How come I can't parlay a team and total from the same NFL game?

How come I can't parlay a team and total from the same NFL game?  

Many books disallow it since it's a correlated parlay. It's better in the NCAA since a line may be -36 with a total of 48. If there's a blowout cover, it most likely goes over.

Some books use a 25% rule, others 30% rule. If the spread is less than 25/30% of the total, they will allow it.

Ah, really only ever encountered that outside of the US. I've always been able to parlay NFL games, i.e games with spreads. Not being able to parlay games with puck, run, goal lines etc is standard though.

DirectBet- NFL season is getting ready to heat up. Lots of players start depositing at this time. I hope that we can reconcile before this time.

Keep your poll up. I don't care. I've been around the forums since 2003 and owned a couple of sites. Reagan's been around since 2003.

You have no experience, no idea what you are talking about when it comes to gambling or book making. Posters can decide on the validity of the ratings. If they knew Reagan, they wouldn't question them.

High rated books haven't gone under, but the low rated books have gone under and warnings were given.

DirectBet- Who the hell are you to dictate terms? Do you think that you are a threat to any of the big books? You're a two man shop with the worst live lines in the business. DirectBet has a little niche that most likely will be swallowed up by someone bigger.

Your character assassination attempts mean nothing to me. I listen to other posters, but do you think that anything you post bothers me at all? The ratings are just a loose guide. Every player is looking for something different.

DirectBet - Care to take a look at why I was scummed by your ridiculously long bet confirmation system twice within three minutes?

Two separate bets on the Sigma FC vs Masters FA game, both bets I sent doge before goals were scored, both times your system took too long to confirm and betting got suspended before you accepted my bet. So your lacklusture systems probably cost me 25k DOGE this time.

For the NFL spread bets:

Nitrogen -105/-105 and this includes totals.
DirectBet -116/-116 . Not only this, but it breaks immediately. It's impossible to beat this line long term.


DirectBet has the worst NFL lines of all bitcoin and fiat books and by a good margin pre-game. If things continue as is, you'll get shut out of a lot of NFL live bets. It's much better to deposit if you plan on betting the NFL live since the confirmations are quicker.

DirectBet

Miami +2.5pts @ +110
Atlanta -2.5pts @ -147.1
Under/Over 37.5pts
Under 37.5pts @ -125.0
Over 37.5pts @ -115.0

NFL preseason Mia/Atl total. Nitrogen also has alt lines in the preseason. Just continuing to show the many reasons why DirectBet isn't on par with the "A" and "B" books.

Nitrogen:   100/-110 best or equal to lowest vig of all BTC and fiat books with the exception of 1 shaky fiat book.
Anonibet: -105/-118, up to 10% rebate on losses.
BetCoin:   -116/-120, has a bonus
Casinobit: -116/-120
DirectBet: -118/-125.

DirectBet isn't on par with the "A" and "B" books.

Not sure who these "a" and "b" people are, but DirectBet officially has the 2nd highest rating by members of this forum out of the 18 different betting sites that received votes. (The person collecting member votes did not receive any payments/bribes from any of the books, therefore would be the most official rating thread on the forum.)

They were #9 until DirectBet brought in a lot of new posters giving DirectBet top votes. If you look at other rating sites, DirectBet is never near the top.

I have nothing against Ryan, and it's good to have multiple rating sites, but bitcoinlivebets was #3 until they went under stealing player's funds. We had a different view point.

bitcoinlivebets is a very shaky book. They have problems on almost a daily basis and automation is never fully working. Each person has different reasons for playing at a book. I think that bitcoinlivebets is at the top of the list of the next book to go under although I hope it's not the case.

Actually, he receives payments from all of them. Any link at the rating page is an affiliate link. Regarding DB scores, it is obvious that most of them came from shill accounts.

[Rating Place]

I'm trying to find Ryan's ratings prior to DirectBet bringing in the shills. I copied this at one point but the quote stopped w/o all the books. DirectBet was #7. I do like Ryan's guide because it is poster generated but can be tainted by shills.

I investigated your bets. In both of them a goal was scored before the bets were received \ processed.

When betting LIVE in-play during soccer games please note that if you're watching the game on TV or through the Internet you're seeing it in a delay. Our automated betting system knows that a goal was scored before you actually see it on TV. It may appear to you that you have placed your bet before the goal was scored, but you may have actually placed it after the goal was scored.

Also, it does take a few seconds from the time that you send your bet to the time it is received and processed. While this is not instant, note that other Sportbooks force a betting delay anyhow when you bet in-play. This is done in order not to give an unfair advantage to those who are betting in-play while physically presenting in the game.

The few seconds it takes for your bet transfer to arrive and process is equivalent to such in-play delays that are forced anyhow by other books.

If after reading the above explanation you're still unsatisfied, please PM me and we'll work it out.
