    Wrigley Field

    Any truth to Wrigley being a hitter's park or pitcher's park depending on the weather and the wind? Noticed that it is the only O/U line that isn't posted (5dimes) for Monday's games and read somewhere that books wait to post the line till they get a read on the weather...

    Sportsbook.ag opened O/U,for Cubs/Braves, at 9 and then a few hours later my book(5Dimes) opened it at 7. Does this happen a lot ? Would have jumped all over under 9 !

    Look @ the wind conditions prior to the time they are actually released, and you will be able to guess the total.

    Be prepared for some 12.5's in the coming summer months, when the wind is blowing straight out.

    Wow that's high. I just don't understand why Sportsbook would open tonight's game at Wrigley at 9 while every other online betting site opened it at 7. Looking at the weather last night seems like 9 had a lot of value to it. Just wish I had and account with Sportsbook.ag

    No you do not. Once you win, 4 month wait on withdrawal, pain/suffering, and other stall tactics would be used on your account.

    Thanks for the heads up. An occasional good line is def not worth all that crap.

    Typically in the offshore world, books with awesome lines, do not pay.
