    Heritage A++.... 100%...best book there is...

    Ran into a few dumb penetrates in customer service but Brian the manager got on the line and he took care of everything in no time....then kept his word and did me a favor.

    Why would you play anywhere else.....

    Hedge Plays: Let's say you have $1,000 in your account at Heritage Sports.

    You love 4 teams and so you put it all on a 4 team parlay - $1,000 to win $11,000. Your first 3 games are day games and they all win.

    Your final game is the Sunday Night NFL game. You have the Rams –3 1/2. Now if the Rams cover you win $11,000. If they don't you lose $1,000. You basically have the Rams – 3 1/2 $1,000 to win $11,000 (because your other 3 teams won).

    Well, since the first 3 games have finished, you've had some time to think that you may not be willing to “ make it or break it ” for $11,000 on just 1 play. Yes you love the Rams but $11,000 is a lot of cheese!

    You can decide to HEDGE your bet with us by wagering, for example, $3,000 on the Rams opponent + 3 1/2. This way if the Rams lose you would still make $2,000 (the $3,000 you bet less the $1,000 you lose on the parlay). But if the Rams win, you will make $7,700 (the $11,000 less the $3,300 you bet as a Hedge on the Rams opponents). YOU CAN'T LOSE!!!!

    Here is the problem with this scenario at other sportsbooks. If all you had was the $1,000 you bet on the 4 teamer, you have no credit to bet the $3,000 on the Rams opponent.

    This is where Heritage Sports “Hedge Play” helps you. We will allow you to “hedge play” the opponent for $3,000 because if it loses, you still win $11,000 on the Rams which would allow you to pay the $3,300 from your $3,000 “hedge play.” If the Rams lose, you will win $3,000 on that bet. You just can't lose with Heritage Sports “Hedge Plays!”

    The above is an example of the many options Heritage Sports offers, where you get more “ bang for your buck.”

    Every book should do this, because any idiot client that does this is lowering their EV.................

    In rare circumstances though, this could come in handy and is a very nice option to have.

    Heritage is a very high quality out for US customers. I keep playing there because of one of the managers treats me well as in he takes the time to respond to my emails.

    Now the problem I have been having is getting money onto the site of all things....p2p processing for deposits was down the day I kept trying to load....over the weekend I did my first W p2p instead of the M variety. I got a destination country to send of Costa Rica. On the form that is generated from their cashier it said send in USD. So I battle with W and the store rep who handles it...it will not send in USD only Colones. I go all the way home after thirty minutes to find out from Heritage that Colones is the only method of transmission and it is fine...run back to the store..send...they get it

    I blow thru that one and decide to send a greater amount this time...the cashier spits out a different destination country.. I go to store and send..I get home go to step 2 in cashier and it has two active p2p's at step 2. Will it divide it up...will there be a problem...alas it is now past the time in which the toll free number and live chat are closed for the night. I go back to store after break from work, and get refund.

    I went to bovada and used cc....money in account for the same as Heritage and it took one minute

    I really like Heritage...just for the losing player that I am....Bovada has better perks than H, and I can fund from home.


    my 2 cents but if you are at all serious about sportsbetting then Heritage is a must have...rock solid..you will get paid

    that went through my head too fisher, but as I'm sure you know most people here won't see the blarely obvious staring them in the face.

    Regardless for a rec player that is probably a nice feeling and it makes the bookie happy so who am I to tell them they are wrong.

    I think that it does not matter if you have $3000 or not to hedge. It's just matter of time when you give Heritage back the $3000. if you have $3000 up front to hedge, then you give Heritage first. If you hedge with credit, then you just give Heritage later.

    So, no matter you have $3000 to hedge or not. When you decide you hedge, you win $8000 when the Rams cover, and win $2000 when the Rams does not cover.

    The only advantage is that you don't have to post up the $3000 first.

    I think this is what fishhead referred to as -EV... Hedging is always -EV.

    Again, no matter you have money or not to hedge, books still pay you $8000 if Rams cover and $3000 if they don't.

    Heritage is sharp to give you this option. More people will hedge their bets.

    Hedge option is mostly profitable for the books because of juice pay on both sides,,, but it sometimes can be a life save to players
