Bodog bias

guychance · Dec 3, 2007

They have different lines for different customers. I had my friend log into his account and he is getting getting a different team total.

All they want is a bunch of stupid squares..You win a little from them and they turn on their software to screw you...

I will close that account soon. I advise whomever not to use them because you don't know if you're getting cheated..

I have asked this and heard that they profile....

just be aware of how they do this and use them to your advantage when the opportunity arises

Yes, we all know they deal dual lines...maybe more, heh.

Plenty of books profile players. The trick is to take advantage of value where you find it. Every line has two sides. If a game is -4.5 consensus and you get read -6 at Bodog or anywhere else than you have a bargain staring you in the face. Bodog day in and day out will shade chalk which makes them a valuable out for the savvy dog player.

No one is getting cheated as long as you can have either side of the line they offer you.

I was pissed because I tried to confirm the play and then the line changed on me after they knew what I wanted to place.

I was on the phone with my friend and he said his line never changed. It is one thing to post lines which is profiled against one player but to changed it during confirmation is almost fraud.

Ya, I had the option not to take the new line but this is a new low for the industry. Anyhow, I will get several more outs...

I honestly think you were just unlucky and got jobbed on the line movement....if they are really skimming .5 from you doing this they will go down fast as a sportsbook

betjamaica will do this to you as well if you start to beat them bad enough. if you call the plays in they usually wont move the line against you. you should try that next time
