OH THE PLACES YOU'LL GO...
We, along with a ton of college basketball teams around the country, will be glued to the TV on Sunday to see just where everyone's going to end up, who will take the top seeds, and who will play who when tournament action begins. The conference tournaments (Beginning Wednesday) will answer a lot of questions, but there are going to be some surprises when Sunday rolls around too.
Here are a few questions we can't wait to see answered, this week and beyond:
Q: What's up with Duke?
A: We have NO IDEA. Is J.J. Redick tanking? Until the last two weeks, he hadn't put up less that 50% from the field in two consecutive games all season. Now he's hit under 40% in four straight. J.J.'s a clutch player though, and we expect to see Duke in the Final Four, and at very least in the Elite Eight.
Q: Tyler Hansbrough? Who is this guy?!
A: Hansbrough, the freshman center for UNC, is the GUY TO WATCH this tournament. If North Carolina goes deep this season, it's going to be because they're riding his back all the way.
Q: J.J. Redick or Adam Morrison for Player of the Year??
A: We told you last week. We have no idea. Our vote? Both of them. Too close to call.
Get in the Game with GoSportsBet, with lines on all the action this week during the CONFERENCE TOURNAMENTS!

This Week: Hansel Wei on Online Security. Read the whole article in Hansel's Zone at GoSportsBet.
If you’re even slightly worried about your online security, you’re certainly not
alone. One of the greatest fears in this young century has to be identity theft or other
circumstances of online fraud. I remember when I signed up for Ebay and reluctantly put
in my credit card number for PayPal. I was almost certain that there were going to be
dozens of “Hansels” running around using credit cards with my name and information on
them in no time.
Luckily no such thing happened. However, as a sports bettor, you owe it to
yourself to be aware of what security measures a sportsbook has in place to protect you
from such situations. Every sportsbook you even consider using should have a section
devoted to Privacy or Security, explaining what they do to keep you and your information
safe. (See the “Privacy” section on GoSportsbet.com.) The current industry encryption
standard is the SSL Protocol, a 128-bit encryption that ensures both you and the
sportsbook are authenticated during every transaction through encrypted algorithms.
Make sure the sportsbook accepts some standard secure methods of payment. These
include Visa, Mastercard, Bank Wire, Electronic Checks, Firepay, and Neteller.
GoSportsBet shows they make security a top priority by accepting these and more.
Here’s why you shouldn’t lose sleep over your credit card number being online:
sportsbooks have a lot more to lose than you do. If someone has the technology to hack
the SSL protocol (doubtful) and access your information, then they can access the same
information for the sportsbook! Why drain your account when an entire sportsbook’s
account is there for the taking? The sportsbooks trust their security, and so should you.
In general though, it is a good policy to question these things and create
contingency plans. I recommend opening a new bank account specifically for online
transactions, including online shopping, sports wagering, or any other instance you need
to give a credit card number online. Although I stress that it...

This Week: Red Dog
Red Dog is a true game of chance. Once an initial bet
is placed the dealer lays out two cards. At this point,
you have the choice to double the bet or stand. Your task
is to draw a card whose value falls between the dealer's
two cards. The payouts are higher depending on the numerical
difference between the two exposed cards. The payouts
are based on the following table:
Pay Outs Based on the Difference in Values of Exposed Cards
Possible Cards Payout
1 (e.g. 5,7) 5:1
2 (e.g. 5,8) 4:1
3 (e.g. 5,9) 2:1
4 to 11 1:1
Consecutive (e.g. J, Q) Push
Pair (e.g. 7,7) Push
Three of a Kind 11:1
Note: Aces are always high.
If the value of the third card falls outside the range of the first two, or is equal to one of the exposed cards, you lose. If the two exposed cards are consecutive, all bets are pushed back. If the two exposed cards are equal in value, you will not have the option to raise the bet. An additional card is automatically drawn. If the third card completes a "three of a kind", you receive an 11:1 payout! If you do not achieve a three of a kind your bet is pushed back.
