Also if the Syndicate wants to lay 5.5 and 6 on a game and everybody is using 5.5 so the syndicate will send all his beards in to lay all the 5.5 and practically all the books will go to 6 only. if the syndicate would have layed the 5.5 he wouldnt have been able to lay the 6 too.
All afternoon I've been reading this statement, every book at one point or another has booted a sharp. I will find out Greenhead story,I know its two sides to every story. but anyway I think Greenhead can bet Delmar the rest of his life and not get booted. Spiro has never booted anybody from betting him without probable cause. I will find out.Moon88 said:

There are a number of ways to beat a book so badly that you are asked to leave including Olympic. Sports wagering is by no means the only way. Even Spiro knows when he is facing a man he cannot beat and doesn't know why. He will cut his losses as it is a wise business decision. He's done it before and he will do it again because it is the smart thing to do. End of story.

Didn't mean to confuse you. What I meant is Olympic, as well as many other books, offer a number of ways to be bet into of which they are at a distinct disadvantage and can and have been beaten badly and know when they are being beaten and make business decisions to cut their potential losses by limiting or booting their adversary. Traditional sporting events is not the only way they can be vulnerable. Hope that helps clarify.

You need to read my posts carefully. I have consistently said that even Spiro will make business decisions to either cut limits or boot players he cannot beat when he knows it. I specifically indicated that I wasn't necessarily referring to the traditional sports. You are not privy to all the facts I am referring too here. As the response presented by The General in his communication with Spiro indicates, limits will be cut on the type of bets where he feels he is at a disadvantage and there are a number of them as he honestly stated. Reread the response from Spiro to The General. It is clear and accurate. There will be no debate from me as I know the facts involved and you do not. End of story.
