i currently use bodog and i think is really user friendly, and i don't see anything wrong with it. . . especially if i wanted to play the ponies or poker i am one click away. . . also the depositing is instant from my checking account, which is very covienent. . . however i have heard several people say bo dog is trash and i was curious and why you all think that?. . . what is so much better at these other sites? where should i be and why?

[pags11]

louisvillekid,

please get your money out of bodog immediately...I know that SBR still has them in the A- category, but I'm not going to comment further other than to say I respectfully disagree...

I recommend the following four books:

matchbook
bookmaker
betjamaica/ greek
legendz/ the pig

you will become extremely happy once you have your money in these books, but please do not contact me via private message about giving me a referral bonus, because I would be "stealing" from SBR...you will enjoy those books though...GL bud...

[Dead Money]

I second what Pags says.

Bodog deals dual lines. They also put the lines up very late.

Lines go up sunday night at most books. When does bodog put them up? Sat. or Sunday morning?

[bigboydan]

Matchbook or BetJM would be who I would recommend LK.

thanks for the input

I'll take your action. Send me $5,000 ** and I will give you a $10,000 credit line. Honest.

[IWishIWasRich]

Last NBA playoff season BoDog failed to put up a money line often, why I don't know. I no longer use them. I like 5Dimes OK, no problems. Early lines etc.

[sweethook]

anyone have input on sportsbook.com ? i find they put lines up late and ML real late. i no if u pick 1 side a time or two then go back and put them in a parlay they say odds have changed allways in there fav. ive been there 4 years thinking about leaving. gl and ty

[BuddyBear]

sportsbook.com is one of the worst books you can possibly play with sweethook. You should get your money out of there as quickly as possible.

The best thing to do is have money in Matchbook and another account (i.e. Bookmaker, BetJamaica, Olympic, Legeden). Not Slodog though.

[Louisvillekid1]

the logic of having money in two accounts, is in case you can get a better line at one of them. . . im guessing? Will do that next year, i will be back strong. . . after learning everything i have from this site, im so excited to start next season already. It will be my 1st full year doing everything right, and not chasing , and just straight money management capping!. . .im only 22, im starting to learn some discipline for gambling. . .

I've been with Bodog for over 2 years and they've always been good to me! They're a little tough on the betting lines for sports...ie....late lines and if you find a game you like at
-6 it will be -6 (-115) on Bodog! I play semi-pro poker on there though and always find soft games which more than makes up for the tougher lines. Their daily poker tournaments almost always have a overlay...for example....a $30,000 guaranteed payout will have maybe 425 sign up at $60 each which is only $25,500! Thats $4,500 of their money that they're contributing to the purse! You won't find that anywhere else to my knowledge....definitely not on Stars or Full Tilt! Their payouts are dependable and a little quicker again....received the last 2 within a week of the request...the only catch being it takes 2 weeks approximately for your deposit to clear for them! I also play Betus which has better lines and posts them much sooner. Big drawback there is they required $25,000 of play for withdrawal on a $5k deposit....which most players never reach! For a small to medium sports player...Bodog works for me!!

[tblues2005]

good update there Mr. Handicapable on how fast they pay you. Within a week is much better than before.

[Louisvillekid1]

I think ill keep a bank roll on their for poker and open sports accounts on bookmaker and matchbook. If bodog offers me a better line there for some reason ill play it on that site. Thanks for the input

If you like the ponies, then BOL or BM is perfect for you--because of the rebate. If you're betting horses at Bodog, you're giving money away.

[sweethook]

ty u all 4 the infor.

[Stumpage]

I'll second (or third) Greek.....Obviously, when it comes rightdown to it, the most important thing is will you get paid, and this site, to the best of my knowledge, has never, ever stiffed even a single human.....

[luciano]

The greek is my favorite, I just started at BetJam like 2 weeks ago and it is also nice. Havent withdrawn at Betjam yet but if thegreek owns them or whatever Im sure it will be fine when I do. Thegreek might be better than PokerStars with payouts and PokerStars is really fast.

[Always_Over]

Kid - I am also new, and learning discipline. No more parlays over 2 teams for me and I am going to start betting less games but more confidence.

So im with bodog right,
I dont mind the slow lines, since I like to bet on the game the day of the game anyway, Also my friend gets payouts from bodog all the time he said after the first one they take 5-10 days everytime, so I am not so worried about that.


But what other ways do you get money to and from a book. I am thinking of trying BetJamaican for sports and PokerStars for Poker -

u think this is a good move?

[Louisvillekid1]

i recently opened accounts at bookmaker and matchbook, along with my bo dog account. . . already finding that im winning more games by having three different lines to choose from. . . i still like playing poker at bo dog. . .

[Always_Over]

pokerstars takes some getting used to, but it feels less glitchy than bodog, and there are more types of rooms to choose from.

I had to open up a epasspot account since it wasnt taking my CC
I tried to deposit the remainder in bodog who wouldnt take it...
this online shit is tricky

[Louisvillekid1]

I just dug this up because i noticed a lot of new guys asking about this topic. . . Don't know if mod's what to leave it up top or w/e . . .
