If you don’t follow sports but are interested in gambling or you are interested in gambling but do not follow sports, centsports.com may be the site for you. Centsports allows inexperienced or aspiring sport gamblers to test the waters before deciding to actually risk losing money. The catch is that while you can’t lose money, you can actually make money.
Funded by the site’s sponsors, centsports gives each user 10 cents to start out with and bet however they choose. If successful, users can continue to accumulate money. If they ever gain over $20.00, they can cash out and pocket the earnings. If they lose all of the money, they start all over again with 10 cents.
The obvious benefit is that there is no risk involved. Obviously though, it is very difficult to ever actually make money through the site. To reap profits, one must use their own money on other online gambling sites. The most important benefit is that it shows prospective gamblers just how difficult it is to bet on sports and serves as a caution to many users.
