Sweetie- How much you want to bet on that?

If I'm wrong then take it up with mansion because their T&Cs are inaccurate.

Let's bet then. You need a gambling 101 class if you can't understand what's happening.

TLD...absolutely agree with you on Matchbook's bizarre policy of charging 2% to put up a bet...if they want their exchange to flouish they should figure out how to subsidize people who assume the risk of having a number change on them.

Also confirmed that Mansion does not charge bet layers. I just had one accepted the other day and double checked and there was no fee.

I'm excited about using these guys for next football season...

does anyone think mansion will ever allow you to move the line along with the juice? (unlike matchbook, but more like pinnacle's drop-down box)...any thoughts on this...changing the juice is great, but pinnacle is still the best because of the drop down box (and many other things as well)...

pags...I see it's been two months since you started asking about these guys...have you started playing there? What's it been like?

bookie,

mansion has worked it's way up to one of my top 3 books...I love knowing that the most I'll ever have to pay for a wager is -105...I had to familiarize myself with the software a little...also had to email them an ID, which I don't usually like doing (but they are a legit book)...they've got overnight lines which I like...free payouts...and good CS (have recently added an 800 number)...these guys are awesome (and I say this knowing I'll get no referral bonuses whatsoever, 'cause they don't offer any)...

bumping this one as well...

Anyone rereading this thread should note that there have been changes in the comission policy.

Mansion now charges 0.5% commission on winning bets for SELLERS.

Mansion charges NO commission for BUYERS.

good point Mr. X...and regular wagers made at the exchange are now -107...
