    I'll go 109 on the over too. Although I think this is very square and has maybe a 25% chance of hitting.

    returning that. Sorry if my post was confusing. I was giving Pinnacle odds to compare so people could see I was offering better than the Pinnacle line on Azarenka. I didn't want to bet on the total.

    Ah cool. That's my fault. Probably just saved me some pts!

    Well, you post the total but won't accept the bet on it. These are points, man.

    You act like you're giving some great deal when you turn the -220 into -210 and the -115 into -109.

    Why do you think the only person who even bothered to give you action was not only a die hard tennis fan but a SBR mod?

    I gave a better deal than Pinnacle. How about reading the first post?

    I posted the Pinnacle lines, which are low vig to begin with, and then I offered better lines than that. Show me where you could get a better price? trytrytry had a thread and he was offering worse prices on everything.

    I didn't get much action because I waited until too close to the match, but if you liked Azarenka, you weren't getting a better price when I started the thread, or later (because the odds went up. She closed at about -230).

    Yeah, man. I understand exactly what you were doing. Apparently you liked Sharapova and wanted a good deal on her. You hardly lowered the odds at all though. That was my point. And again, these are just betpoints, not money. If you made the line like -150 then yeah you would have been giving a deal that could have grabbed people's attention. Why would anyone really care about getting -220 for -210 with betpoints, let alone for 600 points max? My comment about you being a points nit may have been uncalled for, but it's certainly true.

    dtp, this is the points nit forum. You are out of line. I mean, you saw someone even took the bet, why would you comment that he needed to do better to get any attention?

    yisman, please keep posting deals.

    Yeah, I understand this is the points nit forum. But the one person taking his action is an SBR mod??? All about betpoints value hunting I guess.

    You're wrong and completely clueless about the subject. I beat the no vig line and any book you could've used. I checked 6 books and this beat the odds on every one, usually by a significant amount.

    Only 600 max? Where are you betting higher? You don't even have 600 points.

    Why would anyone care about getting -210 instead of -220? Do you gamble?

    I said 600 max win which meant a max bet of 1260.

    Come up with 1260 points and I'll be happy to raise the limits for you.

    You were offering a bet on one side. Which means you were getting Sharapova at +210, which is better than you could have found anywhere, even pinnacle. You are a points nit to the max, Yisman.

    This was posted after 2 PM. I didn't expect to get much action because I posted too late. I can promise I would've gotten more action had I posted earlier. There wasn't a long time to get bets in.

    I've donated thousands of points to charity. You are a moron.

    so I'm a "points nit" because I save up points and donate to charity.

    I offer better than the no vig line (which is rare by the way, find me threads recently where people have been doing that) and some clown comes in here insulting me.

    Another lie.

    I bet it at 5 Dimes.

    134168159-2 9/7/12 2:02pm Pending 9/7/12 1:45pm Reduced Tennis 14758 Maria Sharapova +210* vs Victoria Azarenka



    So for me I was getting a line the same as I could get at 5 Dimes. For you, I was beating every book.

    You're upset because yisman "hardly lowered the odds?" He always offers better lines than the SBR book, I try to throw him some point action any time he offers it. I think he's aware that points aren't money, he offers the lines for fun.
