Oddswiz.com NEW FEATURES

[Jeff]

The ability to arrange books in any order is finally here. It won't be *officially* available until probably Monday, however any users who would like to get a head start and check out the new feature just shoot me an email and I'll give you a link.

Jeff@oddswiz.com

Also, we will be adding at least 3 new books over the next week or so (work is in progress).

I don't like to give the names of the books until they are operational, however two of the three are linked above.

We are very sorry that Pinnacles lines are no longer available on the feed. Many of you have written inquiring as to why this is so. We feel we owe an explanation.

We obviously wanted to keep them up, as so many of the users use Pinnacle, and Pinnacle really wanted to stay on board. However a conflict with Don Best Sports would not allow for them to remain on both feeds.

I'd like to remind the players that if you would like to see a particular books lines on the oddswiz feed, make sure you tell them so.

We are more than happy to post any books numbers.

Books feel free to email me at jeff@oddswiz.com to come aboard.

Many new features in the works. Thanks for the support! Spread the word!

If I owned a sportsbook, I'd want my lines to be displayed at as many sites as possible, to get the best advertisement. If one site wanted to insist on being exclusive, I'd probably pass it up in favor or a larger, more broad distribution.

Pinnacle is still on the tip-ex feed. Wouldn't that also be a conflict with DB?

[Jeff]

No conflict there because tipex is in html format. A web page.

Ours is a java applet capable of delivering the odds in real time from the books keyboard to your screen. No refresh/reload necessary.

So, Don Best views our program as direct competition.

It's a shame too, because I essentially bent over backwards to accomadate all parties. I offered to delay Pinnacles lines up to 2 minutes so as not to ruffle any feathers or step on any toes.

I'm guessing the only way to do things IS to ruffle feathers and step on toes...

What's that saying? Nice guys finish last?

I've got alot more to say on the subject......when I get a chance.

SPORTSHOBBY -

You hit the nail on the head. Eventually, that's exactly what will happen. No business, be it a sportsbook or an ice cream store, wants to be told what to do by a 3rd party.

A sportsbooks lines are their product. That's what they sell. Numbers. Not wanting to sell your numbers is like a shoe store not wanting to sell shoes.

Onward and upward!

[ShiftySheik]

Don Best displays Pinnacle's telephone lines. Oddswiz displayed Pinnacle's web site lines with the lower juice. There really wasn't any conflict since each service was displaying different numbers.

new feature in place

You can now arrange the books in any oder. Simply log on, and click settings.

Highlight the book you want to move, then simply use the up and down buttons.

When you get the books where you want them, just click save and you're all set.

Each time you log on the books will be in that order.

[sportshobby]

COOL! For me this is the upgrade that really makes the difference as to useability. I plan to make it part of my regular routine, and to open accounts with more of the sportsbooks on the feed.

Time could be running out!

Awesome

Great feature . . . I was gonna suggest it, but thought of it as a "wish list" item.

carib's hockey lines

The hockey lines shown for Carib are very confusing, can something be done about this?

[Jeff]

Thanks for the heads up Carp. It's a display problem. Will fix it asap.

Jeff,

Haven't looked at this yet - you showing halftimes etc.? And this works like Don Best where books have to send their info, as opposed to tip-ex etc. which are just webcrawling and reading the latest info from sites?

AV

[Jeff]

Halftimes are available currently from 3 books. We'll implement more as we go.

Log on and give it a try. It's free.

[AussieVamp2]

Ok. Going to undercut Don Best price in the future then?

Not being a dodgy wiseguy, not interested in paying for these at all of course.

[SÅTAÑ ¤]

I think one more feature you need to add is flashing line moves of greater than 1 point in basketball!
