TELL ME IF THIS IS SO STUPID, I BET AT CALIENTE WHICH IS IN MEXICO. tHEY NEVER ALLOW YOU TO TEASE TOTALS SO OF COURSE YOU CANNOT BET THE SUPERBOWL WITH A TWO TEAM PARLEY , WITH SIDE AND TOTALS TEASED. ALSO LAST WEEKEND YOU WERENT ALLOWED TO TEASE THE TWO GAMES PLAYED . i WANTED TO TEASE GIANTS AND CHARGERS. wHEN I WENT THERE TO BET IT, THE SHEET SAID NO TEASERS. i ASKED THEM WHY AND THEY SAY BECAUSE THERE IS ONLY TWO GAMES BEING PLAYED. ALSO WHEN YOU MAKE A STRAIGHT BET BESIDES THE 10% JUICE THAT IS TAKEN OUT OF YOUR BET , THEY TAKE AN UNDITIONAL 3 % ON THE AMOUNT THAT YOU WIN. iT USE TO BE 1.5% NOW THEY ROSE IT TO 3% AS OF JANUARY 1ST. i ASKED THEM WHY ARE THEY DOING THIS AND OF COURSE THEY NEVER GIVE YOU A REASON, THEY USE TO SAY IT IS A TAX ON YOUR WINNING THAT GOES TO THE GOVERNMENT.

yes, i hate that place caliente, i have lost a lot of money there over the years, they always try to mess with you. When you make your bet, they call there supervisor, and sometimes they will move the line even before you bet. They say someone else must have bet a lot so they moved it. Sometimes i wanted to burn therte stupid sportsbook down, the y are a bunch of f*** ass*** down there,

I agree Caliente is nothing like a sportsbook in Vegas
 
They offer no props on any of the major sports only during SuperBowl time when they try to screw all the square players
 
In addition what sportsbook doesn't offer moneyline plays? Caliente doesnt
 
Wouldnt be surprised if they increased the tax to 5% in the coming years lol

i agree with all you say guys caliente sucks , but here we got a different sportsbook that is called betcima.com , there you find more plays to make more options , money lines on major sports and they only charge 1% of taxes a difference of the 4.5 that caliente charges , they are for me the worst sportsbook all around i have an account at betus and with betcima.com and you can make lots of combinations on many sports , first halves with second halves on started games and with full games practically on evrey sport you can win there but i dont really know if there is one of those near any border and they dont move the line because you want to go big on any play , they dont call no one to authorize it , you simply are free to bet as you want to. regards to all

God , Family and beer . That's all that matters

Mexico corrupt? They don't who knows!

Where as in the good ole U.S.A (which i'm born and raised) they do a great job hiding it.

I'll say it is not, just because they charge you the extra pct. of taxes everytime you cash in. It's like playing -114 lines while you can get them at -110 in most books, making extremely hard to win that way.

Except like 4 years ago when they were accepting correlated parlays, the easiest money I ever made, too bad good things won't last forever and they stopped taking those bets (after they got hammered of course). I recommend you using BetCris, it is a much more respectable Sportbook with some agencies in Mexico or online playing.
