Also I feel dumb reading more of your post but you compare to Bodog? Are you fccuking trolling us or something? Bodog's juice is about as bad as it comes online. Try comparing to one of the top 20 sites, not Bodog.

Even if your local is giving you slightly better vigs than online sites this just means you save on juice, how in the fccuk are you crushing a bookie just because you are getting reduced juice?

If the line at Pinnacle is -130/+122 he is going to do very well with his -110.

The OP's lines are not reduced juice...they are errant lines.

If I could get +110 on all the spreads, I'd be rich too.

Whatever I just threw an idea out there, all you are doing is abusing me, I haven't post anything offensive to anyone but am being called a retard.

Thus I am done with this discussion, also keep in mind there is a reason the line is -130 online.

Yeah, I have no idea why people are abusing you.

When Mayweather fought Gatti, I got Mayweather -250 from a bookie. That line was not available anywhere online. Arturo Gatti fights out of Jersey City, and packs the house in AC, so I am sure I was getting some kind of local line.

You really can get errant lines from a bookie, and not just against local teams/sides. Most of the people attacking you have probably never used a bookie before.

Thank you post for your support, there is a reason the line is -130 though, obviously people in vegas think there was a higher chance of seattle covering, thus raising the line to -130 so it evens out in the long run, so if you pound these games but getting -110 in the long run you should win, dont you agree with me.

You'll need to look at a book like Pinnacle or Matchbook, not Bodog, especially if you're getting Bodog's square lines.

Yes, I agree that if you see the other side is better than +110 online, than you should win. As others have pointed out, don't rely on Bodog's or Sportsbook's lines for comparison though. If you want one book to compare with, use Pinnacle.
