To open? No

When you purchase BC from Coinbase they charge a small percentage fee.

So I can open a BC account, take some of my Bovada money and put in there for a small fee and then use Coinbase to deposit in my bank?

Unless they have changed. In order to WD from Bovada by bitcoin, you must have made at least 1 BC deposit.

Once you get setup using BC though, its super easy. From Bovada to my bank account in less the 48 hours.

Thanks, I look into BC.  When you say small % what are we talking about?  Less than 5%

If so how are you getting your money when you want to make a withdrawal?

I had luck with them before bitcoin, they mailed me a check.  and it is even easier now!~

 

Bitcoin in, bitcoin out.    Set up a coinbase account, it is a piece of pie, if you need help, HMU

Just make sure you have the middle man setup - Blockchain.

Coinbase TOS has strict rules about not sending BC to gambling sites and they will shut your account down.

I only need 1 deposit from BC to Bovada to withdraw right?  Once I have that ability I would never deposit using it again, only to withdraw

Yes only 1 BC deposit required. Make sure you click on the bonus section before you do. Most of the time they will have a 50% match offer or better. 

Once you get that first deposit in you're good to do whatever. I have deposited with card after that and then later WD using BC.

If you're operating with such sums I guess it's better to do it through exchangers with decent limits options. My first guess would be BTCBIT.net. The withdrawal speed is only limited by block-chain speed. When it comes to the exchanger- everything is instant.  Probably the best option for you is to send it from there to Bovada in fiat e-currency.

Also you may not want to use Coinbase because of their stance on not taking political stances.  :thumbsdown:

I used "Bodog" back in the day and did well in the poker rooms.... made two withdraws over a year for $1,500 (that was about 10 years ago). They sent the checks to my house. Canadian checks for some reason. However, I only used Bodog ... aka Bovada, for poker and occasionally for horse racing.  

I use a different website for sports betting. Why?  Ugh... Bovada has the worst odds and highest juice in the business.  The lines don't come out until extremely late... sometimes not until an hour for before the game starts. And they offer the fewest betting options.  They're clearly designed to take advantage of low-level gamblers who don't care (or know) about such things.

They pay out, which is why they have an A+ rating at all major sportsbook review sites.  But as far as actual sports betting, they suck wang.
