CEO'S CORNER Sonny Roberts, CEO; Jaguar Sports International E-Syndicated Columnist
( Note from Bettorsworld: Jaguar Sports is a solid organization offering an unusually strong incentive package of ongoing bonuses, high parlay odds, an exclusive airline mileage award program and low deposit/wagering minimums. They can be reached at jagbet.com or 1-888-888-9984). A Five Week Report October 2, 2000
Isn't life sweet? I guess it depends on what side of the lollipop you are looking from.
Baseball 2000 is almost over and Jaguar Sports is holding 8.2% against handle (over the past five weeks of combined football/ baseball / miscellaneous props). And, one of Jaguar's very first ( and very loyal ) customers finished out the baseball regular season yesterday by hitting his third winning 8 team parlay this year, this time for an $83,164 score. And yes… he did call for a "money out" today.
On Saturday 9.30.00, we went 10 and 0 on those college games with the largest stands. It was one of those dandy Dog Day afternoons for shops like ours that had 80% or more of its' customers laying the wood. The score was evened out a bit on Sunday when everyone but the Pope and Pete Rose got down on the Rams.
And, since the best five month hold performance (September through superbowl) in our 7 year history is 5.4%, Jaguar is also bracing for the inevitable lean weeks to come in the very near future.
This year, Jaguar decided on a more aggressive marketing campaign to attract internet players, cautious newcomers, and more conservative gamblers. It has been a hugely successful campaign with more new customers signed up during these first five weeks than all of last year. And, to better service this new business, we made a change in our wagering limits, resulting in a benefit to both the house and our customers, which is not an easy accomplishment. Our long standing policy had been pretty much to take any bet on an NFL side up to the customers account balance. Part of that policy by the way was, I admit, a macho thing, you know, the " This is the NFL… come and bet it " attitude.
The largest customers, representing a small percentage of our active customer base on any given game, provided 50% of the volume. This meant that Jaguar was often in the business of gambling with a few customers, especially when they all came down on the same side, while grinding out a small but steady living from everyone else.
This also required that we move the lines to discourage ( and alternately) encourage certain customer wagering for book balancing purposes. Some customers then found themselves laying ( or taking) less desirable lines while Jaguar's hold percentage suffered due to the artificially stimulated influx of money from line shoppers and professional wagering houses buying back the short side. We decided to do something about it in anticipation of a strong response to our new customer incentive program.
Our year 2000 limits ($5,000 on sides and totals, $2,000 on everything else) and $10 internet / $25 phone minimums, are designed to protect the house and reward our preferred customers with a steady line, right up through kickoff. And, it discourages the "steam' player who usually posts up at least $50,000 wanting at least a $10,000 limit. The final straw was that Jaguars' bonus policy of 20% on the initial deposit and 10% thereafter, meant to encourage and benefit the newer or more casual player, was being abused.
When all is said and done, our thousands of customers enjoy Jaguars ongoing bonuses ( 20% new accounts, 10% thereafter), the ( really, go check it out ) highest parlay odds in the business, and our other consumer incentives ) along with a steady wagering line.
If you have $50,000 or more to deposit, want to wager $10,000 or more per game, and are unsure of finding a safe out, feel free to call us for a recommendation. There are several good choices and we know who is safe and who may not be.
Also, as I have noted before, the best reason to choose a book other than Jaguar is if you are predominantly a teaser player. There are a few sound books that do in fact beat our two team teaser prices of 110; 115; and 120 for 6; 6 ½; and 7 pointers. Again, feel free to call us for a recommendation.
If you want to be part of the wagering community that brings Jaguar back to earth ( and the predictable year to date 5% hold), give us a call. Maybe you just want to change your luck….and get a 20% signup bonus plus 14:5 on two teamers 24/7. We'd love to hear from you.
Sonny Roberts.
P.S. We really got it stuck to us in the Oct 2 Monday night game. (The game, the over, and a million parlays on both ).
