Then on Monday there is a full board of opening day games. It is a special time of year when fathers can call in sick to work, and take their kids, who are playing hooky for the day, to the ball park, and enjoy a lovely spring day, cheering for the home team, and having hot dogs and a box of cracker jacks.

Opening day also is a time for hope, because every team starts the season with a fresh undefeated record. So all the heart ache and disappointment from the year before is erased, and each team has a legitimate chance to build something new and compete for a playoff spot.

In 2014 the Chicago Cubs finished in dead last in their division, then last year they made it to the National League Championship Series. In 2014 the New York Mets were 9 games out of a playoff spot, and then in 2015 they went to the World Series. In 2014 the Houston Astros were 18 games out of a playoff spot, and then in 2015 lost to the eventual World Series Champion Kansas City Royals in the American League Divisional

Series. So who is going to be the surprise teams this year?

One sportsbook that is starting the MLB season off with a Home run deal is AceSportsbook.com. They are offering customers the chance to have a 2/3 Credit Account. So if a player wants a 1k credit limit for the week then they would just need to send in 1/3 of that amount, which would be $333, leaving them with 2/3 extra in credit. There is absolutely no rollover on this offer, and the account gets treated like a local credit account, where the winnings and losses are paid out and collected on each Monday. They also allow smaller losing balances to rollover over to the next week, if that is more convenient for the player.

Another way to look at this unique offer, is that it essentially is a 200% cash bonus with no rollover, with winnings settled each Monday. It is a great way for players to have more of a bank roll, without having to use all of their own money up front. Credit Accounts are extremely hard to find throughout the online sports betting industry, so this is a great opportunity to play on credit with a well established book.

AceSportsbook.com is also one of just a handful of books in the world that actually have their odds listed on Donbest.com, which is the number one lines provider in the industry, which speaks for itself in terms of reputation.
