this is new age new style bookmaking.
They avoid middles and they must get more balanced overall action with this approach. OTherwise they would not do it....
They are not a joke but for many newbies or guys used to wagering with their local man this is a hard thing to handicap
when you see it.

Basically it is telling me that they are losing money, and they are not as free wheeling as they usually are. I have watched their lines for a long long time and they NEVER did that. Especially on sides with 1/2K limits (depending on who you are).
They have lowered their teaser pay offs,and they have lowered my overnight limits ( I am sure I am not the only one) to laughable amounts.
They are feeling the pinch for sure with all these favs coming in. They have definately taken a more "realistic" stance when it comes to bookmaking. The thing is reality is something most people aren't used to since these books have been gambling for so long people think that the books can do what they do and not pay a price. SO people do not even know what REAL book making is. They think it is getting a 50% sign up, having lines move 2-3 points whenever someone looks at it sidewyas, and then getting a chance to bet the side you weant with the points you want if you wait long enough. (at reduced juice still)
Pinny is finally showing what it takes to actually insure a profit. Players might not like it. But I would surely rather have them do that and stay in business than continue to take lopsded action (and lose apparently) and be force into more drastic measures.
