These books are really making it hard to buy off of "3" points lately. The juice they charge is absolutely ridiculous. Even if you're buying down to 3 or off 3, they make it expensive. Just the other night I liked the Ravens and wanted to buy down to 2.5, but it was prohibitive. And now they even want to charge higher juice buying off of 7. What's the offshore world coming to?

if its too expensive don't buy it. Pretty simple. Books don't wanna dodge 3's and 7's all day.

What's too expensive ?

Very roughly off the three is like 22 cents, so a 25 cent line change is appropriate, 30 cents or more is pushing it, with 10 cents there your book will fail and Blue Marlin you....like Reggie did to me for 5k.

The "7" is worth more like 11-12 cents, so charge 15 cents.

It ain't hard to offer a fair line on a buy....collecting is why I don't book !

It sure would have helped getting me Detroit as a winner yesterday instead of a push.

i thought it was funny as yesterday pinny was charging -125 juice on houston -3 all day long and then 10 mins before game it went to Houston -3.5 +107 lol so they basically never gave houston backers a shot at winning the game (only push) because who in their right mind would take an already -125 line and buy the big hook of 20-30 cents off 3?
