Just want to give a plug for a sportsbook I enjoy playing at. Had been away from them for awhile (ignorance on my part) and forgotten what a good book they are. Just thought I would pass it on. Nice numbers can be found in baseball with their 10 cent lines. Good luck batposters.

Hollywood,

A great book and though it seemed they struggled early in the FB season when Fernando was getting back in the swing I would consider them a top out. The numbers are original and the money is solid.
Just so people know, Fernando was a top book for many years in NY before legal problems forced him out of the industry. It was a great move by Hollywood to get him back running a solid book.
Good Luck to All

Also some of THE BEST and most helpful customer Service reps of any book.

Still have never heard one single complaint about Hollywood.

Cut and past from Hollywood's website...


SF Giants -123
Expos +103
Mets -130
Pistons +6
Spurs -4.5
Mavs +5

Lay/Get : 10/406


What it *should* be: 10/445

How much % they STEAL from the player: 8.6%

* * *

Just because I bet stupid parlays doesn't make me stupid. I check the odds every time to make sure they are correct. Absolutely inexusable. The posted odds are not the payout odds. As soon as they correct this, I'll start playing there again. If they don't, I won't.

Bowmans did. Their parlay odds are now accurate, and they use the same software. So don't blame the IQ whatever thing for it. You might as well just go into people's balances and take out money. It's the same thing.

Dell,

Gotta hand it to you. You show a side of gambling that we do not see that much. Thanks

Hollywood is very tough. Highly praised here.

Good job Hollywood

Good afternoon gentlemen:

This thread was brought to my attention by Fernando himself. Those of you who know the man and the principals of our company, will understand how little we appreciate to have a weak flank over something that does not form part of our way of conducting business. We figured the situation has its root in the fact that the software we're using, does NOT carry decimal figures. In correlated plays, such as parlays the outcome seems to be affected greatly. We are not doing this intentionally, as a matter of fact we're looking that this situation gets straightened out as soon as possible.

We can put ourselves in your shoes, and you're right. This doesn't look pretty. And if it upsets you, you can only imagine how this is NOT making our day. We apologize, to you or to any other customer that has seen his action affected by this inconvenience. We are working to get this fixed A.S.A.P. In the mean time, if anyone deals with a similar situation, please take a minute of your time to call us. We'll emend any err.

BTW, the fact that you mention Bowman's had the same mistake and it's now fixed, creates a precedent. We now know, we can have this done by the software company, soon enough.

Thanks a bunch for your time and attention, gents.

P.S.: if any of you guys feels like you need a little spanking, try Fernando's lines. He IS the Spank Daddy, baby...

This posters, is how a professional sportsbook responds in a public forum. Hollywood just went up another notch in my book.

I've said it before and I'll say it again- the only book to have ever called me to say after reviewing my play, an error occured in my favor and would be credited to my account. Years here and never even the smallest problem... A+
