To give you a valid, personal example: right at this moment, my national source has Baltimore -1. You like the Bengals? better find another out. Like the Ravens? Grab it now.

Enough said.

What's your "national source" that has Baltimore -1? :think2: Thanks in advance for your swift reply. I'll register account at that outfit right now. That line is totally out of whack IMO.

We had dinner at the peppermill here in Reno, after we stopped by the race & sports book. Its really nice way they have Sports & Race books designed, very modern for Reno. They also moved lines we bet on at the Eldorado Sports Book on those two teams we bet on. Peppermill also moved line with the Colts -3 1/2 from -3. They must be getting lot action on these games. J.J. is pretty sure Nugget also moved these lines too. Its a William Hill Sports Book. Lot of these books you have to understand in Reno are small in the hotels. Reno reminds me of old Vegas and maybe that's why J.J. loves living here. It probably reminds him of the old days when we use to all hang out Vegas together in 70s and 80s. PS... Food was outstanding at the Peppermill also and so were the cocktails celebrating my birthday early//LOL LOL!!!

Eldorado is a Wiliam Hill sports book. I go there quite often. Current line Is minus 3 even money on Miami..& -120 On the bills. You can catch some good lines there. Sometimes it worth waiting for in game play for better spreads. This is one of the few northern Nevada clubs I know of that offer this.

Makes sense. Since these types of books are small, they're likely to put out soft lines. This way, you'll get a much better deal. People here are unable to take advantage of this, so it's understandable why they're perplexed. Looks like people will have to travel or move to Reno to get these kinds of bargains. :)!/

The line may be totally out of whack to you. But if someone is taking a lot of action on one side or another, moving the line is called good bookmaking. That is, unless you are the book and choose to take a position on one side or another at your own risk.

Happens every weekend, all over the country.

Sorry, I ain't buying those lines on the Bills and Eagles.
You are already paying a premium almost everywhere on Bills + 3 and they're dealing 3.5 (-110) ?

And line has been dropping the last couple of days on Eagles after it hit a high of 2.5.
You
are entitled to your opinion. But not entitled to your own facts
LENBO. I wonder what NFL lines are in the UK Or even Europe? //LOL/LOL!!!!!

I guess I spoke too soon on the Eldorado.. Peppermill is a favorite of mine. Some of the best food for sure and the Tuscony suite rooms are second to none. I believe they are an independen sports book that tends to jack up the points on the Bay Area home teams..Also offer drink tickets when wagering which is nice too.

Must have been the only book in America that offered Bills +3.5 (-110)
Couple of guys bet the game at that line and now we're at + 3 (-120)
And this happened all within the last couple of hours.

What you've written is a non-sequitur.

You conveniently sidestepped my DIRECT question. You stated that your "national source" has Baltimore -1. I asked you to provide me and others the identity of said "national source."

Well, how about it? How can we can a hold of this "national source" of your's? :think2:

You don't think professionals would be whacking the shit out of those soft lines if they knew 3.5s were available on a game where you can't even find +3 (-110) ?

What are they dealing, $200 limits ?

Definitely agree with you! This is why I'm asking "Green17" to reveal the identity of his "national source" where we can get Baltimore -1. Pros and amateurs alike would load up on that play IMO.

Anyway, we don't know what the Eldorado limits are, do we? Anyone? :think2:

I have better things to do then argue with you ~LENBO~ over point spreads, Like hanging out with all friends that are Gamblers & Handicappers that I have not seen for while here in Reno and my crew. If you keep wanting to harp on this subject ~LENBO~ about 1/2 point or what ever? that's your option? I also have better things to do also. Like Cock-tailing and getting up early morning watching the NFL games with my friends and crew and partying.

Congrats on finding the only + 3.5 in America on Buffalo and + 3 on Philly.
I think I'll book a flight to Reno to catch some of those soft lines before you knock them out.

Sorry but they never existed with William Hill today. I live an hour from Reno and I can tell you first hand but to each his own.
