Hollywood reminds me of those old Avis commercials with the "WE TRY HARDER" theme. From what I read here....and from what I have experienced playing there, they are solid, their basball lines are very playable, and their customer service is superb.

And then of course, there is Will's excellent responsiveness in this forum.

But quite frankly, their website SUCKS !!!

Will, you GOTTA get a tech guy in there and clear out those cockroaches, bud. Today I logged in repeatedly and every time I entered my password to confirm my wager I got an error message saying I had timed out. And we are talking.....like 40 seconds from login to timeout here.

I did call in and get my wagers down. Then when I went to check them online, guess what....timed out right after login. Finally got in there and everything is confirmed and as it should be, but the process was very annoying.

I guess I would rather have an honest book with a crappy website than a crappy book with a first class website, but Hollywood can be both if it tries harder

Have you tried cleaning out your Temporary Internet Files?

I have the same problem with a few sites, usually stops when i erase cookies/Temp files.

Not talking about normal timeouts, but, the constant timeouts after just a few seconds in. Before you can even do anything.

Works for me most times.

Zapster and fellow posters:

We apologize for all the inconveniences you guys may have had during the last few days. We have been working on our servers, in order to assure the best service we can provide. But this down-time is part of the process; we tried to minimize the pains, but they're still part of this growing phase.

Furthermore, we'd like to advice all players that had bookmarked us, to please re-enter the complete web address in the browser. That is, type www.hollywoodsportsbook.com as the address in the browser. Once you have accessed the site, you may save it in your “favorites” again. The home page should be working fine right now; yet, we’re still monitoring the performance of the servers.

Once again fine people, please accept our apologies. We’re sure the results of this improving process might very well be worth the aggravation.

Thanks a bunch for your understanding in this matter, gentlemen.

Will

When Hollywood changes software hopefully soon they are going to be mentioned with Greek and canbet types. Only thing holding this book back is software.

I agree. The best software for parlays in my opinion is BETandWIN. Everytime you add a game it pops up on the same page and gives realtime odds. It's perfect.

Like I said, as soon as they correct this I'll play there but since I bet mostly intersport parlays, it would be stupid to play at a place that will chop my payouts every time.

Dude I believe gamebookers might have the most advanced parlay software in the world, take a look at it. You can even bet like 50 cents if short and looking to build it up.
