Re: Making a Point--Line Shopping Matters
someone is betting seriously and only using B&M? is this 1991? do some casinos offer -105 or something special these days that I don't know about?

[/ QUOTE ] B&M and locals are where you're going to find the best lines to bet, especially on public games. LV books are not allowed to lay off action on other books by law, so there's often great numbers to be had. Online WA numbers are a tough nut to crack (obv not even close to impossible) especially when factoring the slight (?) risk of not getting paid.

Tons of the B&M books move their lines on "air". i.e. Don Best shows that the bigger online books moved a game by a point most of the the B&M's follow suit without actually taking a limit bet.

[/ QUOTE ] The point to be made here is that the B&M books can have too much one sided action so they're offering a nice price to bait in money on the other side to reduce their risk. In fact, I remember reading somewhere on LVASports that a book (the Palms?) was offering an insane price for the Steelers money line for last week's MNF game because they had taken a large bet on the Ravens money line.
