Yellow boxes in the contest?
What are the yellow boxes when picking a choice in a contest? Looks like thay are not just recent movements, maybe they want to restrict one side. It does not even work consistently in different contests.
I was trying to get Cincinati in the CBB contest. At bookmaker (the feed the SBR book uses) the moneyline was +390 (elsewhere it was 350-390); but it was yellowed to +330. If I refresh the page, the 390 appears for a second, but then the 330 kicks in. At the Wagerchief contest, the 390 is there, although it is not available to pick as moneylines are not allowed there.
So, I had to trick the system. I opened my dusty IE 6 with its crappy javascript engine. Loaded the page, refreshed, picked Cinci and confirmed before the effing yellow box appeared. Got it right at the 2nd attempt. Thanks Bill Gates for his subpar browser!!
Anyway, the question remains. What are the yellow boxes for?
