Sports Interaction?

[woodee12]

Does anyone play with this book, Sports Interaction?

Seems like a good book and they take check deposits too. I am moving some funds from a few books and I think I am going to try this one out.

It looks like BW endorses it here too.

Just curious if anyone has had any experience with them.

I won a contest and had some play money with them. Good for betting dogs as their lines favor the favs. I'm not crazy about their website interface, but it is workable. It is in Canada. Pretty good support. Strict security. Lots of betting options. They seem trustworthy.

I think Matchbook, 5Dimes and BetJam are the best.

I have an account active with them.

Very easy to deposit and withdraw from them. Need to be careful when you withdraw because the check would come in a plain white envelope that would appear to be junk mail. One time I nearly threw my check away.

Betting action:
Pros: You have the option to buy up or down points. I agree with Wide, Dog odds are better. I also discovered their "live odds" (which I know is not good but...). I wasn't paying attention to the gametime and missed placing my bet on the GB/ATL game (I was trying to place it at 5 after hour, even though kickoff was approximately 10 after the hour). So, after ATL went up 7-0, I was actually able to get GB +4.5 -120 during the game in live betting. Plus, with the NBA free view this week, I was able to get ATL ML+133 action when I was watching the game, when they were trailing SAC by 4 with 8 to go. Yes, I know, I am a glutton for punishment!
They are prompt on paying off ML and ATS wagers.

Cons: Their gametime posted for wagers are firm. If a game doesn't kickoff or tip on time, it still goes off the board (see my note about missing the GB/ATL kickoff bet). I had a delay reconciling a prop wager I had placed that actually took over 12 hours to payout. Also, it seems that their software has an issue when there is a push included in a parlay wager (yes..I know parlays are bad, but when you really really like a 3 teamer...), it took probably 15 minutes to reconcile the wager even though my ATS wager was paid off promptly.

Long story short, I do enjoy using them. I would rate them, in my opinion, A-.

I was looking for the option to buy points and they said they did not allow that? How do you do it (if you have a quick second to tell me).

Thanks for the info...I did open an account there today actually.

Woodee, buying or selling points is real easy.

Go to the sportsbook, click on the "more betting" icon for your game. Scroll down and you will see alternate spreads. Right now OK ST -4.5, but you could buy -6 @ +112. Just for example purposes.

Thanks...I see it now. Seemlike a good book so far.
Altohugh I got suckered into a live bet with A&M last noght at +17.5 which seemed like a steal at the time but lost. I have to ignore that section of the site!

I jumped in too Woodee. I like the immediate Echeck feature, and the $125 bonus not bad either. Going with Wisky -13.5 vs Indy CBB 2nite. Badgers roll at home against still up and coming Hoosier team.
