Dear Mr. xxxxxxx
Thank you for contacting Bodog Customer Service regarding our College
Hoops lines. These lines will be posted and hour before game time.
We post lines late on purpose. The earlier a line is posted, the more
it moves, and the more it moves, the more risk for the House as well as
an increase in professional/syndicate wagering. By posting lines later
than other sportsbooks, we reduce risk and also cut down on syndicate
wagering, both of which strengthen our bottom line and allow us to
safely offer the bonuses that we do.
We realize that this costs us some business, but as 90%+ of football
action comes in the 48 hours before kickoff and over 75% of
baseball/basketball betting in the last couple of hours before a game
starts, we feel the tradeoff is a good one. We readily admit that if
getting early lines is a key factor in a bettor's choice of a book,
there are a lot of better spots out there. However, if you want a
reliable shop with great Customer Service and an aggressive bonus
offer, we are the book for you.
If you require any further assistance, please do not hesitate to
contact us.
Regards,
Customer Service
