Try BetAmerica.. Just say you live in another state. It is working for me so far.

That would be my option although it could get complicated. I moved from Maryland to New Mexico 5 years ago and Twinspires closed my account when they somehow discovered my financial institutions listed my address in NM.

BetAmerica may not be as thorough. It would help having a relative in a wagering state that would let casp use their address to open a bank account just as a failsafe.

that's why i have to use a greendot moneypak, the credit union blocks any transactions on my debit card to twin spires.
if you get a card like that, there's no bank to give out info either. if anything, get a po box out of state.

Will they not take a personal check? I don't have a TS account. I went with xpressbet. I just opened an account with them and sent them a check to fund it. I didn't like the sound of that greendot thing.

not sure.
it's no biggie tho, when i'm out i get a card and load the account. i'd hate to send a check and the credit union not pay! haven't had an issue with greendot.
now, if TS would take paypal, life would be a bit better.

opened an account with Bovada....i am pretty sure they are legit and no SS card required....the horse bets seem a little hard to navigate, but i am sure i can get used to it.

What happens, if you hit a signer( and I know you will ma'am)? Won't they need accurate information on your address for tax purposes? Maybe not, I guess, if they've got your SSN, then that's all they need.

I have both TS and BetAmerica account in Texas. I called Bet America and as per the conversation, they still accept wagers from Texas residents. Probably wont last long though.

I live 40 miles to Sam Houston Race Park and there is no way I am going to do that drive regularly to make bets.

The chances of that happening are mighty slim. I hardly bet anymore at all and when i do, it's very small amounts. I haven't had a signer in over 10 ys and doubt I would be so lucky in the next 10
