If you had any doubt about the value of SportsOptions...

RickA · Feb 4, 2009

We sent a Critical Notice on Parker, Duncan and Ginobili all out 2 minutes before Don Best. The line was Denver 5.5-6 before the notice and jumped to 8 almost immediately before going all the way to 13. The game landed 8.

No matter what side of the counter you are own, this early information made you enough money to pay for at least a year of SportsOptions! :money8:

If you haven't tried SportsOptions - just shoot me an email and I will get you a trial account.

Is the info ever wrong ?

Yes, there are times when a player is reported out or in and then is a late addition or scratch, but it is very rare. And when it does happen, we get the information back out before any other service.

catching it in time...glued to the screen, so to speak, would seem tough to do... but if you routinely get the info first, it has value....seems there would be about one minute to react... before it is old news , sorta like a RAS total ?

You're right - you do have to stay on the screen at the key times.

And you can't win just blindly betting the injuries - sometimes it is about getting a middle and sometimes you are best off waiting for the public to overreact to the information.

But one thing is for sure - you are way ahead of the game if you're getting the info minutes before it hits Don Best.

Rick--are any LV sportsbooks using SportsOptions?

How about in the offshore world?

Hey Fish -

Right now there is a small % of both offshore and Vegas books using SO.

It was interesting to watch - when we sent the message out last night, the books that used SO either immediately moved 2 points or took the game down, while the books that do not use SO just moved in half-point increments.

I know I am biased, but I honestly cannot understand how a book that use multiple line service accounts does not have at least one SportsOptions account. My guess is that for years books have seen startup line services come and go, and none ever offered anything more than DB, except a lower price. That is what makes us different - because of our experience and the team we have, we actually give customer more than they can get from just DB.

For a small investment at one of those SpyShops online, you can get a buzzer that attaches to your nads with alligator clips and via a wireless signal is sparked by a SportsOptions refreshed feed.

Never ever again miss an important Update

This statement is Very True Rick. Doesn't make sense Not to Use Sportsoptions.

Just to let some people know. A Very Big Credit Shop that uses SO
Took that game down as soon as that received the Information.

It's just a Great and Important Tool to have ! :toast:

let me get this straight rick you give us one example of a big line move in 3 months and this pays for the whole season.what happens if i cant be at ny computer 24/7 and i miss this key information.we cant allbe at our computers all day long.that key two minute period isnt much time i think all sportsbooks have the same odds and you arent going to beat them to the punch to often rick your service is outdated.

if you really want to get us some information find out where the players are going at night and how many broads there having sex with now thats key information.:wtf:

If you get two minutes before the other sites that plenty of time to put down the coldcuts and the white bread,hurdle the dog,and log on to your account,and get down the play...
