    Blowdog is for suckers that feel like being abused by their book. Late lines and bounced cheques plus many other problems

    I do not know how you can think BODOG is a good book, compared to other options. They post their lines late, can't buy points, and put games in red boxes that they are concerned about. When they red box a line they limit action, and prevent parlays. The site may look flashy, but they give the player no advantages. I used to use them a couple of years ago, so things might have changed. However, they will never get a dime from me again. In addition, they are leaving the US market at the end of the year.

    Bodog is a good book anyone that thinks other is just dumb and doesn't know anything. Whoever uses 1 book is just as dumb as anyone who thinks Bodog is not a good book, i hope this helps. Dude get your facts straight also, they are not pulling from U.S. just name change.

    SBR reviews are based on the following:

    Financial Rating
    Customer Service
    Software Rating
    Bonus Rating

    They deal dual lines, deal one sided prop action, and have had numerous complaints that they never address in a timely manner. They have a CS rep who posts to all the forums and will reply within hours if you ask about depositing, but when they make big screw ups, like the recent casino example where the software dealt the guy a blackjack and told him he had 17, they didn't respond for weeks, and when they finally did respond they called it a "minor software error." Right, calling an Ace and a King a 17 is "minor."

    Okay, fool, why don't you tell us why think Bodog is a good book. Saying it is a good book with no rationale is hogwash.

    I just went to the Bodog site and logged in. There are no week 1 NFL lines up, no WNBA totals up, half of tomorrow's college lines not on the board. In addition, no money lines on the board for tomorrow's action. For those who like to get in early before the line moves, it sucks. They may have good finances, bonus structure etc, but they give the player no advantages. With the advantage bulit in for the house as it is, that is unnacceptable in my book.

    Most complaints about Bodog are from sharps who were either severely limited there or upset about the dual line sets.

    Really no advantages, if u can't figure out the advantages of this book then who is the fool u or me. If u think it sucks then don't use them but whenever i use them or place a wager its always in my favor or best interest. Go back and read my posts in this thread u will see that i specifically said that i don't only use Bodog to place wagers i use many but Bodog definitely comes in handy when i do and i know that i never ever have to worry about getting paid from them. Do u still think im a fool for understanding how to use them to my advantage? BTW i will use every A rated book that is available to me.

    That's fine, as it is your choice. My choice is that I do not use them anymore for the reasons I stated. Each to his own.

    Their customer service is good and never had a problem with a payout. However, their lines suck for favorites and are always late. If you want to bet dogs they usually have good lines for that.

    Finally now were talking, i was saying that u can find quite a few off numbers from time to time to jump on that are better than all other books at times. Go look at SBR betting odds and check it out u will see that for dogs mostly that the numbers for baseball will be sometimes+5 to +10 difference at times, that's $50-$100 on 1k. Ive been finding these daily lately also.

    Bodog has the best live betting software, that has to be part of the reason. Not to mention the easy to use website. Never had a problem with 'bounced' checks, but I am sure if I did Bodog would solve the problem quickly and applicably

    Yeah, like people who can't even figure out that "are" is the verb used with plurals, not "is." That the casino malfunctioned wouldn't be a huge deal if 1) it was addressed in a timely manner and 2) they admitted fault, rather than claim it was "minor."

    If you see the same lines in your Bodog account as you see on sbrodds, you are either very new to Bodog or a total square. No one with any sort of a clue gets the sbrodds displayed, they get about 5c worse on all +1.5 runlines, for example.

    i think what they do is they profile you if your'e a sharp dog bettor who looks for line value or a young square who got a hell no clue on sportsbetting. I totally agree that that the display on sbrodds is different from the time that you log in to your bodog account. I remember betting a line where it was -110 on a browser but when i log in it was -120 worse, i remember they had history of moving lines against your favor if you tried wagering on a line and they interrupt with you the line has change or something.(that was 2008 if i can recall when i started).

    Well who the fu-ck looks at a post for grammar to be corrected when most people on forums type fast and to be honest im not here to make a point to write perfect, but obviously u are here to correct typing and to be stupid maybe u should be a teacher. Like i said before Bodog is not the only place to have errors in there casino and if im not mistaken the situation was corrected.

    Here we go again, well i used the odds sheet for OP to look at as an example and see "AT TIMES" maybe 1 or 2 games a day if that, for "DOGS" that Bodog's #'s are better than any other place at times. And i did make a point to let OP know that Bodog should not be the only place you play and i did say to OP that why not use Bodog for these good times. Call me whatever u want but i will vouch for any of the Books that i use or have used in the past and i will say this again "Anyone that says that Bodog or any A SBR rated book is bad for that matter doesn't know sh-it and is just foolish". Go ahead and correct any spelling errors instead of trying to understand my point Skelator.
