In years gone bye, if you were a contrarian bettor, you could always count on SIA, Bodog, and when they accepted USA customers, Canbet. to almost always have the number you were looking for and were great outs.

I always recommended the above for any serious sports bettor. But things seemed to have changed. Even though I still use Bodog and SIA, I just don't find the lines I'm looking for, and if I do, there's plenty of juice attached to the line. They both used to move their lines on what the public was betting, and you could get a fix on who they were playing just looking at their lines. And if you're looking for a "Nevada rotation" at either one of them, FORGEDABOUDIT!!! They seem to have their "own" rotation based on when the games start, rather than following the "normal" rotation. I guess it's OK for those looking for what games are going off soon, but if you're looking for a certain # like 321, you might find it five games above 318.

One thing is nice that Bodog does, and that is to have the current scores of games that have already started. Sometimes they are even faster with scores than CBS Sportsline or even ESPN and Yahoo.

Guess we'll just have to learn to live with it, but it sure was a lot easier to bet there in the "old" days!!

SIA would NOT pay me and i am still weary whether or not i will get my funds. They also banned me for winning too much apparently. That gravy train was nice while it lasted. Maybe i'll hit up bodog now.

I've never heard of any problems with SIA NOT paying. Talk to a mod.

I didn't have a problem with Sia paying me. They cut a check I got in the mail took about 5 business days. I'm pretty sure they had no idea I am a mod here; they simply just conducted business in an admirable fashion.

Don't complain if they can't pay you instantly or cut you off. It's the way things are. Sia 's lines are unique, incredible and is their customer service.

It's been many many years, never once ever heard of anyone having a problem with SIA. Anybody and everybody who has not played there?! You ARE missing out.

Sorry Rob, but you most CERTAINLY should complain if they can't pay you instantly. I have no problem with any book cutting anybody off - it's a business decisions, i get that. But if you can't pay - damn straight the world SHOULD know about it.
