I still don't know why everyone keeps touting this shop as their top Book. What because they pay. So what, so does everyonne else. Sure I like Oly and have an account there, but the best shop. Like Kermit says $.20 cent baseball line. come on get with the times. I find I make less and less plays there on a day to day basis, most of there lines are pretty standard. When you have shops like Skybook and there half point and Millenium with a free half point on Fridays, reduced juice at Pinny, different lines like Cascade and Royal, I don't see it. Good shop . but not at the Top like everyone raves about
Red Eye
Not everyone pays timely off shore and besides a 20 cent line during baseball season what else don't they offer? Early lines and the most props and great website. Sure Betcris and OLympic lose some bettors with a 20 cent baseball line on sides but those 15 lines a day max don't wipe out the other 95% service they both offer year round that keeps them both in my Top 5.

There lines on every sport they have is pretty much standard. If you have between 5 to 8 outs , most likely the Shop you would play less at is Olympic. I know I do and I have Olympic. Trust me, I'm trying to always get myself the best deal, whether its the line or the juice, and if you have 5 to 8 outs thats not going to be Olympic. I take advantage of there props from time to time, but you throw everything together in my Mind Olympic falls a little short on what i want out of a shop. Real good shop but not the Best. Its a little hardewr to win thereAquatic said:
I really don't understand why every book listed except for Pinnacle is listed as a Pass as most top books have 10 cent lines. I certainly don't want to imply that Oly is not a good book. However I was responding to the comment that this is what sets Oly apart from all the rest ! One of the things that sets Oly apart from most of the other top books is their 20 cent baseball lines plus I am not impressed with most of the odds they give on futures. If getting the earliest line up is the most important thing for you, then they are tops but I really can't name anything else in which they are the tops in ?Aquatic said:
Olympic is one of those Books like Carib that had the great reputation and they have decided to sit on their laurels. In the meantime, there have been all kinds of solid books like Pinny, Skybook, Hollywood,Betmill, Canbet, Sportsbetting.com, WWTS That are offering more and are gaining in popularity. I don't see Oly sponsoring any contests either. They pay... so do all these other books too but with better odds on futures and lower vig rates, there is more $$ for us to collect on. I think that more and more smart bettors will take their action elsewhere and force Oly to quit sitting on their laurels and reduce their vig rate on baseball and offer more to the wagering public. I have an account with them but seldon find anything exciting to wager on that I can't beat elsewhere.
Kermit, how can you even mention Betmill in the same breath as Olympic?
I don't even know where to start to shout you down on that score.
Come football season, Olympic have the most original props and futures and alot of the other books use them as the 'tissue' early in the week. Bodog copy them embarrassingly.

Well, start shouting ! Betmill offers free 1/2 points on football on Friday and that 1/2 point also applies to totals I only use Betmill for the 1/2 point but it is very useful. My point is this. A person should have numerous books that give him an advantage. That's why I keep Millennium ! I have already told you as has Red Eye...... I see very few futures or props at Oly that I can't beat elsewhere. Tell me about a future right now that they have the best odds on ? The sooner people wake up to the fact that Oly is a 20 cent baseball book and offers no bonuses or sponsors no contests and all in all is just sitting on their laurels, the sooner they will be forced to get with the program. Top 5 ? Barely in my top 10 as I can't find any reason to use them because I can better their action almost anywhere.copacabana said:
