Hollywood Sportsbook

I use Hollywood.

They have two different sign-up deals and it's the player's choice which they take. Sounds like you signed up for the Star Treatment Loyalty Program. With that one you get extra bonuses but -110.

With the other traditional Hollywood deal you get more modest bonuses and the -107.

SBRlines is feeding from the traditional lines.

Thanks Mudcat. It is usually operator-error on my part and that's what the deal is on Hollywood too. I did take a bigger bonus upon signup. That's why. Thanks for shedding the light.

I took the -107 plan when I signed up there a couple years ago. Don't use it much, but there are some decent ML's (in comparison to Pinny), but I don't even have funds in there at the moment.

I signed up with them but didn't deposit...supposedly you get a free polo shirt if you deposit $500 or more.

Does anyone have one...are they nice?

Mudcat · 09-17-05, 10:51 AM

I don't have one but just bear in mind ( get it? BEAR in mind? HAHAHAHAHA!! sorry) that it is part of the Star Treatment deal so you would get the -110 lines.

I deposited $1000 on my initial deposit and they never offered me one (and I remember seeing it on the site), but I'm not really huge on wearing random shirts. I'm sure you'll get one if you ask...

If I get one...do you think it is a good idea to wear it when I am teaching...or would that send the wrong message

Hell, maybe you can get referral bonuses from your student sign-ups. I can't see how anyone would have a problem with that.

Can you switch to -107 later on?? You must be able to. I took 107 at IIS when they were offering -105 because it was worth more. After i rolled the bonus i went down to -105. oh yea!

Go Cats!

never got my shirt...

I just spoke to Hollywood and the answer is no, you can't switch to the -107 lines after you have signed up for the Star Treatment program.

So I would say people need to decide carefully up front what is going to suit them best in the long term.

Hollywood is one of most underrated boks in the world

Im sure thats what they are told to say but I would be surprised to hear that someone with a zero balance was denied the 107 if he offered to re-up.

I remember when they came out with that. I swtiched right away.

I dunno. I couldn't get BJ on the phone but the guy that told me that seemed authoritative and convincing.

But you could be right.
