Bodog lines and betting limits are horrible. There are bookies in the 6th grade that have higher limits and better lines than Bodog!

Bodog pays and provides a nice website and usually helpful customer service. I don't bash them as a joke nor do I mean any disrespect. However for a real gambler it is very difficult to have them as an option. Bodog is good for younger gamblers who don't know better or older gamblers who just care to have $10 on the NBA Finals. If you are gambling daily and trying to turn a profit (not just get action on TV games) then there are so many other choices.

Right on the money my friend.
What I would add is they are very good for dogs. ( not greyhound racing) :-$

Bodog often has off lines on tennis and soccer, though.

The vig is not good, but pick your spots and you can get better lines than the market.

Bodog's lines are pretty bad but this was the first book I ever played at when I didn't know any better. I think Bodog is good for newcomers/recreational players.

For pure sports betting, Bodog is atrocious compared to other books.
However, if you like a total package with Poker, Casino and Sportsbetting then its a solid book. You can always find a poker game on there.

Underdog lines are decent, and they always payout.
However, customer service is retarded, and if you are purely betting sports I would play elsewhere.

They will slash your limits each week before ultimately banning you after a month if you bet their tennis / soccer lines. Assuming you're not a "capper" and actually know how to wager.

They're probably the most blatant rec book out there. You won't get much out of them before they start viewing you as a threat. I started getting their infamous dual lines when I played a bunch of live props a while back. I never played the entire game, quarters, halftimes, etc.; just live betting with a measly $90 bonus. And I was only up maybe $500.

I have no clue why anyone would willingly play there. You're only cheating yourself.

I hit a royal there a few years ago.Couldn't believe my eyes,& they paid promptly

You're only cheating yourself out of money by not playing there if you have a clean account.

You may be cheating yourself out of money but it's not all that much money. I had a similar experience to iQon although I won a bit more than $500 (probably closer to $3000) and I gave them action on some "vanilla" full game lines too in an attempt at cover play. Like everyone else I was put on dual lines almost immediately but after I beat their props for around $3000 they started putting me on a delay and rejecting my action and moving the line. I would try to bet a prop, after the 60 second delay "sorry the line has moved" and they'd move the line.
