      Are there any verification checks in Matchbook? Do we need to send them proof of our age?

        For those that wager 3,000 and up, liquidity MAY be a problem.................those are the only posters that should be stating such.

        Look, if say SANTA BARBARA is at -3 -101 and there is only 400 offerred at the number, OF COURSE LIQUIDITY is going to look bad...........but your forgetting some things.

        This game will be -3 -110 at 90% of the other places and if you lay the -3 -101 there will be an offer right behind at -102, BUT THERE MAY BE ANOTHER OFFER AT THE -101 PRICE TO IMMEDIATELY REPLACE YOUR BET...........ONE CAN ALMOST ALWAYS GET DOWN AT LEAST 3,000 ON A CBB GAME AT A BETTER PRICE THEN ANYWHERE ELSE!!

          It's like me telling you to buy AAPL stock every week because I own it and want the price to go up.

          Unless of course they are paying you in which by all means keep up the good work. Gotta pay the bills somehow.

          NOT TRUE, AND THE ONLY REASON I PROMOTE THEM IS THAT I LIKE THE POSTERS HERE, NO OTHER REASON.............

          I POUND THEM DOWN POSTERS THROATS HERE BECAUSE MAYBE AFTER AWHILE THEY MAY ACTUALLY TAKE THE TIME TO INVESTIGATE MATCHBOOK!!

          Being with MB should be a no-brainer for 99.9999% of posters here who make straight bets...............NO BRAINER!

              You will see most that are directly involved with SBR(SBRJOHN, DOZIER, JJGOLD, JUSTIN) be reluctant to say good things about MB(and often be negaitve on them) because .........

              1. THEY DO NOT ADVERTISE HERE

              2. THEY THINK MB COULD BE DAMAGING TO OTHER SBR BOOKS(something that is actually just the opposite) ONCE MANY PLAYERS FIND OUT HOW GREAT MB IS.........with a MB account, even if one has 4 or more other accounts, they will find themselves wagering 90% OF THEIR STRAIGHT BETS AT MATCHBOOK.


              Don't just listen to me, listen to the other posters that play at MB and most will tell you the samething.

                  What's also comical and sad is that posters like ONNER actually believe I'm on the SBR payroll...................


                  Ok, sure...........that's why I promote the hell out of Matchbook and Heritage(to non SBR books)............again, half-ass comical.

                    I like Matchbook for certain things but not others. Problems with Matchbook:

                    1) It's the only book I haven't been able to get to work on any mobile phone. It actually crashed the most recent one I tried, a Palm Pre.
                    2) Their markets on most CBB totals and major soccer leagues are flat out terrible. There have been plenty of times I've had an offer better than Pinnacle on some CBB total, only trying to match maybe $300 or $400, and couldn't match a penny. In those cases, I generally feel like I'm better off just betting at the Greek and paying full juice rather than try to match an offer and have the line move against me while I wait. Same with soccer leagues--there are times I have the best offer out there, better than Pin, Betfair, etc on a major soccer match, like English Premier League, and I get squat.

                    Great out for NBA and baseball, though. I can see why you promote them since the more people that use them, the better your chance of getting offers matched, so try promoting them on the CBB and soccer boards for me!

                        Make no mistake about it, that is nice..........but also, MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT THE MAIN REASON I PROMOTE THEM HERE, AND THAT IS TO HELP POSTERS AT THIS SITE REALIZE WHAT A GREAT BOOK AND MONEY MAKING/SAVING SPORTSBOOK MATCHBOOK IS!!!

                          Fishhead everything you say about Matchbbok is true but everything i have said about exchange shops is true to, Americans (most) will not use them but are much more comfortable with traditional books and do not want to think much when they place wagers. The recreational and whale players will never play there. Matchbook is made up of forum sharps mainly that scalp and middle.

                            What I have put in bold above is certainly true...................question your other statements.

                              I agree fishead. I wonder sometimes if the recreational bettor understands how much they can save laying 1-5 cents instead of 10.

                              Example - $100.00 Player
                              100 Plays Hitting 55% @ 10 Cent Lines
                              55 Winners @ 100.00 = $550.00
                              45 Losers @ .10 = $495.00
                              .10 Lines Cent Profit = $550.00
                              . 5 Lines Cent Profit = $775.00
                              . 1 Cent Lines Profit = $955.00

                              Now lets assume a gambler at SBR averages two player per day over the course of a year and hits 55%
                              394 Winners = $39,400
                              328 Losers
                              .10 Cents = $36,080 Profit = $3,320.00
                              . 5 Cents = $34,440 Profit = $4,960.00
                              .1 Cent = $33,128 Profit = $6,272.00

                                Fishhead, I think you need a tissue; you have some matchbook juice running down you face.

                                  Look at me many say I am sharp here but rather play at traditional type books. I like seeing 1st halves, second halves, reverses, parlays, buy points, etc

                                            lol @ matchbook being such an important book to have

                                            I make more than 99% of the people on this forum and nowhere near matchbook.

                                            I'd prove it only in a prop bet cause I have no use to appease you lame bastards.

                                            As usual Durito knows what he is talking about and the rest of the muffins do not.

                                              Anyone know the rules to matchbook parlays?

                                              Laker -5/ o189.5

                                              If the ending score is 105 to 100. How is this graded? Get half win? Bet cancel? Bet win?

                                              On a side note: MLB action was a bit weak. Did get a little matched, Balt +130, NY(A) +104, Detroit -114

                                                  I would not expect much action on exibition baseball at Matchbook.

                                                  Not sure on your parlay question, as I have not made parlay wagers at MB.

                                                    I cant say that I disagree with Fishead. MB overall has the sharpest lines however my problem from day 1 has been to fund the account.

                                                    I have tried several options and all them seem to fail. Try sending money to them via bank transfer ?? Forget about it..........No shot. Last year I attempted to fund it with 7500.00 at 3 different banks and everytime the money was sent back to me.

                                                    There is a chance that in the last few months they have gotten better with Wire transfers ??

                                                    As with any book and depending on the volume you wager is always best to have a few outs.

                                                        Best way to fund Matchbook is a book to book transfer.
                                                        Either Betjamica or 5dimes they both don't have outgoing fees.

                                                              hope thats not what you meant by liquidity. hahaha

                                                                Matchbook is great for me. People who have problems with volume are probably lacking basic market understanding. I don't feel like educating you but if you use matchbook for a while you will understand the concepts. GL
