Anyone here that uses bodog?

I do.Have you gotten an update on their MLB "contest" recently? The larger your handle in bases, the larger your gift certificate to MLB.com is. For every $100 risked you get essentially a $1. Minimum gc is $25.

Shake, I use sportsbook.com and have never had any problems withdrawing funds. However, like Bogdog, when I withdraw funds, it does take about a month for the check or wire transfer to arrive. I guess it's just a matter of being patient. Honestly, I would switch web sites if you are recieving messages like the one you got. Especially if you have quite a bit of money on your account. JMO. Hope things work out.

Probably a new development - better that they told you then leave you in the wind. The UIGA is making it difficult on books.

 

[shake zula]

True. Trust me I love Bodog, and I don't think they are trying to swindle me or anything. They just processed my payout request, just irratated that I need to wait almost a month for my cash. I left small amount in the account and withdrew the rest.

So I scramble to throw a bet down on the day game at Detroit minutes before. Take the Angles on a whim because of the decent price. Go check the TV to see bases loaded, nobody out, and there's a big meeting on the mound with the announcers talking about what's wrong with Bonderman and stuff. His finger is still f'd up and he'd been on the DL or something. Bullpen warming up already. Two walks in the first from a guy that averages about 1 per game.

Next pitch to Gary Mathews is comebacker to the mound. Out at the plate and double him up at first. Great. Next pitch, a can of corn to center. Two f'ing pitches, out of the inning.

Go back 10 minutes later to see the Tigers scoring a run and 2 men still on base, nobody out. Next pitch, 3-run homer. Great.

Watched 3 total pitches. 4 - 0 Detroit, nobody out. Game over.

Found this gem about the Tribe and Royals....Cleveland is 8-0 OVER in road games after having lost two of there last three games this season. Kansas City is 9-1 OVER against left-handed starters this season.

Kansas City has had problems with lefty starters with 3-10 record this year; however they will face one who has yet to post a win in 2007. The Tribe’s Sowers is 0-4 with in eight starts. In his last three outings his ERA is monumental 13.15, with opposing batters hitting .373 against his tosses. Cleveland is 1-11 off a loss to a division rival as a favorite of -150 or higher over the last two seasons

I think KC and the over will be part of my card today.

Why not? So you would lay 130 for 100 but not 100 for 160??????Guess that is the difference between me and you I ended up taking the Yankee RL at +155 last night for $200, Giant RL +135 for $100And AC Milan of course $500 to win $1150

Just my opinion, is all. Selective success stories are irrelevant.There are just SO many ways to lose on a home run-line that I don't want to go into it. The biggest being that the team you have placed your money on is not playing to win...BY TWO RUNS. And especially at only -130 or so, that's not laying a ton. National league, 2 decent pitchers, 8 innings instead of 9 obviously...I could go on, but to each his own.

I'm thinking of phading the phightin phils every day that Brett Myers is on the shelf with his shoulder problems. The rest of that bullpen is brutal.

Tonight's a good place to start. No Howard, no Myers and Lieber on the hill in humid Florida. What's the line right now?

Willis v. Lieber is the matchup; Fla -118 is the current line. The way Willis has pitched this year the over may not worth looking at as well.

That was a great number if you got in before the adjustment. Utley actually given the day off also (possibly his first of the season) so the phils lineup looks like crap. under getting demolished also.

to AB for pulling the over on the KC/Cleveland game. Made it my 'big bet' for the night Didn't do too shabby on my other plays, only the Padres kept it from a perfect night.This stuff is pretty easy. I watch for sharp plays from my homeys in here, hammer them heavy, and then play small ball on the stuff I like. What's going on tap for Friday?

 

[Angry Beavers]

Congrats to Guru for picking out my only winner last night and hammering it!

- FYI, the system has hit three run totals in a row. I really like todays UNDER on the Rays//ChiSox as both pitchers are hard to hit right now.

True. Trust me I love Bodog, and I don't think they are trying to swindle me or anything. They just processed my payout request, just irratated that I need to wait almost a month for my cash. I left small amount in the account and withdrew the rest.

Since Pinnacle & Canbet left the U.S. market I've just been going thru a local. However I have noticed that BoDog has their name on televised fighting, which to me is a brilliant move to expose their name to a wider audience. This makes me think they are in it for the long haul, which should be a good thing when it comes to payouts, but i'm not sure what is causing your delays.

 

[Angry Beavers]

I am hearing of issues getting money out of Betus as well....

onto today's card:

There are three chase plays: LA Angels, Florida and Cleveland. Chicago Cubs MAY qualify as well

Found this nugget:The Yankees are 17-4 UNDER in home games after a game where they had six or more extra base hits. They are going against Weaver who has a 1.83 ERA in his last three starts. The issue for me is NYY starting Clippard. Clippard looked good against the NYM giving up one earned over 6 innings in his first ML start, but rookie pitchers are rarely consistent.

Be back later with the final card...

 

[Jefferson the Caregiver]

Tonight's plays, let's make some cash...

Boston Runline -125

On the topic of Bodog, I don't use them but I've heard they move lines against you based on your betting patterns. Little price discrimination at its finest and I assume that this is prevalent in lower tier books (not to say that Bodog is because I think they may have a fairly high rating at SBR).

 

[Angry Beavers]

Three plays booked thus far - all of these fit the chase system:

Good luck gentlemen and have a safe & healthy holiday weekend!

 

[JaxBill]

Friday's picks:

LAA +130 - Clippard had one good start. In a relatively meaningless stat, Yanks are 0-8 in last 8 Friday nights.

PHL + 152 - Phils buoyed by Howard's return? Plus Moyer faces a young Atlanta lineup without Chipper (and the vet Andruw likes to strike out).

I'm parlaying those 2 and adding FL +125 - Mitre has given up 5 runs in his last 4 starts over 28 innigs.
