Maximbet says they are a "sharp sportsbook"

[TheMoneyShot]

What cracks me up about FanDuel and DK.... they thought they would just dominate.... cake walk in a way. They have one of the highest advertising bills ever... next to cell phone companies. All it would take is a company like maximbet to get all the legal documents ready to rock and roll in each state.. and undercut the competition. (IF allowed to do so.) Doesn't take a Harvard Business Education to understand that... keep the advertising low... and give to the players... like offshore has done.

I hope FanDuel/DK go bankrupt. Maximbet will never come to Michigan.... all the other online casinos/books are already in Whitmer's pocket.

Even if Maximbet doesn't go through with this... there will be others that try to undercut the competition.

optional any reason they are not coming to NY? just curious

Apparently no new books can get a license until NY requests applications again.

I have friends that live in the Denver area.... They go to Barstool Sportsbook at Ameristar in Black Hawk ....
Never heard of Maximbet.....

First US book I have seen try to call themselves "sharp".

Can't be a bad thing if they really are trading on lower juice = better.

You must mean outside of Vegas.

Houses in Vegas have been catering too and adjusting to "sharps" for a very long time.

Some will even lay claim to it or "advertise" that they are "sharp".

Yes I did mean outside Vegas when I said that.

It obviously got something to do with the Maxim magazine

Correct.

[jjgold]

Seems like a gimmick type book

All hype and advertising not the way sharps act

[KVB]

Opti I should have some feedback within a week.

They have a structured bonus program, which isn't bad except that each level requires you to bet everything from the deposit and bonus as before. When it comes to managing money that's not great for smaller accounts but if your just trying to fill a position, it can be good.

Basically if you get 1k in over a required 4 separate deposits, $500, $250, $125 and $125 then you get free bets equal to the deposit with 7 days to use the free bet. It's a free bet, so ths stake is not returned in a win.

As far as lines, I'll let you know.

Yeah, monkey business for small amounts of the promotion. They might be scurred to give up the 1k all at once.



Book might be more of a headache than it's worth. At least it won't be my headache...lol.

The problem is 80% of players are only interested in the FanDuel types regardless of anything else

they should have the women i see in the back of the video dance and show us something

[weeminer]

I used them before they rebranded to Maximbet, about 12-18 months ago I think.

Was called sportsbetting previously I believe. Operated about as opposite of a sharp book as you could imagine. Would be very surprised if they were able to change so drastically since then.

I did send them an email about some boosted bet where it was supposed to be something like +200, and they had it +20,000, and the CEO emailed me a nice thank you note. Thought that was nice, and they sent a freebet for like $10, then limited me a week later. lol

another clown book

The link to the lines, no account necessary...

https://co.maximbet.com/sportsbook/

We hve not gotten down much at this book and don't know much about the risk managment but at least you can see the offerings, to compare.

Notice this link above is in colorado specifically, as opposed to the general link for Opti in the OP...

Has anyone in Colorado tried https://maximbet.com/ as yet?...

another clown book

That bonus structrure I described above implies some kind of monkey business, lol, or better put..."caution" from the book.

[washhead]

Looks like Circa is todays' undisputed top dog, big cheese...head honcho.......great book..........

I have to disagree. I don't understand all the love for Circa. I moved to NV about 5 months ago and opened accounts with 6 local shops, including Circa. I almost never use Circa. They rarely offer the best numbers, their prop selection is almost non-existent, and they charge ridiculous fees to fund your account unless you go in person.

They offer high limits? Big deal. If they don't offer numbers I want to bet, what good are high limits? That's like a restaurant saying "The food isn't very good, but it's all you can eat!"

Nice casino, though. No doubt about that. If you're out on Fremont for some reason, Circa's the best place to be.

[KVB]

Washhead, consider Circa for some openers, if you can play that market (openers) without damaging it too much.

It really does depend on time of year and sport, but it can also depend on time of day and day of the week.

But I get it, when shopping during peak times Circa isn't always "the best"

Remember the "top books" (actually all books) have different strengths and weaknesses.

-109/-114 on MLB totals. Gross.

[Judge Crater]

Any sports book dealing any $.25 lines are worthless

Is Maxim dealing increased juice?
I have a mate in Colorado is about to sign up
