It should also be noted that CRIS and Olympic deal 20 cent baseball lines where Bodog deals a dimeline.

Did they just switch to dime lines? I thought I read that somewhere...

[mikesixtysix]

You should probably read Ganchrow's post on theoretical hold before you start quoting those lines as evidence of high juice. Anderson-Bolleli has FAR higher juice than the Federer match you just quoted, as does Kiefer-Simon.

did i say i was picking the match with the highest? i just picked one randomnly... pick any you like. show me one on bodog that's better than 5dimes. that was the point. bodog has inflated juice... argue that point.

[donjuan]

Did they just switch to dime lines?

No. Overnight they are not dimeline, but they are the day of the game.

[durito]

huh? just take a look at any of the lines, not even close. i'm not talking about props. Let's look right now... Federer/Ginepri at Cincinnati.

Bodog has Federer -3300, Ginepri +1000
5Dimes has Federer -1150, Ginepri +800

Not even in the ballpark. Bodogs juice is the worst in the industry of any of the major books.

The theoretical hold (juice) on a:
-3300/1000 lineset is 5.79%
-1150/800 lineset is 3.02%
-115/-115 is 6.52%
-110/-110 is 4.54%

The point is that -3300/+1000 isn't as bad as you, or others, make it out to be. While 5 Dimes has lower juice on ATP/WTA matches, they have higher juice than -3300/+1000 on many of their Challenger matches. And I've already pointed out one instance where Bodog beats several other industry leaders.

Look, Bodog is certainly not perfect, but it beats the hell out of 5 Dimes if you actually are looking to make money. 5 Dimes actively takes shots at players, misgrades wagers more than any other book in the industry and pulls stunts like changing the lines while you are trying to make a bet.

[durito]

Try winning consistently at tennis at 5dimes and see what kind of juice you get

[mikesixtysix]

i see a glut of posts about payout issues with bodog... and isn't that pretty much the worst thing a book can do, not payout? i'd still be using them if they just paid... waiting two months now.

[donjuan]

That is certainly an issue and a downside to Bodog. That said, the debit card should be faster for that. I'm waiting on mine to arrive in the mail, at the moment.

[Arrrby2]

yea forget bodog they are GARBAGE!! use someone else and sleep well at night!!

[durito]

i'm quite sure bodog would love to go back to 2 years ago when they could pay everyone their $25 withdraws in 5 minutes.

instead of calling them everyday, try calling your congressman.

[mikesixtysix]

it's alot more than 25 bucks, douche bag. but thanks for the advice.

[durito]

why don't you have them send it to your neteller account.

oh, that's right

[fiveteamer]

what I don't understand is, why is it so easy to DEPOSIT money with these books?

30 mins for a deposit, 4 months for a withdrawal?

anyway you try and sugar coat this with "its the us govt fault, processor, blah blah" is garbage.

at the very least books should have a notice on their websites about slow payouts, for whatever reason. There is NO reason not to have this.

[Kritz23]

I requested one payout from Bodog and it did work last December. They got a check to me within 10 days. It was small so maybe that was the reason. I just found this a few minutes ago, might be worth a read.

that's nuts

10 g is big money to be betting sports but online casino is crazy

where you get that kind of loot to gamble so recklessly?

[pat venditto]

this was 2 years ago. depositted 500$ into bodog, hit a 3 team parlay in nba season,then run that 4k into 10k than lost it all betting 500 a spin.

Trust me once I lost that 10k that feeling was the worst feeling in the world.

that's kickass to turn 500 into 10 g

i got the casino turned off on my accounts

do not trust

[daggerkobe]

How does pat "know" whether Bodog can pay out $10k if he lost it all before cashing out?


I've been requesting checks between $2000-$3000 each month since last September and been getting them 2-5 weeks. This is the first time it has gone over 2 months.

[mikesixtysix]

It's now over the 40 business days, and they missed that deadline too. All they provide are lame excuses.

[mikesixtysix]

Original payout request dated 6/9, two months ago today. Nice.

[Steeltown]

DonJuan you are clueless. Stop making excuses for books that deceive and dont pay. The fact that you are making excuses for them tells you what this industry has gotten to. Terrible!

[daggerkobe]

You guys should file a complaint with SBR (if you haven't already) and Bill will get on it. They finally paid after he hounded them.

[NMARTINI]

I got my money today after calling them last night. I ** the money in after making a credit card deposit. i verified the cards i had on file and after last night i woke up to a email to pick up your money from ** and it was there. i left 300 in for some reason but moved over to betjam so im pretty happy

[doodle2576]

I filed a complaint over a week ago, but haven't heard anything since I sent the e-mail and still no money from Bodog after 2 months.

[payupsucker]

Google, Bodog payout delays, to get more info on just how bad it really is for current US customers dealing with payout issues.
Bodog management has no idea on when customers will get paid or what method will be available for payouts from one day to the next.
Read for yourself the lies and bad info customers are getting from Bodog customer service.
Bodog should be a D- book for all players from the U.S.
The Morris Mohawk Gaming Group = Jazette Group.

[biffsworld]

I've been having problems with Bodog too. In June, I requested payouts totaling $6600. To date, I have received $5,000 and am still waiting on $1,600. They are no longer allowing me to use ** for payouts, because even though I've used it before, it has not been my "regular deposit method." Bunch of BS. I called today about my payout for $1,600 and they told me I would get a check within 10 business days of today. So 2 weeks.

God, this is so ridiculous. I also received my Bodog debit card in the mail today but was recommended by their customer service not to use it because there have been problems with it.

[biffsworld]

Has anyone that's owed money not been paid at all? Delays happen (I suppose), but not getting paid is obviously a lot worse.

[golfguy112233]

whats worse? the long wait for a payout/ not knowing when or the registration process with sia and having to send a fax a million times?

[doodle2576]

The debit cards don't work. The processing company cancelled all cards concerning Bodog. They said to just shred it and throw it away. As for not being paid, Yes I can say I have not been paid. Daggerkobe got help, I guess, but it did nothing for me.

Just gonna right it off as a loss and make sure to let others know how Bodog operates. I'm on the computer at least 12 hours a day on numerous forums and will be sure to let the word out so others, like ourselves, don't get screwed over also.

I took the B+ Rating from SBR as a feeling of safety, but that wasn't the case for me. I won't rely on SBR's ratings solely in the future. Will make sure to see where other forums have various books rated as well.

looks like there on a hiring blitz......Bodog is hiring account execs and clerks
for there Canadian operation.

yep if you call in bets, you would notice less clerks

[payupsucker]

After 49 business days I received an email from Bodog with tracking #. Half way home on this payout. So it looks like it is taking between 45-55 business days to get check to customers.
Hope all you guys get your money soon.
If I have any problems with check I'll let you know.
Do yourself a favor and don't use this book if you are from the US.

How long as it been? I've had Bodog take a long ass time to pay me, but they have always ended up paying.
