    Bodog/Bovada is an nightmare

    They dont pay 1st half bets until after the game and they also dont allow an open bet to be turned into a rolling if bet.

    Rookie book.

    lol agreed look how they graded one of my bets yesterday:

    Date placed:
    Nov 23, 2012 2:47p


    Date settled:
    Nov 23, 2012 2:51p    		 Live Betting #xxxxxxxxxx (Placed by Web)
    Will LSU acquire a first down on this series of downs?
    LSU Tigers at Arkansas Razorbacks
    LSU - 2nd & 7 @ LSU5 (1st Qtr 11:03)
    "First Down" 1.46 Fri@2:30p    		 Outcome:
    Loss
    Risk CA$ 50.00 to win CA$ 22.97

    As u can see I placed a bet 3 mins later on their 1st and 10….meaning they got the first down:

    Date placed:
    Nov 23, 2012 2:50p


    Date settled:
    Nov 23, 2012 2:52p    		 Live Betting #xxxxxxxxxx (Placed by Web)
    Will LSU acquire a first down on this series of downs?
    LSU Tigers at Arkansas Razorbacks
    LSU - 1st & 10 @ LSU35 (1st Qtr 8:40)
    "First Down" 1.27 Fri@2:30p    		 Outcome:
    Loss

    Risk CA$ 25.00 to win CA$ 6.76

    I'm going to have to guess what allowing an "open bet to be turned into a rolling if bet" means as I don't think I ever needed the option from a book before but sounds like your problems are more of an issue of you lacking proper funds in your account than anything else...

    Ive had live betting issues with them before, all it takes is a call for them to correct it. When I was only playing online poker, they would offer bonuses and free chips all the time...once I started using their sportsbook....nothing free. Only when greenbay lost to seattle.

    My biggest problem with them is their scared lines. They only put up certain sides, and totals early. Some moneylines never even make it until an hour before kickoff

    they need to pay bets faster and also get lines up earlier. how they are a top rated book is ridiculous. there were times i was waiting for nba lines about an hour before tip. i had to get out and did.

    looking at 5Dimes they already have lines for tomorrow's basketball games. that is a real book.

    Bodog and Bovada are two different companies

    Hey guys,

    The title of this thread is misleading- the Bodog branded gambling sites and Bovada are not the same thing- the Bodog brand left the US market in 2011. The Bodog branded family of gambling sites includes the Asian facing Bodog88.com, the Canadian facing Bodog.ca and the recently (and temporarily) closed Bodog.co.uk. Bovada is owned by a completely separate company.

    Thanks!
    Becky

    Ah, glad I'm here to clear this up! Bodog Brand voluntarily left the US market in December of 2011- there's more information available in this article if interested.

    Thanks!
