NGT - Sportsbook betting

I Love Clams Casino : 9/11/2018 8:15 am
Any NJ BBI'ers betting on Sportsbook from DraftKings?

If so, what do you think?

TIA BBI!
Yes

I like it. Looking forward to them adding the ability to buy points, but so far not a bad product. The in-game lines are nice feature, though those things are always a ripoff odds-wise.

No issues so far.

...let you just simply bet games? Points/money line/over-unders, etc.

OR is it all fantasy football related?

It's not Fantasy, no...You can bet straight up winner/loser w/spread and I think w/o spread too. You can bet over/under. They have player stats like "so and so player" to score first, score at all, etc etc. Caveat - You have to be within NJ...it uses location services to determine where you are.
What are the alternatives?

Do the Meadowlands, Borgata, etc. have established betting sites? Does Draftkings serve as the Meadowlands bookie?

DraftKings is in Resorts Casino in Atlantic City. The DraftKings Sportsbook rolled out under the property’s license in mid August.

I think there are now 5 apps but I am overwhelmed and not sure which one to get.

You just have to be in NJ to place the bet just like Vegas. They don't check residences on ID or anything.
Wonder if a Mock GPS app on a Rooted phone

It won't. All the apps do a location check. If it detects a rooted phone, the location check fails and you can't continue. Evwn with Magisk, which can fool google pay, still no luck. I use an old non-rooted phone for betting instead.
