Since my favorite reduce juice books from back in the day (Pin, Canbet, Mansion) are no longer options for us in the 'land of the free' (to do what your told) I've been researching other books w/ reduced juice.

Anyone have an opinions on them?
Do they pay quickly?

Looks like they are the bargain basement of mlb lines.

By far the most least talked about and underated book at TheRX.com

they have so many options and such low juice, quite frankly, it is amazing and I cannot beleive they are not talked about more.

yesterday for example when I released montreal as my CFL play they were the only shop that had +6.5 -105.

They have a true dime line in pucks for totals and sides.... I could go on and on and on.... really..... fantastic out.

One downside for me as a Canadian is they only have Moneygram and Western Union as dep options, and that is expensive from Canada....

If my memory serves me correctly they are from Catalina Group (but I could be wrong).

Lander, is this the first post you have made in a while? I cant remember seeing u for the longest time now.

Hi Savant. Been away for a while. Got 3-5 for conning and beat up the elderly. Fortunately, Shrink is okay.

Just messing ... been having the itch to get back. Have been out of the game since Sen Frist represented the people and secured our ports from terrorism by making sure I couldn't use NETeller to put a nickel on whoever was about to beat the crap out of my beloved Toronto Bills.

How u been sir?

They are Catalina

Great lines

I think they transfer with CRIS/ Bookmaker

I liked them, when I played there.

One thing that struck me about how they do things is they don't do pennies. Not an issue if you're putting $100 on a game, but if you're playing less you're not getting the lines they post. (Ex: $20 at -108 pays $18, so you're only getting -111 in reality).

Lander I have been very good, thanks for asking.

Unfortunatly I cannot give you a first hand report on the speed of their payouts because I have never been good enough to request one from them, either I am a square or they have a very sharp linesmaker, not sure which yet.

Also note, if you open an account at Betvegasvic and give the RX as your refferrer you will be able to compete in the MJ challenge for a free shot at $250.

yes I do remember that, basically u have to just make sure you are betting a round number that does not involve pennies, its a minor annoyance.

Annoying, to be sure. It happens to cut both ways out there, however. BetAtlas doesn't so pennies either, but they round up for winnings the hit xx.50. You can basically play +100 all day there - just load up $5 wagers.

surely they woudnt be too happy if you did that....

I guess its a bit more of an annoyance than I realized if betting less than $100 so I deleted my earlier post.

However, the vast majority of their football games are -105. In a case like that you can risk $21 to win $20. But I do agree, when the vig starts to get funky like your example of -108, it can be problematic.

I never considered it my job to make the book happy. They paid for my vacation this summer, so I'm certainly happy.

I hear you, but if you are making like 20 $5 wagers in a row, to take advantage of their software, some day they might make an "executive decision" and back charge you for it. Just sayin.... cud happen.

I'd expect to get the boot for that kind of abuse. Thing is I ended up playing just about everything on the board. Added up fast. Made my $$ and left.

dont really think they would have any leg to stand on by "back charging" you...its there software thats doing it...not you

i doubt they go back in later and say, wow our software cost you this many pennies this year, here's a rebate...

To me, if they set their software up that way, there is nothing wrong with betting to your advantage...

i have played at books that did this as well..

bucs, if you are making 1 $5 bet and it happens to be in your favor, then yes, its their software and not you.

if you make 100 $5 bets in order to get $500 on a certain team, and you know that you are getting better odds by doing this, then it is you taking advantage of their software, and its unethical. They completely would have a leg to stand on.

Was doing a forum search on this book for some info, decided to bump this thread instead of starting a new one:

Now that we are a few weeks into the College/Pro FB season, I was
wondering how they have been for those playing there? Customer
service, handling of payouts, internet service on busy Saturday/Sundays,
Etc. Thanks in advance for any info and or updates good or bad. Thanks.

Again my problem with these is lack of deposit options. Not having Moneybookers in the current marketplace seems a very odd business decision.

I wonder if one of the RX guys could follow up on the depsoit options? All CS will tell me is that they don't currently offer anything except MG and WU.
