For those who play there, is it a good one to have in your arsenal at this time of year? Any opinions, good or bad would be appreciated.

Seems like a redundent question. I'd imagine that the people that play there do such because they feel Holly to be a good book to have ;)

lander, I'm interested in why they play there, or why they don't. You may like a book because they have unique or early lines and others only care about quick payouts. Others may have had bad experiences. Just want to learn from others experiences, sorry if you thought it was a silly question, I try to avoid those where possible. Thanx for the reply fish and cp.

That clears it up, sir.

To re-iterate what Fish said, I find them to be an EXTREMELY valuable book during the ENTIRE year. The -107 is a great advantage by itself, but coupled with a LM that isn't sissy like 99% of the other books it just makes Holly that much more of a 'must have'.

Hollywood is one of my favorite places to play at. Solid shop I think.

NP. I meant that in the context of opinions, not limits. You can't get Grande type limits, but if you play a few dimes you'll have no problems.

Hollywood as an out:

Pros: Fast and reliable payouts, excellent customer service, reduced juice

Cons: Lines come out late--especially in baseball, if you play teasers(which I don't) their teaser odds and selections aren't good.

Summary: based on the above info, I use them during football season, for football and some pro hoops.

This has been my experience with them, Hope it helps.

I used them in the past and found them to be a book I don't need to bother with. Their numbers were always in lockstep with everyone else they never had the best line for anything (bear in mind I use a lot of books). If anything, I had trouble finding enough bets to even meet rollover requirements.

It seemed almost like they had a guy whose full-time job it was to sit there and watch Pinnacle and make sure they never had a number hanging out anywhere. I would find more bets at Stan James with their 40 cent lines than I did at Hollywood with -107.

It's been at least a year since I used them and I was saying to a contact recently that maybe it was time to try them again. He said no, they're still exactly the same in that regard.

Groucho- That is certainly not the case as of now, as many will confirm.

The only issue that I have with Holly is that you are limited to 1 DIME on ALL of the ADDED games that are on the schedule. LT

I consider them a top five book. Your money is safe at this place. Also besides Pinacle its the only place I can think of that will let you bet 5000 on N.F.L. sides at 107 vig on the intenet. I wish they would increase there limits on the college hoops. Customer service is the best in Costa Rica bar done.
