You must not use either of the services.


I wouldn't worry about it Mike... He would disagree with anyone on here just to do it...pretty much his M.O.

Anyone that uses your service Knows it stacks up with DB :cheers

Re: AK talks about don best vs gjupdate

Personally I think 'Stacks Up' is an understatement. We have faster injuries, accurate over-night pitching changes, and truer wiseguy moves to name a few. The line changes are the same, so thats a wash. What else are you getting for $650 a month, or have they gone up to 700 yet?

Been using Don Best since 1994. For the player and book alike, it's a must. GJ can not compete with them. They are trying, but are a long way off.

Ask around, talk to the books, they are subscribe to DB as well. GJ I think is a great start for the recreational player, but for the Pros its DB all the way.

Accept no substitutes.
 
Re: AK talks about don best vs gjupdate

OK, Ask Shrink, or any book you deal with. I know the answer is DonBest. GJ is just not to thier level yet.

Dirty,

Call all the books you deal with and see for yourself. I guarantee they are using DonBest on thier stage.

I have used Both, and I can honestly say that DB is Not better and even worse in some areas... So Just because the books use something that has been around for years means it is better :+clueless:+clueless :whatever:

The reason they use it is because people don't like change, they stick with what they know, and other reasons that are not talked about....:cheers:cheers

Re: AK talks about don best vs gjupdate

Shrink,

Do you subscribe to DB or GJ? In the past when you were wagering real money, what service did you use?

No offense Mike, but DB is the choice of the Pros, not to say someday your service might not be, but it aint yet.

Keep working on it.

Re: AK talks about don best vs gjupdate

Having been fortunate enough to use both for long periods and comparing products and price, GJUPDATE is all MOST of us guys would possibly need. I do understand that some people don't have to worry about cost (money).

IMO, An even better observation is DB is all corporate now whereas GJUPDATE is still a smaller friendly (seemingly mom n pop business) and common man type organization. I suggest them both if you can afford, but for the price GJUPDATE is your best buy me thinks.

ASKMEA?, there is NO conflict whatsoever in which dirty cannot share his HONEST feelings about GJ and DB. I know DB used to raise hell when we said things good about GJUPDATE, but we don't get that attitude from GJUPDATE.

Re: AK talks about don best vs gjupdate

I will take constructive criticism all day long. I am a big boy. But these baseless claims are ridiculous. I used to (and you can view this by posts here and elsewhere) say that both services where needed. I am a straight shooter. And here is my honest opinion now:

DB is an over-rated unimportant product now. They are slow to injuries, have bad pitching information, and are over priced. They are a corporation who has pushed out all of the remaining people who knew anything about how bookmaking worked. And they are losing money so fast they are even trying to dump the company. Look it up in the releases that they are obligated to put out being a publicly traded comapny.

So I am waiting, objectively speaking... how is DB better?

No need to for me. I know linemanagers in everyone of those shops. They may be using it, but it's in addition to Donbest. Like I said you guys have come a long way, just got more work to do thats all.

Yeah you got me Mike. Hey ask Mr Loman what he uses would ya. Or Shrink for that matter.

OK, been awhile since I even looked at your site. But in the past the Books on DB had your beat handsdown. The DB software was much more productive, ect, ect.

Hey Mike relax, I am sure the recreational market has its upside. Enjoy.

I am fine. I was just wondering if you have anything objective to say at all, or if you were going to keep using a blanket statement. I have no interest in fighting with shill, and you obviously cant come up with 1 solid reason to support your claim that DB is better than GJ. And on top of that you now admit that its 'been awhile' since you have even looked at the GJ product. I am guessing you have never used it, and have some agenda in promoting DB. But I have been wrong in the past, I am just waiting for one tiny little factor that makes DB (a $650? product) better than GJ (a $350 product).

So your saying Con Best hasn't tried to Strong arm the Books into staying strictly with them....Then you need a reality check.....

I am objective and have no reason not to speak the truth. I always email GJ with issues if I have one and get a prompt reply....not true when I used Don Best...they could care less... Once people realize what is out there and the truth then they will change or Give GJ a try...

It is common Knowledge that DB is on the Block because Liberty Media is being forced to sell them because of their Acquisition of the Braves. They are a corporate run entity now that only cares about Bottom line, not their Customers:bank:

From DB's site:

http://www.donbest.com/website/images/premium_odds_big.jpg

wonder when the last time they got a change fromt he dust... You are obviously a shill, I have no need to argue with you. I will be the first to say our website sucks... It has no bearing on our professionaly product what-so-ever.

If you can come up with an actual argument, and not a baseless claim, I will be happy to discuss the matter further with you.

$650, I dont know anyone paying that for Donbest. You should ask for a better price if they are charging you that.

SOFTWARE.....GJ's does not compare.......IMHO, and the BOOKS you have, again do not stack up. PERIOD.

Shill no, satisfied customer. YES, for over 12 years now.

Re: AK talks about don best vs gjupdate

GJ is better.....DB still hold up injury reports and book can manipulate their numbers on the DB screen.

GJ gets their numbers from the books websites so it's the real deal.

100% fact that GJ has awesome customer service. i corresponded with a man named "Sonny" a couple times and he was more helpful and friendly than i would have ever imagined. there is being 'polite' and then there is actually giving a shit. I could tell this person genuinely cared that i got what i was looking for. first rate.

i don't even chime into many non-sports related threads, but GJ is more than worth taking the time to post on behalf of.

Have used GJ and IMO I prefer DB. Hey I dont care that much for DB as a company, but at the moment thier service is better than GJ, not even close.

Mike,

You listed a group of books using your service, how many are aslo using DB...Want a hint, 100% of them. So that should tell ya something.

I won't argue your point. That is something that could probably be backed up with facts. Sure, more books (at this juncture) are using DB. An even bigger number are using both screens, and an increasing number are dropping most of their DB screens and using G&J as an alternate. Some, out of comfort will keep a couple DB screens around, but are using ours as the main one. I expect this trend to continue. This is an industry of habit, its not easy to even get people willing to try. But once they do try the GJ product, most will subscribe.

So if I am a SCHILL, what would ya call this? LMAO, damn I pipe in I prefer DB over GJ, now I am the bad guy.

ALL of ya do yourself a favor, let Shrink settle it for ya, I am sure he knows plenty of people, books and players, have him take a poll, if DB isnt used by more than GJ, you can BAN me.

No offense Mike, but GJ is just not there yet. Keep up the good work, for you have progressed, dont give up.

First, I dont know what DB charges... what is it $600? I thought they bumped it to $650.

Second, So now you are taking your baseless argument from DB being the better service, while admitting that you havent used the G&J Service in awhile, to sportsbooks are using both G&J and DB? I am fine with that... that is absolutely the truth. If I were a bookmaker I would have both services too. In fact I would have as much info about setting the line as I possibly could.

are you insane? a 'schill'? i just have an opinion, i have stated nothing bad about you or to you. you need to get a hold of reality and put stop drinking. did i call you a 'schill'? nope. Did i say you're a bad guy? nope. so really, what the fuck are you talking about? you're an idiot. thats your biggest problem.

ban you? why?

wait for ken? there will never be a time in my life where i base my beliefs on what someone else has to say. ever. i can take other peoples views into consideration, but im a grown man, i can make up my mind. I enjoy GJ, is that not ok? or are you the only one allowed to state things as they see it?

I could care less about banning you. I dont even know who mofome is. He must have spoken to Sonny. You can rag on me or my product all day long, I really dont care. But I will argue the point. Problem is, its hard to argue someone that doesnt have any reasons as to why they made a claim in the first place.

Don Best was in the Computerized Line Service business before GJ. It makes sense they would have more customers. That sure as hell doesnt make their product better. Is TheRX a better forum because it has more members? Or is EOG equally good, if not better because of their steadily increasing customer base?

How do you know where we are or arent in terms of 'just not there yet' when you admit you havent even used the service in awhile. None of it makes sense from an argument standpoint.
