Lines All Basically The Same

Looking today at lots of books and here and there a 1/2 point better but I am comparing 15 books, everyone just copies.

Pinny and any two others and you are fine, dont waste your time line shopping and go research games instead.

jjgold, always good for a laugh.

What RS Said.

I think that swallowing that old guy's jizz has pickled jjgold's brain. Just when you think the posts can't get any more inane, he still manages to come up with the goods.

Hoja Verdes · 09-17-2006, 12:59 AM

jj are you up or down on the day?

cheers

I think JJ has a valid point here, even if it isn't the way I myself go about business.

If you're the type of bettor that can pick 55% winners then you can make money with just about anyone's numbers. Obviously you can make more money if you spend the time and effort finding the best line on each event, but for some it simply isn't where they want to devote their time and energy. If spending more time on research makes an individual pick winners at a higher percentage then I would definitely say the time is better spent doing that then hunting for better value.

Most guys in this thread do not bet as I can see, go look at a line scren it looks like this

15,15,15,15,15,15,14.5,14.5,15,15,15,15, 14.5

LMAO clowns

Just use Pinnacle and two other regular big books and you will alwys get the best line!!!

Ask any bettor where the majority of their plays are and it is always Book A 95%!!

LMAO non bettors

All depends. I had no opinion on a game yesterday, but won big because the middle hit. Definitely look beyond the lines at SBR lines.

After many years of gambling JJ is perfectly willing to show people just HOW he ended up in a basement.

You gotta improve on that scalping thing RS. Get back when you have a handle of 10 times that amount.

jjgold · 09-17-2006, 01:57 PM

My handle the last 12 months was approx $ 380,000

Steve is a scalper, anyone can have that handle with zero risk

My handle is one side only

I think the closer it gets to gametime, the more likely books are to clone their lines...however, during the week you can find some descrepencies in the lines...
