Bodog props are ridiculously easy money for the most part. Unfortunately, the max bet is to win $50. This makes them a bit worthless to handicap but I like following them because they are so much fun.

ABC announced Rosie is off the View permanently. This hurts the Trump bet significantly but it helps the walk off bet significantly as well since Rosie can't walk off the set and it is no longer possible for a feud to cause a walkoff.

Looks like I was wrong. Trump couldn't help take a shot at Rosie as she left the view. However, I need to find it on a major publication before the bet is officially a win.

tmz.com:

"His Comboverness, Donald Trump, just couldn't resist taking one more swinging kick at Rosie O'Donnell on her way out the door of ABC, saying, "A great service was done by getting her off the airwaves ... she's a disaster."

Ship it. Bodog already graded it as a win.

It took Trump only 24 hours. Another Bodog free money prop for $50.

Sweet.

I remember they had Ed Rendell to win as Penn. governor at -135 vs Lynn Swan. That was friggin ridiculious.

FWIW, the sports lines are not the best. good props though, and good poker.. Stay away from the BJ though, 4 deck. shuffled every hand, LOL.

Overall the lines are bad but you can find awesome lines every day on baseball that are better than pinny or the general market, especially if you haven't been moved to the sharp lines yet. Also, their lines can be ridiculously good for one off bets like boxing and ufc. For example, Liddell was -165 bodog vs. -188 on Pinny and Parisyan was -240 bodog vs. -288 pinny.

Bodog is bad for large bettors because of their low limits. But you can definitely find great lines there.

I am freerollin the Hass. The line dropped to 100/-140 and I don't see any news. Since he didn't enter rehab last week, the line has to be somewhere between 100-150. So, -140 can't be too far off.

Although it is probably a negative EV bet, I got my arb on hasselhoff and I am freerollin +$80 on yes.

edit: added NO -140 for "Sales Tax Fairness and simplification Act". I see no momentum for this. A tax increase or perceived tax increase in an election year is very unlikely. This is a Republican introduced bill and several democrats oppose it already. The bill was also introduced and defeated 2 years ago. Plus, this is a messy subject without easy solutions.

So, this is nothing but a bill and I see the NO at -300 minimum. Of course, we all know in the poker world how silly bills get passed in the dark of night [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Note, this goes to the end of 2007. For a bet of this value and given the tiny amount I don't care if I have the money tied up that long. But, it needs to be taken into consideration.
