Bovada customer service was useless. They claimed there are "no restrictions" on my betting limits, which is totally false. My props have been restricted for 3 years.

Got a supervisor.

When I asked for my NBA limits, they gave me some nonsense answer about how it's market area determined (which is false).

Supervisor checked with "the sportsbetting team" who told her, "He was told of his limits in 2016", and that was it. That's not true. All they told me in 2016 was that my props were degraded to $25 max. Besides, up until this season, my NBA limits of $500 were fine.

She denied there was a way to speak to someone above her, which is also false (I've done it tons of times before). Claimed that I was just "confused" when I claimed to have spoken to upper managers in the past.

Hung up on her and gave up.

I guess I'll get the truth tomorrow if I try to place another NBA bet there.

BTW I had to accept an inferior 221.5 line on BOL because I couldn't make the Bovada 222 bet, and the game is super close (totals wise).

Right now it's projected to finish at 222.

If this screws me, I'm gonna be so pissed.

You took that down pretty easily

Speaking of dead sports book owners.... Didn’t Calvin Ayre sink a majority of his fortune into Bitcoin Cash a year or two ago?

He was a nutty evangelist for that format for some reason.

That had to leave a stain

Appreciate your Bovada trip report. Good luck.

Some basketball futures I forgot to post earlier. Paid A LOT of juice on some of them. Whatever, it is what it is.

That Charlotte come from behind win game 1 could come back to haunt me. Also, WTF is going on with Butler?

I'll have to try this place next time I'm there.

I'll skip the stairwell blow jobs by other dudes for dessert, though.

In NBA, I'm 3-0 in unders and 0-1 in overs. No spread picks yet.

Let's change that.

NY at Brooklyn - OVER 229.5
Phoenix at Denver - OVER 220 (219.5 -112 at Betonline right now, as I write this)

Update on Bovada:

Yes, the fuckers demoted me to $50 on spread/totals bets. Unbelievable.

However, it's not a full demotion. Anything more than that gets put through a brief "approval" process where they decide whether to take it or not.

Yesterday my $550 to win $500 on Detroit under was rejected.

Today, my $275 to win $250 on NY over was accepted.

I think the difference is that overs are assumed by Bovada to be public, and unders sharp, so I'm guessing they will be more willing to accept my over action, which is stupid, but that's my theory at the moment.

The whole thing is stupid though. They must really think highly of my abilities to be restricting my straight NBA betting. I only wish I were really that good. What idiots.

Defense sucks and have a lot of scoring but they seem to start slow quite a bit.

was able to get down on the over VGK/COL 2P live and hedge it out for a free 1/2 unit so not too bad...

this shit is fucking crack cocaine...

Rut roh indeed.

Let's just say I'm mad at myself because I misread some numbers which caused me to pick Phoenix over, when in reality, had I read everything properly, I would have either skipped it or gone Phoenix under.

I don't regret the other pick. Just scoring died at the end of the 4th from bad shooting.

Laughably even OT isn't saving me with the Phoenix pick (which just occurred), where it will still surely lose unless we see 2OT.

Just came back from the Nets Knicks game where there were 15 traveling calls combined and Knicks couldnt hit a free throw in the 4th quarter. What a shitshow of a game.

Up 3 with thr ball and 1:20 left and still lose? Ugh, gonna be a loooong season.

Tell me about it. If even some of that shit didn't happen, I'd have won that over pick.

The Knicks are again honestly one of the most fail organizations in sports in the 2000s, if you look at what they've spent versus what they had to show for it.
