I am very, very disappointed that some of my favorite sportsbooks using the very, very solid and now (since the upgrade very, very fast) Unified Gaming Software such as Island, IGN, Gamblers Palace, Money Plays, Players Bet, Go To and others, have decided to terminate hockey wagering utilizing American Lines.
I have said in a previous post that they are all individually owned and operated, yet, like sheep, they follow the misinformed linesmakers decision to abandon the American lines which would definitely over the course of a season be more profitable for them, but they choose to follow what the software makers decision, without thinking what the players want and without understanding the complexities of what their ultimate profitability will be.
Since a half a puck is worth forty to fifty cents, then using the American lines which offer a half puck less at even money would net the sportsbooks 20 to 25 cents depending on how many games hit the number by the end of the season. Over the course of the season, statistical probabilities and the law of large numbers would come into effect, thus ensuring their outcome.
I am very disappointed that these books have chosen to abandon the American Lines and I am especially shocked that Island and IGN, who controls their own payouts, and is one of the oldest and well-respected of ANY book, has removed the choice that other books of their lofty stature offers.
The other stand-up books out there such as Skybook, NASA, Casablanca, Premiere, WWTS and virtually all the "real" books on the feed make you choose American or Canadian Lines at the beginning of the season and you must stick with that throughout the season.
I certainly won't be playing anymore into any books that don't offer me these lines I am used to and use exclusively.
Please guys, chime in and tell me which books offer American Puck Lines and don't make you jump through hoops (like putting on a supervisor every time you want them), and make you feel like you're absolutely nuts for wanting them.
So, please, which solid books offer American lines so I can move my funds to them.
