Default Re: +EV prop bets -- \"Will team XYZ make the playoffs\"

I don't expect anything less from a book that advertises a public line feed that only the very new or clueless have access to, while firmly denying that they deal dual lines.

It's not as if I was destroying them on props, as I said I rarely bet there, and I don't beat steam or anything like that, and they still managed to flag my account.

I don't have any ethical problems with it either, as I consider their public feed to be a form of false advertising, but as Homer pointed out, books like these only bother moving the line when they check and see that it's "off."

Some of the smaller "recreational" books are lazy and can't be bothered to move their lines, so what they do is see which bettors routinely only bet when a line is off from Pinnacle, and then tell them they have to call their bets in, or put them on a lengthy delay. Then they can double check with Pinnacle or whoever before accepting the bet.
