The difference between betting at a brick-and-mortar sportsbook and betting on your mobile device or computer is minimal, especially considering the same companies operate both. At a sportsbook, you will wait in line to make your bet — with a human teller or at an automated kiosk — and pay using cash, receiving a paper ticket documenting your wager.
With online betting, you can wager anywhere it’s legal and fund your account using a credit card or an online money transfer.
One other difference: Live betting — wagering on a game after it has started — is much easier online.
