Which do you prefer: low vig books or books that offer a nice bonus?
I would prefer both  but prefer low vig books.  |

Take the low vig everytime...bonuses can be a real hassle with rollover requirements

I choose both. I always have an account at Pinny but I will take a bonus and wait for the loose line or special perk days.

If you do not post up over $1000 a bonus is not worth it

i still question that one though JJ. i guess it depends on how much you bet a game, to see if it's truely worth it.

Good point Danny
I do not think $20 players find a bonus useful

$20 players are the type of people that love bonuses JJ. players like ourselves could care less if we get a bonus or not.

John, after losing to your locals on a weekly basis, i can see why you look for the bonuses  |

It depends. If I could only have one book, it would probably be Pinnacle for the low juice.
But if the question is about what kind of book I would like right now to add to what I've already got, I'd say give me a big fat, lazy bonus.

Low vig at Pinny. Occassionally dump some into Bodog to get the bonus if I see a dog I like at a good price.

Low juice easily. Pinny and Mansion, maybe now Cascade. I play a lot of bonuses and have used many shops just for the bonus. Call me a whore, but I bite on those big bonus offers often, if the shop doesn't have too horrible a reputation.
I play dog at bonus shop and fav at good shop, not looking for side value just a close line usually ( less vig). I want quick in and out at questionable book. I always manage to do it and avoid long holds, etc. It helps if I like the game, but I want out quick and let the lines guide me.
