Don't get me wrong, prices are very good at BOL, but sometimes they shade sides in the line and take more juice for it.

For example, instead of -105 or even -108 you might see -110 to -120. With bigger numbers they can increase there hold a little bit.

Sometimes, that's when you can strike and take advantage of underdog prices being just a little tastier than elsewhere, they jump their price to another level so the decrease caused by the hold is overcome when compared to the market.

BOL books like that, sometimes, in my opinion making them good for dogs.

They probably tighten quick but you would be better to tell as your adjusted a bit to those markets, definitely more than me.

I don't even think you need an account to see lines and the main book page opens with some soccer...

He's probably picked up a dog or two there, but compared to Pinny they probably do suck.

For example today

Istra 1961+ 1456 at bookmaker

KVB · 07-11-20, 03:32 PM

Thanks for the info. I was thinking of giving them a try but it looks like they are thieves in dog lines.

pologq · 07-11-20, 07:12 PM

BOL great for betting early and getting the line you want

They are good if you want early lines and quick payout. They pay lightning fast. Also to be fair if you like favorites they give good lines.

lakerboy · 07-12-20, 12:31 PM

I've said this many times. No one listens. This is a major event that they have locked on and off the last few hours.

They had two swedish games that NEVER appeared on the board from the top league as well.

Yea I mostly only use them for ncaa and the spread sports. Their mlb lines were never great and 5d has best baseball options by far to me. So I didn’t have anything there when I started soccer cause I typically wouldn’t be there in summer for bases. If LB says their soccer sucks I’m sure it true.

Agreed, like I said, I haven't been immeresed in those markets at all, I don't what BOL has exaclty but I knew overall it's been tough to beat Pinny for soccer.

Seems that's pretty consistent.

Only use BTC there or another crypto and you will be fine with lightning fast payouts. 2 a week

Just started with BO. Seems like its going to be a short marriage?

A. I'm 53 and don't know wtf bitcoin is? $50 charges for a check

B. I just placed a bet online for 4.5 Over -135. Line goes to -145. I click. Then -155. I click. They give me 5.5 -155??? I call to complain, figuring they will void the bet. Its only $108. They say all bets are final. I never wanted 5.5 and even if I did....the line goes up and the juice goes down. Thats how it always works?

No, that's not how it always works. You must have happened to be betting a line just as it was being hammered by other bettors, which was driving the line away from your favor. But the site didn't force you to take 5.5. You must not have realize it had changed to 5.5 before you clicked submit the final time. It happens to all of us occasionally. It sucks, but it can happen at any book.

As for Bitcoin, I understand you're not used to it. But if you do learn it, you'll have a much smoother experience at all of the modern online sportsbooks. The books are pushing customers towards bitcoin and away from other forms of payment. Honestly, it's a lot better for the player too. You'll never have any problems between the book and your bank, transactions are lightning fast, and cheap.

Good luck at the new book Hman

I never cared for BetOnline personally

Always felt like it was kinda like PF Changs. Pay more for less.

caramba · 07-14-20, 09:18 AM

I was anti BTC for the longest time, but sometimes you just have to get with the times.

Thanks for pointing that out.

So two free per week, not one, correct?

I've used bitcoin only there and never been asked for id. Probably if you use other way to deposit they will.

They sometimes will. No way of knowing until they do.

JoeCool20 · 07-15-20, 12:25 AM

BOL doesnt ask for a bunch of ID crap on payouts if you use Bt coin do they? I'm looking for a place for a friend

of mine. But he would never do that "send a copy of a bill and a picture ID" crap. He's too new at it

and it would scare him.

Foosball Champ · 07-15-20, 12:57 AM

i haven't been able to use the racebook in 6 years. no sure if its a technical issue or i have been booted. cant get a clear answer. yeah their customer service sucks.

Send bitcoin, request bitcoin payout then no questions asked.

You cannot tell someone that with certainty. BOL reserves the right to ask anyone, no matter the method, and they sometimes do ask with bitcoin. You can say it's less frequent/likely. But JoeCool20 just said his friend would NEVER do that, so he should be aware that it's possible.

I've been using their new beta site for the past week or so and I like it so far. Don't see any issues with it over the old version, yet. The new site is waaaaay better for mobile than the old one.

Ok
Fair

However I joined based upon threads and Optional’s recommendations.

The bitcoin bonuses.

I never once had to give any info and that’s with a new sign up getting payouts..

So I can only say from my first hand experience.

I will also add same deal with Betnow no ID required and I didn’t even fund via bitcoin but got paid via bitcoin in hours.

So that’s my experience.

Either way both are good except customer service during these times are almost non existence.

Lol

And I have first-hand and second-had experience which says otherwise. Sometimes, they will indeed verify bitcoin accounts.

Don’t scare the guy away from a good book

mrpapageorgio · 07-15-20, 04:44 PM

Never had an issue with BOL. Only time I was asked to verify with an ID for Bitcoin was with Heritage when I request a withdrawal. My hypothesis was the withdrawal came after I banged them on a back to back 4-leg parlay (I also noticed my limits got cut a bit) to make sure I wasn't a sharp multi-accounting.

themike78 · 07-15-20, 05:16 PM

From my experience with pretty much every book I've used I've never been asked for i.d with bitcoin. If using a card to deposit get ready to send them 27 different forms of i.d and all kinds of pictures.
