    Isn't Bodog A Must Have Book?
    As much crap as I hear about them, their lines are ALWAYS a half point to a FULL point higher than all other books...if you want a dog in any given game, you can get the best line at bodog...i can't be the only one who knows this...anyone else using this strategy?

    I have been under the impression that Bodog has had trouble with slow payouts the last year.

        i realize the that has been talked, and even if you get a slow payout, if you can clip these good lines, why not have it as an option

          Their lines are nothing compared to SIA, especially once you get their "sharp" lines. Then you also have the issue of having your limits cut to miniscule levels if you have a clue.

                Bodog is an A+ book, a must have out and they have debit card payouts.

                  you idiots obviously don't understand the thread...I AM NOT ENDORSING BODOG HERE!!!!!!! here, let me put it in terms a f$cking 5 year old can understand since all of you just want to jump down someones throat right off the bat....

                  here we go, try to follow...bodog, has higher lines than most other books, if you want a dog at, lets say +5 at the book you normally like..why not get it at +6 at bodog...and if it is the limits that bother you..since EVERYONE on SBR is a high roller like yourself...bet the game at your normal book at +5 AND bet it at bodog at your "limit" at +6...what could that possibly hurt, you arrogant prick? you obv. are a dumbass, i don't know why i bother...go lose your money wherever you want

                      They aren't a must have book. Their payouts are running roughly about 2 weeks for checks at this time, so that's acceptable in today's offshore gaming era (sad but true). Like it was mentioned above by Donjuan, IF you get stuck with the dual line feature they have admitted to using a long time ago. Then they are virtually useless if and when that happens to players.

                        Not that good down 2 units to my opponent. But I got the Knicks +2 and Bucks under 206 and they're looking good so far. I hit both and its even steven.

                          Yeah, that's the problem. The first rule I have when dealing with any book is

                          1.Get paid with minimal delay and complications.

                          2.Be able to get down on the games with minimal problems and decent limits.

                          Both are not givens at Bodog.

                          If you can get the extra point anywhere without problems, it is definitely a no-brainer must-have book, but in the real world that is usually a red-flag for underlying problems for the bettor (since I am the bettor, I look at it from the bettor's position), like dual lines or a poorly run book that will have payout problems.

                            they take forever to pay, if you go over certain limits they change the lines dramatically. bodog is horrid

                            bookmaker is the fastest payout and least trouble ive ever seen

                                  Bodog is good for your dog plays. They are very late getting thier lines out and not sure about their payouts. I have a little money left there from the fall and not sure if I will reload.

                                    So the last time you got a payout from Bodog was in June?

                                      So by saying "isn't Bodog a must have book?" and then vociferously defending them you aren't endorsing them?

                                      here we go, try to follow...bodog, has higher lines than most other books, if you want a dog at, lets say +5 at the book you normally like..why not get it at +6 at bodog...and if it is the limits that bother you..since EVERYONE on SBR is a high roller like yourself...bet the game at your normal book at +5 AND bet it at bodog at your "limit" at +6...what could that possibly hurt, you arrogant prick? you obv. are a dumbass, i don't know why i bother...go lose your money wherever you want
                                      Yes, I covered this. SIA has far better off market lines. And I would consider $100 limits on almost everything that they have cut me to (less on props) to be absurdly low.

                                        You're the idiot. Try to follow -- Once Bodog starts dealing you dual lines (again, it will happen if you have a clue), you no longer get "higher lines" which, on top of their propensity to cut your limits, makes them useless in most instances.
