 13.

Gambling but no Fracking??

Let the Pegulas worry about the fracking ban, I've been waiting a long time to bet football & I think this is the best season to do it because the public hasn't caught on how good the Bills are yet.  This means we have a game we could dominate that we can bet the Bills to win by only a field goal so if the game is a lot closer than I think, I can still eek out a win.  This means anyone betting futures before the season started is in great shape.  For the majority this means they were able to get a winning bet in by betting the Bills to be no worse than .500.  We have virtually 2 wins guaranteed vs Miami, we have one in the bag from yesterday and only need 5 more wins out of the remaining 13 games.  I took it a step further by betting different win totals so I can win more if they win 9 or more games & make the playoffs and I only break even at 8-8, but I like my chances at 1-0 a lot better than if they were 0-1.

Best of luck!  I envy your "freedom."
