    Sbr should downgrade bodog
    The site has become much harder to navigate. Less clear and sharp.
    The VIG seems to have gone significantly up after the launch of the new website as well. It is higher than most live betting sites.
    EX- Barcelona- Manchester united in soccer today is:
    MNU +0.5 -146
    BARCELONA -0.5 +111.

    Its become almost unbetable and unbearable at this website which once was quite good.

    35c for them seems about right on a -145 no?

    We are talking to them about the new website. There is a lot of tuning going on so we will have to give it some time.

    As far as feedback keep the specifics coming. Anytime there is a new site be it SBR or ESPN people want what the were used to. So we need to differentiate between hey I hate the new look and the amount of clicks it ultimately takes to get a bet in.

      Billy, the mean difference is the simplicity.
      It was very simple to use bodog before.
      It was very easy to navigate soccer leagues and they had a specific section like most sites listed "soccer today".
      It is much more difficult to find games now.
      Also, someone posted in the other thread their tennis vig has gone up.

      This is a MAJOR COMPANY, I am surprised at how bad this new look is.

        I didn't use them before but clicking around the new site I don't see any obvious reason to hate it.

        Personally I find really simple sites like 5Dimes best so would probably complain if they changed to this layout but looking at it like someone coming to a new book it seems pretty clear and efficient enough to find things I want.

        Much simpler than other mobiley style site looking skins I've seen and hated.

          What took 2 clicks before on the old site to find a line can now take up to 5 clicks to find the same bet. That is not progress.

            What is the margin now on an even player match? Do they break the line earlier on bigger favorites?

            It looks like players on mobile and people using search are going to have better experience. More clicks per bet submitted is definitely major factor if not the major factor for user experience.

            SBR will be adding a new category in our rating guide called "# clicks or actions to bet". We will count the shortest route to place a straight wager starting at the menu presented after logged in. These will also be included in website tours.

                  It takes several clicks to bet a tennis match. For instance, you have to select the specific tournament you want to bet before seeing the days matchups. Definitely not progress

                    Takes forever to find the matchs.
                    Over 8 clicks to find a fkin soccer match


                    i know pinny gets technical problems sometimes but they have the best interface imo, especially asian view. Very easy and less than 4 clicks needed to place bet

                      its simple the more the simple the website the more efficient they are

                      Clicking is a big thing even on mobile applications

                      some books get it and others do not

                        The upgrade looks promising, just wish it was finished. Other than that top tier book, best poker, best casino.

                          ITS NOT SIMPLE.
                          THAT'S THE POINT.

                          It USED TO be!

                          B4 it USED TO BE 3-4 clicks.

                          It takes people 5-10 mins to find a fkin game now. Some cannot even find it, check forums.

                          Lol this Kindred dude likes the colors, the finding 5 games, the arcade like look.

                          The colors are throwing people off.

                            They used to show the results of all sports games at the bottom of the screen once it was concluded. I don't see that anymore. Also, where is all the information on the teams, betting trends, pitching matchups for baseball etc. I don't see any of that now either.

                              takes 15 FKIN CLICKS JUST TO SEE THE FULL MLB CARD.

                              IT TOOK LIKE 3 BEFORE.

                              SBR CANNOT SUPPORT THIS "UPGRADE" AND MUST DOWNGRADE BODOG OR AT LEAST GIVE PLAYERS THE OPTIONS TO PLAY AT THE OLD SITE OR OLD MOBILE SITE
