I used Bovada last year for CFB and NFL and kept hearing better lines from other sites. Just can't remember which ones are the better ones. Please let me know yours. I appreciate it!

Better Lines or better odds? It appears better lines could benefit you the gambler if the line is in your favor but better odds on your play may make the change you are seeking valid. If I were you or any gambler I would advise having several reputable outlets to place your wagers with thus creating a store of lines where you can shop for value and make your wagers accordingly.

Bovada all day every day - easy payouts, I've had no credit card fraud when depositing/withdrawing, customer service helped recover a wager 'in-limbo' that I had won. & on top of it, they e-mail you free betting money (usually right before a sports season starts and with a simple rollover - so expect an e-mail this week). You are correct about the lines though but I've heard 5dimes and other European books steal your card info/ hard to get payouts sometimes.

New rewards program is awesome, I have received $80 in bonuses in the last 24 hrs, payouts through bitcoin within 48hrs, I haven't had any issues with payouts. They also have a lot of live action.

These guys are thieves. . they're Costa Rican established, so there's no regulator... if you have a dispute, you have no where to go.

They were good when I lost 7k, awesome, but when I turned it around and turned that 7k into 67k, in Sept 2018, they told me my bets were "not recreational"... WHAT?!...I never asked to increase my limits, I bet with what they gave me... I hit some parlays, and some straight bets .. and few +200, +300 plays. . problem is when I won, i increased my bets 200 to 300 to 500 to 1000

Worked up to 67k, and got my 7k deposits back and a giant F-U... horrible book...

As a matter of fact, if anyone at covers can help me, I'd be indebted, as a matter of fact id honestly donate 25% of anything recovered to covers or charity or whatever
