I remember when I first started betting that every line was -110 no matter what. I wish it was still that way.

No -116 -120, the only thing that what get adjusted was the spread.

I am glad it isn't still that way..

Much easier to make a profit now with exchanges out there where you can typically get bets laying only 2-3c rather then 10c.

you added on to your orginal post. I think what you are saying is that if it is going to be 20 cents juice than -110 on both sides with moving of number was better.

always wondered why books don't use the sometimes Pinny method of just moving juice not number. Most be too complicated to the public so books don't do it that much.

I phrased it wrong. What I meant to say was, I wish they would go back to the old way of not adjusting the juice. -110 was just a reference.

What I meant to say was, I wish I could go to pinny and every line would be -105 on both sides.

It does you no good to place a bet at Pinny if the side you want is -118.

Get where im comming from?

I did a poor job of explaining what I was trying to say.

I love the reduced vig, I would rather spread adjustments over juice adjustments.

I would like to go to pinny and know that no matter which side I bet on its going to be -105. Thats the way it was in the old days.

This does not apply to exchanges like matchbook. Thats a whole nother ballgame.

Doesn't Cascade usually leave it at -105 and just move the number?

Cascade is better, BetTrojan is better, and Hollywood was better.

Pinnacle is the worlds worst when it comes to adjusting juice. They hate to move off of numbers more than anyone.

Sure, then we could watch the number move -3, -3.13, -3.25, -3.37, -3.5, -3.75, -3.95, -4.
