Two Questions

[zipppy]

Hi all-

I'm a regular reader/poster in the STT forum, but I decided to take a small portion of my winnings and just have fun with some sports betting. I've never done this before, and I have a couple quick questions--

If I place baseball bets, which has more variance...the runline or the moneyline? Are they similar?

What's the legality of online sports betting from the US? I thought when I signed up for my eurobet poker account that I read I couldn't place sports bets (due to living in the US). Would it be any more/less legal for me to place bets on BoDog (or pinnacle, etc...)?

Thanks, Zipppy

Murky. Thus far the government has only chosen to go after bookmakers and not the individual players (one individual was prosecuted, but that was a state case).
