To be honest, I am also thinking about that but after reading
this thread, I started doubting and having thoughts of how I am risking so much money in sites so instead I will just bet against my friends and have fun with that. Atleast, I can have some trash talks while I'm at it and have someone to talk to even if I lost or I won.
The the discussion in the site is about safe bets based on its odds, not the risk that you might lose your money in a site. Gambling with your friends will prevent you from paying the juice good for you but I suggest to take a look at the betting odds so you'll have a good idea on which team is favorites and what is the point spread.

Kind of afraid that something might happen again the reason I'm kind of putting a distance to it but thank you for that recommendation though, I will read that.
Sorry but I am not betting on sites, I am just betting with my friend, we bet on each other. If he picks something that I think would win I do some +2 or +3 on the scores. This time there are no additions since he just bluntly told me that Lakers would win. Bit scared at first since they are wearing the Mamba uniform but they still won.
We also did the same here, but just straight up bets, with no plus or minus. Just a friendly bet though, two sets of office mates setup. Just $10 each, unfortunately, I did choose the Lakers side the last time and lost the bet. Yes, that's the main reason why I bet on Lakers because that Mamba jersey hasn't lost when Lakers wore them, unfortunately, Heat won.
And now I'm on the Miami side, Lol, I'm just thinking that they have all the momentum going on Game 6, just my opinion. And if you look at sport bookies the ML is also attractive, so I'm still thinking of I'm going to bet or not.
I guess we are in a different team now though. My friend also thought that Miami Heat could still win this next game and he bet on it. Right now I am betting on LA Lakers and I am kind of confident that this would be the end of this Finals. Good luck with us both though.
Only few more hours left until the game 6!! I said that I believe Miami can make Lakers work and so they did, now I'm saying and hoping that they can take this from Lakers. Davies with injury issues , Dragic coming back for Miami, it can happen. Lets go Heat!!!
Davis can't play well the reason that the bench needed to play well for the team to win. Lebron can't just do all of the things right now and usually, if he focus on doing the points, he can't make good plays the reason he needs Rondo and Caruso for that. KCP, Howard and Kuzma for doing some points and also other players for doing great defense.
