They closed my acct. years ago because I live in Maryland.
Not a surprise to me though. I always felt they were a shortstop race book.
What you just said is further proof.
I do miss them playing sports. If you play dogs, they give generous lines.
I always enjoyed that.
Good luck Slew.

Makes no sense to not offer DDs, they would lose more on big payouts with tris and supers.

Bovada real risk averse shop. Would recommed Heritgae. Much better shop imo.

Your right but they seem to avoid the potential higher payouts.

Easy mentioned Heritage. I played there a bit and it seemed fine. Never played at 5Dimes but have heard some good things about them.

Hope you land in a good spot. My best advice if you don't mind is to use an A or A+ book , which I am pretty sure you know from your years here. The game is tough enough without having to deal with no pay or slow pay.
Good luck Slew !

I've been using Bookmaker for the most part, but will look elsewhere on Bovada moving forward. The new site is terrible anyways, their old horse site was very easy to navigate.

I forgot to mention them. I was able to do a book to book transfer from Bookmaker to Heritage and vice versa several years ago. Maybe it is still in play if you are interested. Thought I would let you know.

I contacted Bovada about the missing Daily Doubles and Pick 3s, and they said they were working on adding them back since the upgrade.

Noticed today they are now offering those wagers again.

5dimes is the best book for horseracing. They offered all the P4's, P5's and P6's along with all the exotics. I loved to play the P4's and P5's because they offerd a $.25 minimum. Now getting paid by 5dimes is the problem and why I don't do business with them anymore.

Betonline is my go to book for pic 4 and 5 with fifty cent min base and high net profit per race on major tracks and secondary ones....I like Looselines for wps and doubles plus you can parlay up to 4 races they Offer the best selection of tracks including harness, uk and Australia plus greyhounds. Heritage I too but they do not offer pic 4
