    CORRECTION: For the bonus bet promotion you generally don't get your principal back if win the bonus bet. So in the Bet MGM example the expected profit is $318.75 not $683.75 as stated in the video.

    I like betting on sports but i never watch the games, i bet $5 on horse #, go have dinner ,then go check if i won or lost, because watching sports is boring.

    I'm really surprised the Native American casinos weren't mentioned here. For many they are just down the road, you don't need a passport, and they have no problem dealing in the US dollar.
