I always get stale lines, but lose... this can't continue, can it ?

Stuff like Pistons ( overnight) at -2 -105, when Pinny is -115, and Mansion is -2.5 -104.

I'm not betting steam, just bet the side I want there, when they have the best price, or taking a lead on a game I expect to move.

I should be killing them. I like the book, a lot, esp. for parlays ( I take a shot now and then when the prices are right).

they are sharp lines this book maker knows his clients and knows how to get $$$$ as this -105 shop. They have cleaned up on sharps in the NFL, and the public chasing steam, and cleaned house on NCAA hoops scalpers....

Yes, the lines are rather stale, they have -105 halves, rarely move off of -105 ( like -115/ +105). They very often have the best line on one side of a game, even compared to Mansion. They don't go like -109/ -101, move in 5-cent moves, move points not juice, except like foots on 3.

They scared me at first, but I'm starting to trust them more, as I learn more about them, everybody says they pay fast.

If you beat them to moves expect to be made to call in your plays pretty quickly. Someboby mentioned "cleaning up on scalpers," I very much doubt that because those are the kind of players they force to call in their plays.

Kind of raised my eyebrows, as well ! Ten cents off of Pinny ( and everybody else) is stale,IMO. I'll play, but with caution, often sending in just enough for the next bet, as I continue to lose there.

You have to be quick to adjust and hang -105, IMO. The 5-cent increments are also a bit large, even Sky goes -107/ -113 etc with full juice.

One of my books, but I keep it to a comfort level, I've been thru a few problem books before that give too much away. I hope they make it, like the book, like the software, like the CS, but I remain cautious.

Our software does allow us to move pennies, we move nickles for our own reasons. Keep in mind we have a very strong credit shop that takes a lot of action.
