    BFC - My experience

    A few weeks ago, SBR had a few negative threads on Betfirstclasssportsbook.com. Now I've played there before, always found them to be solid and know Judge is usually around the forums if there are issues so decided to give them a shot. Posted up for a nickle, so far no complaints.

    The biggest complaint I've heard before was the juice. Immediately noticed the dimelines on bases. Not sure of the cut off (-150 or-160?) but nice to see. I am sure judge will chime in here with clarification. Better than reduced juice bases, I've found lines on NBA series, NHL series and golf matchups at 10 to 40 cents better prices the Jamaica or Phoenix.

    Service has been excellent, judge has answered all emails promptly. Anytime I've called always gotten someone (another old complaint).

    Finally payouts, the true test of any shop. That I will need to report back on after this weekends action. Bet a chunk against tiger in some matchups. Assuming they win, I'll probably pull back my initial post up. Will post back here with the time frame, but so far, so good. Kudos to judge and the staff at BFC.

    Requested ** this AM, spoke with Judge who said it would be done. Will post back with update...

    So far not a bad experience, of course that will change likely based on my laying -260 on the cavs series.

    Well it is not too far out there that he got paid in three hours. You can't deny that they have had some problems this year, but before that they usually paid within hours, sometimes minutes if the method allowed it. I was paid $1000 by transfer to BetCris in something like 30 minutes late march, around the same time that dustdevil (not sure if that is his handle here) had problems getting paid.

    Hopefully they have found their way back again. It was great dealing with Judge, but I was never impressed by the other staffers working there. E-mails went unanswered until he was in the office to answer them, so I wasn't impressed by the other staffers there.

    Chopsticks - spot on post, place is good, but there have been past issues with c/s there. Things move much more smoothly when dealing with judge.

    Never denied there were issues, or that they will likely continue to be issues. Guess what though..every book has issues. What seperates books is how and how quickly they adress an issue.

    BFC moves quickly if you contact Judge. Ever call CRIs/Bookmaker with an issue ? The place has more resources than anyone, yet answers take forever it seems. One person promises something, only to have another say they can't do that. It's why I don't play there.

    With BFC you get small shop personalized service. You can't have everything these days in one place...want selection and security, go to BP, 5dimes, Greek or CRIS...want unique lines, a free payout and more focused CS on the few times you use it, try BFC.
