What big time book is a little overrated in your eyes?

Iceman · Sep 3, 2006

I like these books and they are extremely safe but it seem like CRIS and OLY are a tad overrated in my eyes.

Worthless for baseball, no reduced juice, no free half point days, etc....

The one thing is they are not afraid to take a big bet (which really don't matter to me) and CRIS has openers.

Different strokes for different folks, just can't put these 2 in my top echelon, close but next level for me.

Can anyone tell me what I am missing with these books?

1. Lines are up earlier than vast majority
2. Higher limits
3. Stability of operation
4. College hoops not afraid to put lines and totals up when others are...

Your right, it depends what you look for in a book. IF above and more does not matter then only you would know.

Not overrated they are just not useful to you.

Doug · Sep 3, 2006

CRIS and Greek are only useful for certain bets like action points, quarters, etc.

They really should rarely be used for a straight bet.

Bodog sells the sizzles too much.

err this is easy, bodog...

You can often get the best line on halves, etc at thegreek.

Cris, is basically props and sometimes a dog money line.

Bodog is seriously overrated - low limits, dual lines, etc.

VIP is way overated - you shoudl not be an A+ and boot people for winning $2000

Bodog offers me nothing and Oly sucks in baseball but does offer decent futures sometimes

Presto · Sep 3, 2006

bodog for sure. Like someone mentioned, CRIS is a good out in very limited situations, but they rip you on fractions of a dollar. Not good for small player.

No problem with the greek. I like their parlay options and layout.

Only 2000? That is unreal

from what I have head VIP uses bet trackers on their players, and when they hit a certain level of "sharpness" they get the boot no matter what the bet sizes.

Bodog.

Worst book period. High juice for normal bets and ridiculous juice on props and moneylines. I cant understand why anyone bets there. Advertising I guess.

Dont even get me started on thier poker room software which used to crash my computer about once every 2 hours when i used to play on there.

BetCris. That rounding crap is AWFUL.
