question about CRIS

bzbwoy · Oct 29, 2004

I am seriously considering posting up with Cris. i know they are a solid shop and i really like their setup, but if one had to say, what would you say you least like about that shop?

They will sometimes put you on hold for awhile. Like 5-10 minutes.

If you are looking for sleepy numbers CRIS might not be for you. They book some sharp players and are quick as any book to move numbers. On the other hand if you cap your own stuff you can find plenty of value if your numbers go against the so called wise guy moves.

CRIS is a must have shop. Everyone that is looking for diverse lines and various props, etc. will love them. They come up first, and pay like a slot.

Like others have said , many options, I have nothing but great things to say about them, I like them alot...

One small thing, I have trouble sometimes making qtr wagers , as the line jumps around so fast ...Everytime I go to confirm the play I get a error message saying the line moved..It cost me 2 dimes last week, as I was unable to re-enter the bet before it went off the board....this happens alot, as the line jumps around very quickly..

Withdrawal fees

Their Neteller withdrawal fees are ridiculous. I've never understood the allure of Cris. I consider them (along with WWTS) to be the most overrated books out there. What can one get at Cris (and thus justify the fees) that they can't get elsewhere?

Picasso, that' easy. Earliest numbers. They'll take up to $5k online on Sunday night NCAA openers. Pinny has been getting their numbers out earlier the last couple of weeks, but only take up to $1k online until Monday.

There are 'other' ways to withdraw for much less then Neteller or WU with them...

What time does Cris post NCAA openers? Pinnacle has been posting them on Sunday afternoons lately (totals too).

BigGame · Oct 30, 2004

Using this past Sunday as a reference, if I remember correctly, Pinny's were out around 5:45-6:15pm, and Cris' were out by about 7:30pm.

I can personally attest to this sportsbook. I won a fairly good sized contest sponsored by Cris last year at another site. I called them on a Wednesday and recieved my cash via Fed-Ex on Friday. I have nothing but good things to say about them.

I had a good season about 2 years ago and they still let me bet there, but they won't give me any bonuses to this day although on a number of occassions they said they would. Overall they're pretty good.

BZ,Cris has always been one of my favorite books. No complaints here.

bzbwoy,

You really can't do much better than CRIS. This is a no frills, all business type of sports book that knows how to book, period...

I can't think of anything I don't like regarding their payouts and other stuff...

Just don't get me started on them pulling the plug with Pinnacle, lol...

I dropped CRIS because of their Neteller withdrawal fees ($30-$60).
