    DSI is way to tight, getting tired of their tight/no lines

    Please wait for a site operator to respond.

    You are now chatting with 'CS Diego'

    CS Diego: Welcome, nice to have you with us today . . . I’m happy to assist you . . .
    xx41x2: Why is there no team total posted for the New York / New Jersey basketball game?
    CS Diego: For security reasons, can you please confirm your password?
    xx4s52: reeeewq
    CS Diego: Thank you! I appreciate it…
    CS Diego: May I please have a moment to check on that for you..
    xxr1ze2: there is a team total posted for every other game but that one
    CS Diego: Yes sir, unfortunately we are not providing team totals on that game today because the line has moved a lot and there is a player that will not play...
    CS Diego: Therefore we don't have the line..
    xx41t5y: Every other B+ or higher rated book has a line for that game
    CS Diego: Ye sir, I understand but unfortunately we will not have that line....
    xx4wn52: Fine
    CS Diego: Is there anything else I can assist you with?
    xxt1qf2: DSI really needs to loosen up. You are reluctant to put up college totals, for instance
    xx25252: I really wanted to wager that game
    CS Diego: I truly apologize...
    xx5752: good day
    CS Diego: I wish you a great day and thanks for connecting with us.

    lol, good call, I am extra cranky today, I'm pretty much even gambling today, that's not it, but I almost broke my ass on the ice earlier with the dogs, my wife butchered the pizza, DSI wouldn't give me the game I wanted.............

    Slow with lines even though they claim early lines, customer service is mediocre, you can tell English is a 2nd perhaps 3rd language at times.

    Not my fav book either tbh. Then again, hard to be too critical of a book that always paid, and quick.

    SBR still has them as P, with the slogan "high limits and variety".
    I guess they pay promptly here too.

    The only problem I have with DSI is I get the line changed on me quite often when I go to place a wager, and it is never in my favor. It happens at 5dimes often as well, but 5dimes it is about 60/40 against me. DSI has never changed a line in my favor. It gets a little old. This almost always happens when they have a good line up and I go to take it, I then get the shitty line. I shop a few sites get the good line (not very often) at DSI, then ts gone. It's like a bait and switch.

    Other than that one thing, I like DSI.

    Here's the thing, go back to my first post with the conversation I had with CS.

    I booked Knicks team total UNDER 105.5 when it first opened.
    amare was doubtful.
    I hit that UNDER 3* when it first opened.

    Then later yesterday amare was downgraded to OUT.
    Knicks team total dropped to 102.5 - 103.

    Started shopping around for the ultimate middle.
    Found a 102.5 mostly 103's after the downgrade.
    By the time I was done talking to DSI, my 102.5 went to 103.



    So I middled my original UNDER 105.5 with this at 5Dimes.


    736x947x-1 2/12/2011 Team Total 330.00 300.00 Basketball - 501 New York Knicks team total over 103 -110 for Game

    I wanted to book the bet at DSI because I have like 1400 there.
    But they are chicken chit.

    Yes, they always paid me uber quick.
    Look at the conversation again in post 1, they were more than nice with me.
    But yeesh, could DSI let the little to middle guy make a wager, 300 bucks is nothing to them.

    p.s. NYK won 105-95, I hit both sides of the middle never the less.

    I was in London on business in 2009.
    Incredible what those legal book shops would take action on.
    Plus the lines they gave you were very fair.

    They are solid, that's not my beef with them.
    They will always be an out for me.

    My primary book is 5D.
    My outs are DSI and Greek.

    I used to use Matchbook, but they changed.

    Soccer totals: 40 cent lines. Including the biggest leagues in the world. And that's 'catering to pros'? Why even post those lines?

    In the actual shops in the high street, the Uk bookmakers have no equal, but as posters have pointed out, their online divisions are piss poor, and bet£3.65 don't even have any shops.
    The shops are brilliant for bonus wagers, because the competion is very fierce in the city centre.
    A popular bonus they offer is treble odds on a L15 bet if only 1 winner is achieved

    A L15 involves 15 bets and involves 4 picks, the 15 bets are singles(4) doubles(6) trebles(4) allup(1) which means a 5/1 winner covers your stake.
    I have a feeling many on this forum would make hay with this concession

    Bodog UK is virtually the complete opposite of the US Bodog in terms of loose lines. They only put the big college hoops games up and then if there is a moderate amount of movement they will just the game off the board altogether. DIAGF Bodog UK.
