Please let me ask you guys a couple of questions:

Is this also being offered for 1st and 2nd halves in NFL and NCAA foots? How about quarters in NBA and NCAA hoops?

What are your limits for this -107 lineset?

Will the juice be asymmetrical or will it always be -107/-107? Where can we view these lines?

Thanks guys and good luck.

Dante · Oct 6, 2004

Walk of Life,

Our promotion applies to all pointspread sports, 1st and 2nd halves included.

The juice promotion does not apply when there is juice attached to a pointspread ( an nfl game where we are using -3 -120 for example or a halftime where we are using a price such as pk -120/ev).

Quarters are included in the promotion, but many times nfl quarters have money attached to the price.

Propositions are not included in the juice promotion.

Juice will always be -107/-107 each side except where there is a moneyline attached to the pointspread.

Juice promotion is Internet only, Phone wagering is -110.

Limits are the following:

NFL : 3k sides 1k totals
CFB : 2k sides $500 totals
NBA : 1k sides $500 totals
CBB : 1k sides $500 totals
MLB : 3k sides $500 totals

Hope this helps

107 is HUGE, baby....

welcome to the Rx. the term "promotion" sounds temporary? How long will this continue?

can you comment on your paying customers? your record for paying quickly.

Muddy · Oct 6, 2004

Would you please fix this problem with your software?

Example, if I want to win $613 on NYY at -178 the risk should be $1091.14 not $1092

WalkofLife · Oct 6, 2004

Thank you, Justin.

One last question, if I may... you posted:

The juice promotion does not apply when there is juice attached to a pointspread ( an nfl game where we are using -3 -120 for example or a halftime where we are using a price such as pk -120/ev).

I think 3 and 7 are usually the numbers where the juice is asymmetrical in NFL, so is it safe to say that the -107 will be offered almost exclusively in all the lines but 3 and 7?

Have you guys thought about the possibility of manipulating the juice on numbers like 3 and 7 as well, let me post an example to better explain myself:

Team A -3 -120
Team B +3 EV

You could always deal it like this:

Team A -3 -116
Team B +3 +102

Or, like this:

Team A -3 -123
Team B +3 +109

Any chances on something like this happening?

Thanks again

trytry,

this was our way of running a "special", if you will, for Rx posters. maybe promotion was misleading because we do not anticipate this offer ever ending. as you and others well know, this is the direction the industry is headed. so to answer your question, this is not a temporary offering. this will be our standing offer to all Rx posters.

Payouts can be processed 8am til midnight 7 days a week via neteller, and are processed as soon as your request is received.

Nighthawk,

unfortunately the software we use rounds in that manner. rest assured if you make a wager for an odd amount like that, just drop our support staff an email and the $0.86 cents will be in your account within a few minutes.

Walk,

unfortunately moving our $$ in those increments is not alway feasible, but it is a possibility.

Slash · Oct 6, 2004

Catalina,

you posted that you have $3k NFL spread limits. This is your phone limit, right?

According to your site, your internet limit is $1k, which means that -107 is only available for wagers up to $1k...

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

WalkofLife · Oct 6, 2004

Thanks a bunch for your reply, Justin...

I know it's not always feasible, but you know I had to try...:toothless

Good luck guys.

BTW, the dime limit... is it a dime a pop? Or a dime on the game?

This problem doesnt happens at WWTS
WWTS uses the same software

slash,

those limits i posted earlier are the limits in effect for this new juice promotion. those limits apply to internet wagers; phone wagers have higher limits but are at -110 due to the higher costs incurred with each call.
