Naturally, the NHL gets a ton of bets. Canadian football and European soccer are also popular as a product of the respectable sports variety Quebec offer in its betting setups.<\/p>\n<h3>Quebec\u2019s featured option: MISE-O-JEU<\/h3>\n<p>Mise-O-Jeu is the top dog for sports betting in Quebec. Compared to other provincial operations like PlayNow in BC, Mise-O-Jeu does look superior. It\u2019s far glossier, newer, and it offers odds for more sports. Players can bet on hockey, baseball, basketball (shock and awe!), soccer, golf, tennis, football, boxing and even MMA. Following the lead of offshore gambling sites, Mise-O-Jeu even offers expert articles with tips for betting on various sports. It also doesn\u2019t force you to provide lots of detailed financial information the way other provinces do.<\/p>\n<p>Mise-O-Jeu at least deserves credit for paying attention to what makes offshore gambling sites great and trying to mimic it. But the operative word is \u201ctrying.\u201d On the surface, Mise-O-Jeu may appear to offer a good gambling experience, but it\u2019s smoke and mirrors.<\/p>\n<p>The truth is that most of the nuts and bolts have the same limitations as other Crown gambling operations. Your betting options are slightly better than some of the other provinces\u2019 but still limited to match winners (money lines), match winners with spreads (spread bets), totals and opposing player props.<\/p>\n<h3>Why CappersPicks Canada-approved sportsbooks are better<\/h3>\n<p>Mise-O-Jeu might offer the best provincial gaming experience in Canada but it still pales in comparison to what offshore books let you do. How? [ad-4437448] <\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Offshore winnings aren\u2019t susceptible to tax.<\/strong> A win on an offshore bet is instantly worth more than a win via Mise-o-Jeu. It\u2019s the same as other provincial betting operations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Offshore books have much lower juice.<\/strong> Mise-O-Jeu is absolutely brutal on juice or vig, often operating at the double the typical offshore mark. It forces you to make at least two selections and as many as eight selections per bet, drastically lowering your odds. Not allowing straight bets hugely magnifies the juice problem. Quebec makes a killing. Parlays are fun in theory but your odds are winning on them are simply poor.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Far more betting options.<\/strong> Mise-O-Jeu has a decent variety of sports and betting options \u2013 but only compared to other provincial gambling operations. It still has nowhere near the options you get at an offshore book like Bookmaker or BetOnline. The gap between the provinces and the offshore books is laughable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. The customer service is on a higher level. <\/strong>This is especially true when comparing offshore online books to Quebec. Whereas Loto Quebec has done a nice job creating a good-looking gambling experience, its customer service is at the back of the pack.<\/p>\n<p>Mise-O-Jeu only offers customer support during standard, slacker government hours: 9 to 4. Worse yet, it offers no bonuses whatsoever. It doesn\u2019t even pretend to care about its players!<\/p>\n<p>In Ontario? &#8211; We Review <a href=\"\/blog\/sportsbooks\/online-betting-on-sports-in-ontario-canada-5811\/\" title=\"ProLine\"><strong>ProLine<\/strong><\/a> (proline.olg.ca)<br \/>\nIn BC? &#8211; We Review <a href=\"\/blog\/sportsbooks\/gambling-on-sports-in-bc-canada-online-8411\/\" title=\"PlayNow\"><strong>PlayNow<\/strong><\/a> (PlayNow.com)<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"\/sportsbooks\/online-accepting-canadian-players-and-gamblers\/\">WAGER AT OUR BEST FOOTBALL BETTING SPORTSBOOKS FOR ALL THE NFL SEASON GAMES \u2013 REVIEWS OF ALL 2011 SPORTSBOOKS TAKING CREDIT CARD DEPOSITS (click here)<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shea Matthews weighs in with his insider gambling info for residents of Quebec Canada.
