Bookmaker.EU aka "Broke Back Bookmakers"

[Line Exploiter]

I bet Oosthuizen $300 to win $6600 before the Open started, I wanted to hedge back with Day and DJ (maybe Speith)? I go to Bookmaker last night and early this morning, where they have posted "Odds to win" every day since Monday? Of course today there is nothing up for "Odds to Win" and so Im left without hedge ability? I call down there and of course at 7am Eastern there is Dribbler that has no clue what is going on in Golf! I hope Louie wins, but this is a bunch of S__T! "Where the Line originates"? Should be "Where the Shoe Cobblers work"!

 

[gsro]

Did you open with,

"Hello this is Line Exploiter?"

Just kidding,

is there a cut off time for odds to win? IE when first shot is hit do they take off all odds or do they progressively bring them down...does bookmaker have a live option? I know I saw on Bet365 you can live bet golf and play futures.

 

[Line Exploiter]

Leaders are 2 hours away from teeing off? Every other day the odds were left up til and hour before the leaders hit it off first tee! Certainly should have been up all night?

 

[gsro]

for the record:

Pinnacle does not have odds to win up and on bet 365 the only way you can get a futures bet right now would be through a live bet....


Jordan 3.5
Louie is 4.50
Day 4.5
Dunne 17
Scott 19
Rose 23

 

[Line Exploiter]

The Greek has odds up and Im talking about all night before anybody had teed off!

 

[Line Exploiter]

Would love to have Day at 4.5 to 1 as a Hedge?

Theres a huge difference between a yes/no with 36 holes to play and 18 holes to play. Also, if odds were up for yes/no on the final round they would be closed a long time before the leaders tee off, especially on a crowded leaderboard like this one

i'm not questioning the hedge, i'm just letting you know there are access to other books...

technically books are allowed to limit their risk exposure as much as they want really.

 

[Line Exploiter]

Not true Alan, Odds have been up for 1rst 2 majors at BM on last day of play long after groups have teed off!

 

[Line Exploiter]

I shoudn't have to access other Books, BM prides themselves on being the Best?

 

[Alan Tongue]

The first 2 majors didn't have 25 players within 4 shots, nor did they play in these conditions

bookmaking is about risk management. Don't complain about a book managing their risk better then you do. It takes a few keystrokes to open an account elsewhere

i'm not even sure what the point of the thread is, at first I thought you were looking for other options but it's a rant against a book.

The "best" in anything will still have short comings, everyone claims to be the best and just cause they say they are the best doesn't make them the best. (used best 5 times in this line)

Would them having day 4 odds up all night put them over the top compared to other books? Looks like B365 and Greek had those options so they are currently the best, if you're not happy with your book move on, it's simple.

[Line Exploiter]

This has nothing to do with how many players are close to the lead or risk management, someone just screwed up at BM? So what your saying is that when the ST Louis Rams were killing everybody in the 90"s in the NFL, books could just take the game off the board because of risk management?

 

[Alan Tongue]

It does

you'd think somebody that exploits lines would have more than one account so he could get best lines. Nothing stopping you opening an account at a place that offered the market. It's not cris' fault you're lazy

 

[Line Exploiter]

Not going to argue with you Alan because your missing the point! Of course I have accts in other places but I should be able to bet at BM and not have to worry about funding other accts (which is not that easy in this day and age with all the money laundering problems)! A couple years ago the Masters had high winds and a bunch of players within 5 shots of the lead, BM had the odds up all night and all day? This isn't about Risk Management, probably about a Monday finish and Management isn't at the office yet!

Im not missing the point. A bookmaker chose not to offer a market. You complained, but don't bother to bet elsewhere. Yet somehow it's the bookmakers fault. You've had 12 hours to get on, more then enough time to work a solution

 

[Line Exploiter]

Alan, do you have a boyfriend working at BM that nobody knows about? If so, is he as big a Moron as you appear to be? One more time slowly for you, This is not about risk management but more about a Monday finish that BM probably didn't prepare for this time! They accepted bets for 7 straight days during play and after play, my point is they should be open for play now!

 

[Line Exploiter]

GSRO you are correct but obviously they don't care? This is why Im pissed, they accepted bets for 7 days during play and after play? They should be open for bets on Monday morning?

Do you understand that they don't have to offer shit. If they don't want to offer a market then they won't, they are under no obligation, no bookmaker is. They can chose not to offer pre-post, not to offer live, not to offer between rounds, not to offer golf at all. I gave you a likely explanation as to why

if you don't like the way they do things take your business elsewhere. You had plenty of opportunity to do something between rounds

Also, my boyfriend and I broke up. My pleasant demeanour was too much for him

Alan is far from an idiot.

so they didn't offer it, either do something about it (bet at another book) or put up with it...why are people so keen on complaining without thinking about a solution? Your solution here would be to bet elsewhere...if you don't like how they run their business close up your account at BM and move on..you obviously like it there for a reason, dont' get sour over a futures bet where they didn't let you bet...like Alan said, you "exploit" lines and have access to a plethora of books even with the current market...Pinnacle, I know for a fact, doesn't put up these futures to lower their risk and maybe that's something BM decided to do. You'll never know what the reason is and you have a right to your opinion but do something about it man...go elsewhere or put up with it. it's straight forward, BM isn't going to read this here and say "oh no a guy named line exploiter is mad at us cause we decided not to offer something"

LOL...

 

[GWarner27]

BM would be at least my third choice for a sportsbook, no real reason to be there imo

if you need a 5d or BOL referral, holler

 

[gsro]

Louie just put himself into the playoffs, hope you hit that future.
