why do bodog lines stink?

[Streaky]

why is almost every line -15/-05? so you can't by a half? they're lines are heavily slanted against the fav to begin with. i'm going back to 5 dimes. the only good things i would say about bodog are instant bonuses and easy deposits by check. otherwise they are line nazis.

I agree BoDog is the worst online book. I am dying to get out of there.:smoker2:

they do it so they dont lose thier shirts. its a way of managing risk. when the line is at 3, and action moves the line to 3-, they open themselves up to risk, so they make the line -120 for one side and -100 for the other and leave it at 3

BoBog May Be Bad

But "Sportbet" run by Jake Slater is worse. Luckily I only posted a small amt. 500.00 and have used them sparingly. They do more line manipulation than any other book! Their lines go up late Mon., very few if any CFB ML`s or totals, CS is a joke, you can NEVER get to talk to a supv. or Slater. Seems they`re on a perpetual lunch break! In other words a nightmare. On top of everything else their software is pitiful. STAY AWAY!! I think they have about 10 employees.

Tough crowd. I like both books and glad they are available.

Bodog is a great book if you like to play dogs. I have it strictly for any dog I do play.

I agree. Just tried BoDog for the first time, and it is terrible. The easy deposits are nice. But, Lines are bad (unless playing a dog). Can't buy points. Can't parlay certain games. Bad set up. When I play the dogs, I will stick with SIA .

dog house

that's right phil, use them as a dog house!

If you're ever looking at dogs, it's a great place to score an extra ½ point... and if that's "bad", then I don't want it to be "good".

Make sure you have options and shop it.

BetUS.com is the same way. Their lines and the time they put their lines out suck at best. They do have a good bonus program.
