Petition to Downgrade Bodog to a B+

[MarlinsFan2212]

Seriously, enough is enough.

They cut in half the amount of comp I received once your total wagers for a comp period reach 100,000. This last comp period I had a handle of 175,000 and was up 235 dollars.

I check my comp this morning, and its 87.50.

Every time my handles been under 100,000 I receive 1 dollar to 1000 payout, regardless of win or lose.
So if I bet 5000, I receive 5 dollars
When I bet 36,000 I received 36
84,000, received 84

Today I receive .50 cents per 1000.

They are cutting the comp of higher bettors, and keeping the money for their own benefit. Not something an A+ book would do. (87 isnt a lot, but if they do it to 100 people its 8700.)

I only listed a few sessions but I assure you I am basing it off of about 40 comp periods and its ridiculous.

[ngates815]

I like them because they payout bettors.

I don't really care about online casinos and I don't look at how they "comp" your casino betting.

When I look for a book, I look to see if they payout and if it's easy to deposit with them. Bodog doesn't have the greatest lines and don't ever have them up early, but they are still good.

A book. Would be A+ if they had lines up at earlier times or more betting options.

[FuzzyDunlop]

I think you should start another thread about how much you hate Bodog.

[do5000]

are they that bad?

[zam77]

ngates hit the nail on the head... I would put them at B+ regardless of op's post though. Not that I have accounts at all of them, but I don't see how any offshore book can honestly have an A+ rating... there's always room for improvement.

[Onefreedm1nd]

Got my vote for the lines they offer

[MarlinsFan2212]

Payout= Not a Problem
Deposit Options= Not a Problem

Assholes= Yes
Assholes= Yes

Most people on here are sports bettors, and laugh at someone who plays casino as much as me. However, when you bet over 100,000 in a 3 day period almost every other comp period, I think its fair they give you an identical payout percentage wise.

This is over 1000 dollars now that should be mine. How can you justify giving half of what you give people with lower betting amounts, when you say all comps are calculated the same way?


Maybe an A + Book, but definitely a D+ Casino.

[DrunkHorseplayer]

They probably cut your comps because you're ahead; Bodog is a sub-standard book if one knows what one is doing.

[ngates815]

Why not just play at a different online casino?

[LegitBet]

You really should be playing at the easystreet.com casino.
You'll get bonuses, freeplays, major comp points, and if you really get lucky the trifecta: A free trip to Costa Rico, where you'll be treated to a polygraph, a chance to sit in front of a computer and 'gamble' for five hours straight, and finally a really nice fully comped beating!

[RollPlayer]

They have easy deposit options and easier payouts. That's an A+ compared to other books out there

[MarlinsFan2212]

Why not just play at a different online casino?

Because of their poker. Best Poker room on a Sportsbook, just based on the volume of it. If I sit down at 2/4 or 3/6 and lose 400-600 dollars, thats only 3-6 bets I need to win in the casino, and while I lose sometimes, generally it is easy to win it back quickly. Im not a great poker player by any means, but when its almost like a free buy-in, its a lot easier to play.

I cant play on BetJam or The Greek because im only 20. Bookmaker IMO has a better casino and sportsbook, but its poker room is awful. Its 3D poker is the worst software around. Same with its sister book Diamond. I actually prefer them because you can fast Play on DGS casinos. On Bodog they use RTG, so to accumulate 100,000 in handle, it takes atleast 3-4 hours of consistent 100-200 bets.

Also I can still run my CC on Bodog if I need too. I dont know why it still works, but it does, and its more convenient than any other method.

[jstblaze]

You are an online casino Pro....

I didnt know those existed!

And free payouts on Tuesdays.

[doublej95]

Easy to deposit at and they pay out. That's enough to keep them above a B+ rating. There will never be a book that can make everyone happy.

Justbet and BetOnline are B+ books. Ive played on both, and aside from Poker, Bodog does nothing better than either book IMO.

[No coincidences]

B+ is being generous.

It's a C book. Period. Gets the A because it advertises here. Their delinquent lines are unacceptable and inexplainable.

[No coincidences]

I've never understood the "they don't post lines early but oh well" mentality. You do realize that the entire point of sports betting is to beat the closing number, correct?

well when they offer better dog prices after the market has shaped the line its reallly not to hard to beat the number there sharp guy

Actually, they don't.

I have accounts at six different books. SIA is the best book for dogs. Bodog's "better dog prices" is a myth.

Do you honestly think beating the closer is all about taking dogs anyway? Wow.

yes they do it is a fact .

and no its not about dog prices when did i say that?
I just said that bodog offers better dog prices

if they offered better fav prices I would have said that

they dont offer better dog prices every game
they dont always offer the best dog prices

you clearly don't know what you are talking about so I guess dynamite is right about you
go make another NBA thread

[rfr3sh]

Look at the washington/mets game yesterday

who had the best price for american bettors ?

It's a "fact"? Then I suppose you can back that up with some kind of link, right? I have accounts at bodog, SIA and others. It is not the best book for playing dogs, and you can't consistently beat the closing number playing there because of their delinquent lines.

You said "well when they offer better dog prices after the market has shaped the line its reallly not to hard to beat the number there sharp guy" -- that makes zero sense.

Now go get your ass kicked by a bookie again on tilt, you wanna-be greaser.

SIA closed at Mets -160. Bodog at -154.

Anything else?

[HoulihansTX]

Where's BlowJobBecky?

[cloudagh]

Bodog has some unusual quirks that keep them from being an A book. For example, they don't allow Canadians (so they say) to play in USD. This has kept me from signing up with them. Now this would seem no real challenge for them to fix, but they are unwilling to do it. This situation is no problem for an A book to overcome.

[rfr3sh]

bodog had the best dog line for american bettors

+139

wow you really are dumb

[tkim8404]

It's good to know they have reliable payouts and easy options.

[Foosball Champ]

Bodog gets no love from me. Can't make a bet on their site, have to call them and get put on hold for 5 minutes before I can actually make a bet. Shitbook.

[Ralphie Halves]

Bodog has their flaws, but to make such a downgrade because of their comp program for enormous online casino players got shaved down a bit is a little over the top. Still my favorite book for dogs, even with the occasional moment.

I use both books. Do you? There are plenty of times SIA has a better dog number than Bodog.

If you can't get overnight lines, you can't beat the closing number. Bodog only does this because they don't want pros playing there; they know recreational gamblers are content with getting whatever number they get at 5 p.m. when they get off work, and that's who they want pumping money into their site.

Now go kiss your bookie for me.

[mtneer1212]

Downgrade based on what? You deposit, you get paid on time if you win. Fund Security is the numero uno item on a rating. Downgrading them because of a change in their 'comp' system or because you don't like the lines is no excuse. You should have multiple outs anyway, and betting the best number on a game, which many times is Bodog, especially if you like a dog.

[thespeculator]

this ain't 2004 , why do you need bodog, i understand back in the day they paid out in minutes in large amounts, but times have changed ,
