    Bodog is pissing me off...

    Why are they not posting the lines for 49ers - Eagles? I understand why some games are off (i.e. Texans - Rams; Dophins - Titans), but it seems like they do this on purpose on same games.

    Has anyone else experienced this with them? Also, what sites do you guys use or suggest? Thinking about switching or trying something new. BetUs seems like a scam.

    Yes I've experienced this on a weekly basis. Early in the week they posted the Ind vs Jag game at Ind-7 then took if off the board until yesterday morning. Im liking rebatewager as a substitute though.

    Are you guys from the USA? I just like bodog, because the payouts are quick, and they seem to respond to my questions quickly if I have any.

    In the US. Yes.

    Payouts and service are great. But taking games on/off ticks me off.

    Betus seems to have a great first deposit bonus....Thats all I know about them. I will probably stick with Bodog, until they do something that upsets me, then I'll just go with a local guy.

    Edit: They also frustrate me on posting their NBA lines. it sucks that I have to wait til 6 pm to put in bets on them

    I like bookmaker. The lines typically .5 points in favor of the better plus the site seems more organized. However, just like with Bodog they didn't have a lot of games this week. I really would have liked to parlay Tennessee and Houston this week.

    I hate Bodog, they put lines up late and give small limits in the amount you can bet.

    Bodog's late lines Im sure is to make it seem as much as a pick em as they can, they dont want to rush and put up any bad lines, therefore they wait to see where the money is going on other lines.

    BetUs has the worst layout I've ever seen. I've always liked Sportsbook.com but I go thru a bookie now. I do like the Matchups you can check out on Bodog and Sportsbook has something similar with a lot of useful stats. BetUs I think you have to pay like 50 bucks for every withdrawal. Sportsbook you get 1 for free every month. GL.

    Yeah Bodog pisses me off daily with this shit. They take forever to put up lines and it always seems the line you want to bet on take even longer. I mean what kind of ****in book doesnt have lines up for Sunday games till Saturday night/Sunday mourning. There ridiculous with MLs they put them up like the day of games and dont even bother putting them up for half the games. They only offer team over/unders on select games and you have to go into team props to see them. And yes there even worse with the NBA. There lines come out sooo late and again dont bother with MLs on half the games then another quarter of the games have those gay ****in red boxes around them so you cant parlay them. There constantly taking games off the board. You cant buy points on games, only the hook when they selectively decide to offer it. They just simply restrict the hell out of you, its frustrating as hell! Wish i never got into this book cant wait to switch!

    Not necessarily 6pm, but alot of the times, the ML's don't come up til later in the day. I was exaggerating with the 6pm. But it always seems, that I can't put in my bets til around 3 or 4pm. Which makes me mad, if I have something going on after work, and can't put in my bets.

    Thats what I hate, when I can't tease a game because it has the red box around it. And I always see people just buying points on single games. And I've tried figuring it out on Bodog, and I never could. So I always have to do a 2 team teaser, if I want to buy any points. That's what makes me mad. But they are top notch on making withdrawls. Like I just made a 2,000 withdrawl Nov 20th, and the check came in Next day air via FEDex on the 23rd. so that was nice. Then I just requested a payout on Wednesday, and already got the tracking and it should be here on Tuesday. So I can't complain too much. Normally a week to receive a check, and never had a problem cashing it. And it's 1 free withdrawl every Calendar month(if you request another that month it's 40 fee)

    I'm also using Bodog also (cuz i'm a newbie and a friend recommended it to me) but i'm thinking of keeping a small amount of cash in there and then opening up an account on bookmaker. on bodog, nba and nfl have ML only when point spread is between 3 and 10. and during the MLB playoffs the site went down twice a few hours before 2 Yankees game and i was pissed because i couldnt put my bet in (which i woulda won both). i emailed them about that but they said i should have called in my bet. but i've never had any problems with their service or anything like that.

    Yea during the first week of the NFL, I tried getting on and putting a bet in on the Sunday night game, and of course the site was down. I was pissed because I woulda won quite a bit. But I tried getting on 10 minutes prior to kickoff, so the site musta been getting hammered. But they credited me 15 dollars for some reason, they in the message it said "sorry for the site being down last night...."

    I was able to put in bets around 7 in the morning for my teasers, all games were open then.

    How long have you been using it? Did you have to scan and send it a copy of your license and credit card, like most make you do?

    you don't know how true you are - i deposited money wih 3 different cars on the site, and as soon as i started to get some heavy wins, they shut off my account. they said my account was suspended until they would verify if those cards were mine. i have send them all the information they have requested, now they keep on coming up with different excuses and more paperwork that i need to sent it such ask cc statement... wtf?

    I know what you mean, but I've been using them and there payouts are very good and the people that work there are really friendly and will help you if you have any problems. I don't bet too much on sports, but I am looking to open another book, just so I have options on different lines.
