    why do they move the line when they are 100% confident it's correct at times?

    there have been plenty of books going broke lol

    not sure what else to say to that

    Small time books go broke because they're underfunded or take too many losing positions.

    Books move the line because they're NOT confident the line is correct. That's respecting the market.

    90% of books just follow pinny's line.

    Many offshore books are not legit. They are in it because it is easy for them to make a quick buck and there is very little anyone can, or will do about it. The vast majority of gamblers are losers, and losing breeds desperation. To be honest, many of you guys are an easy mark. You believe anything that you think will give you the chance to get back to even. Operators take advantage of these type of people. Just look at the pages and pages of complaints in here about off shore books and their failures to pay. If you must play with an offshore book (which is like begging to be taken) at least stick to one that is semi-legit. Those are few and far between.

    Especially you LT, you bet at least 4 main sports and seem profitable, how do you gather all the necessary inputs while also managing a marriage?

    Are you using coding or a macro to pull the data automatically? If so, what process / sites are you using to do so?

    Starting to learn basic code and intrigued to know how you guys are spitting out simulations and scores to find +EV lines along with being efficient.
