Quit complaining about the liquidity and put some in!! Its up to the educated bettors. If you are laying -110, you're losing. During MLB season you'll see over $50,000 in liquidity in some games. A few dimes on others.

I'm not complaining. It was a joke, lighten up. I play at Matchbook and Pinnacle, I cant even remember the last time I laid -110 on a spread.

I'll gladly lay -110 as long as they're laying -125 at Pinnacle.

put up a bet at more than is on offer for say $10
then edit it to $10.01
you will then have two bets pending matches, one for $10 and one for 1 cent
delete the first leaving you with a 1 cent bid

I'm amazed by how often I'm make an offer and it will be nibbled at by people taking five dollars or twenty dollars. I'm not complaining, and I"m glad there are small bettors on MB I guess. It just surprises me that someone betting five dollars a game would be savvy enough to use MB.
