A real book would have no problem with it ( assuming no bonus rollover involved). One has the implied right to make an early bet ( say NFL) then change their mind and desire to cancel it by betting the other side ( usually eating the vig) sometimes even via a Polish middle like +7.5/ -8.5. If it becomes +8.5/ -7.5 it should not be an issue.
When you hang a line you want bets on THAT line so you theoretically split the NEW action on the NEW number. It's never bad for the bookie to split action and make the vig....so what if Joe Blow happens to middle an NFL "8" with a buyback once every 40 times, or even if he gets +3.5/ -2.5 ? The counter action should make that meaningless with a book that has volume. SIA is anal about this.
I'd go even farther and say it should be OK for rollover on bonuses.
Why force the buy-backer to bet elsewhere when you're already gladly taking bets from ANYONE else on the new line ?
It's RETARDED !
Any idiot trying to rollover a bonus by betting both sides will get vigged-out doing it.
I can't determine is more stupider....the books or the players at times !
