so pennsylvania has legal online casinos now (fanduel, draftkings, betmgm etc) but everyone i know still uses offshore sites
the legal ones are supposed to be "safe" but they have way higher taxes which means worse rtps, plus limited game selection cause not all providers have PA licenses
as aresult sites like bovada or ignition have better games, better bonuses, and actually pay out faster from what i've seen
is there any actual reason to use PA licensed sites besides "its legal"? cause legally dont really give a shit if the experience is worse
 
yea tax thing is real dude. PA has insane tax rates on operators which definitely affects what they can offer players. think its like 34% on slots which is insane. offshore sites don't pay those taxes so can have better rtps and bigger bonuses
personally i use both depending on mood. borgata (mgm) for peace of mind, bovada when i want better value
 
whaa you mean legal PA sites actually have lower rtps?? thought that was just conspiracy theory shit are you saying like starburst pays less on fanduel than on offshore site?
 
Not necessarily lower RTP on same game, but operators may negotiate lower RTP versions with providers to offset tax burden.
For example, some slots have multiple RTP settings (94%, 96%, 98%). Legal PA casino might choose 94% version while offshore runs 96% version. Both are "legitimate" settings from provider. Pennsylvania's 34% tax on gaming revenue is among highest in US. This forces operators to optimize costs, and RTP is one lever they can adjust.
 
yeah yeah legal sites are trash anyway
used draftkings for few months and games felt dead, bonuses were joke, withdrawal took 3 days even though they claim those "fast payouts"
switched to bovada and its night and day. hit 5k on gates of olympus, had it in bitcoin in under an hour. that would take foreva on draftkings
