Was very happy to see that MJ's picked up Bodog. They are one of my favorite books. They have good lines, good service, payout speed could be better, but they have good bonuses too.
A welcome to Bodog

what is so good about 20 cent totals in mlb?
what is so good about a $500 mlb limit unless you call them?
why do they take forever for a cashout?
whats so good about no overnight baseball lines?
if sports betting is a hobby and you are gonna bet like 100 bucks here and there and like to bonus whore, then maybe the place is okay. If you are trying to make money and get the best possible odds, then good luck with bodog.
edit to delete something that shouldn't be public knowledge becuase i like jack

BDB: I don't care about totals, don't play them anymore.
The limits are 1000 online, I don't play huge money like you. I average 300-500 per game, so it fits me fine. Plus I play a lot of underdogs so their juiced up lines help.
On the payouts, there are same day 10 hours or so. Not as quick as wsex, jamaica, etc
I don't bonus whore, but 20% with 5x rollover is pretty good to me.
And I don't care about overnight lines, I wait to make my bets, gotta see all the input from outstanding cappers like yourself...

maybe you are so "sharp" that you have to call in or something.
There halftime lines have been great to me, they get a lot of squares and for basketball or football, they can't be beat for halftimes
Get a lot of + money halftimes

I guess my post came off as arrogant. Wasn't meant to be that way. Nor was it meant to be offensive, but I think people need to hear both sides of every story.
Chump you personally not playing totals doesn't concern me. The fact is that their totals are still 20 cent lines when there are plenty of other great books that are out there. They also have 15 cent lines on tonights games when i can get 8 cents at pinnacle. The choice is obvious.
I haven't even looked at their book in some time, so before my original post i went and checked, and sure enough their limits are $500 for internet wagers in their terms and conditions.
10 hours for a payout is still long when pinn or oly and plenty others put it in your neteller within minutes.
I do understand your point on underdogs though as they move on action and are as square as it gets. they never take a stance and you can get some good dog lines there i suppose solely because they move on action.
For your circumstances, I'm sure they are just fine. I just think that there are plenty of other books out there that are better that are on jacks sponsored list. Lets take tonight for example:
you are a dog bettor. Lets fictionally place a dime on each game tonight on the dog.
At pinnacle I'm risking 2000 to win 3170
At bodog I'm risking 2000 to win 3100
thats a difference of 70 bucks. No big deal right? wrong. whatever bonus you get off of them is taken away by their 15 cent lines on games over -150. So hypothetically after depositing 2k and receiving a 400 bonus, in 5 days that bonus is gone not because I used it, because I lost 400 in bad lines. (not bad, but not 8 cents) and why wouldn't i want the lowest juice. The difference between 8 cents, and 15 or 20 cents over the course of a season is astronomical. Coudl be an extra 5k in your pocket or saved you an extra 5k.
I guess it all depends in what you look for in a book. Wasn't a knock on you chump, just an honest assessment. If people don't care about their money and shop for best lines, than that is their perrogative, but I want the most bang for my buck and i'm gonna search high and low to find it.

gl to you
I agree with you on a lot of that. I wish their payouts were a little quicker. I have received them in a few hours, but mostly it's 4-6pm if requested the night before or that morning.
I love getting a neteller payout in 15 minutes from jamaica or wsex or bowmans. It'd be nice if all the books were instant, just deposits are.
For baseball they may not be as good as pinny and others, but for football and basketball, they rock.
I've played many 2nd halfs there and won because of an extra 1/2 point or had a better payout cause of +110 or +115 compared to Pinny and the others.
Line shopping is huge and they are a good dog out.
I enjoy your posts in the baseball forum, good insights. gl
