Bookmaker is where the line orginates from, as they are the first too post a number and from what I see they opened it at -4.5, so that is the TRUE opening line.

agree but they opened 4 1/2 and they bet + and 20 other shops opened 4.....i dont count BM openers as true openers .......lower limits lines get pounded around then everyone opens........more realistic gage IMO

The fact that Bookmaker/Cris opened at -4.5 doesn't mean every book had that number.

I confirmed to FeelTheTruth this morning that the line opened -4, without even knowing what the question was about or that PO69 was involved.

FeelTheTruth, how much was the bet for? And what were the terms?

i hear what you are saying and I agree. I havent really read much of the thread but I thought they were talking about what the linesmaker came out at and too me that is what the first line is, from there it becomes the public who sets/moves/adjusts the line more or less.

Iceman... we agreed on 5 books.. bodog, sia, skybook, betjm, cris(bookmaker)

I predicted 3 as the opener...he predicted 6... we settled on 4.5 and I took the under.

we agreed we would use whatever # the majority of those books had... not what the 1st book had.

bodog, sia, and sky opened 4

betjm, cris opened 4.5

and the bet is only $50... I dont want the money, the guy is obviously hard up, I just want him to admit he is wrong

But skybook opened at -4.5.

I am not even sure that SIA didnt open at -4.5 as a matter of fact

It opened at 4 pts at most books.


Can the mods please perma ban PO69? He's a proven scammer, and uses this forum just to steal from other posters. With a huge post count you'd imagine he would be legit, so it's easy for the new members to fall victim to him.


It's absolutle insanity that this scumbag is allowed to post.
