They don't want to move off key numbers, so they are adjusting odds to try to even out money on both sides.

If that were the case wouldn't they of just made the chiefs line -10 -130 instead of -9 -115?

Bodog - Only use if you bet underdogs.

I'm starting to agree with you. I think I'll just cash out my winnings and move to another source. This is horse shit.

you cannot use bodog exclusively for football, you need another place. i don't use them but i always look at their lines to see where the square money is.

hubie69 · 10-25-10, 10:49 AM

i've been using them because I already had money in there....and anymore it's a huge pain in the ass to get money into books from the US...maybe I cash out and move to vegas..

They've been doing this for years. It gets worse in the playoffs. Haven't played NFL there in years.

PORKCHOP44 · 10-25-10, 11:56 AM

My local uses there line's and they are square as can be, lucky don't have to pay that juice

When you ban/limit all of your sharp players, you end up with extremely lob-sided bets every week. When the squares/public go on a tear, Bodog gets crushed like a mofo because they banned all the players that actually go against the public. Dumba$$e$.

I didn't hear about this, what happened?

Worked out for me last night getting GB -3 at +105

Bodog is a crap book. Not a place for the serious online gambler, always doing stupid shit, put lines up late, just pure scammish. Bottom lone, they don't want you to have any kind of edge whatsoever, no need to bet there.

I'm just complaining on generalities... basically they offer different lines to different people. You could log in and get one line while someone else who logs in will get another. Shady stuff.

Anywhere from 3 to 9 point spread only. If you want to bet a +10 point underdog Money Line, you're screwed. And they only post ML's for half the games at 3 points. Never seen an ML on a 2.5 point or lower game. Complete and total Bullshit.

Bodog can be good for dogs and props. Definitely a good option to have, but horrible if you solely rely on it as your only book.

I wouldn't go that far. There are opportunities (like others have said) to pick off underdogs at a good price, they pay, and have a very nice layout and juicy low limit poker games. Are they shady at times?... Hell yeah, just like every offshore book is.

They also pulled the carolina/sf game ml's off about an hour before kickoff and they didnt have moneylines posted for sd/ne.
