    Prop bets - I need a new book

    I had been using Bovada for betting props, as they offer a ton of over/under NHL shots on goal props and I had been doing well. Well, my account has recently been limited and I need a new book that has close the options bovada had and I cannot seem to find one.

    Does anyone on this forum have any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hockey is such a small market, not a lot of good choices.

    Bodog only book Ive seen with NHL player props

    Sportsbook.ag used to have them not sure anymore
    5dimes had props but mostly for playoff games
    Some of the small euro books used to have them, ladbrokes for instance

    Will be hard to find though

    How much were you betting them for and what did they cut your limits to? And for how long did they let you go before you were limited? And have you had any trouble getting paid on those bets?

    I have the same problem with nba player props, I had a local that took them for a while, but now he doesn't want the action. I need a book that I can fly under the radar for a while to build a BR.

    Anyone know where you can bet $50-$100 on daily nba player props and have no issues?

    Why would any book care if you scalp when the vig is up to a 30 to 40 cent spread??

    Of course they care. They want people betting the spreads and totals....do parlays and teasers. That's how they make the profit. Juice is irrelevant on props because some books move their prop lines slower than others,hence makes them scalpable and vulnerable to sharps and scalpers alike.

    Curious to what they limited your risk too? $50 per player prop?

    Max Im allowed to bet on any team or player prop on 5dimes now is "To win $100"

    So why not make it so the line only moves if a side is bet? It's a $100 limit. They can sit there and collect vig all day long.

    Someone who makes a bet with the intent to bet the other side ASAP to make a small guaranteed profit, rather than gamble on the result.

    Might need a new book for NBA props... 5Dimes seems to have gone to a 40 cent line overnight. Actually not all props but most of the players.
