    Interview with Head Linesman at Legends: Regular-Season Basketball
    SBR.tv's Peter Loshak had a phone interview with Doc, the Head Line Manager at Legends, about booking the regular season in basketball, both college and the pros. In 2 parts.



    Part 1: Risk, Middles, and Action Attraction



    Topics include the risk of having losing days or weeks in basketball as compared with football, line moves and the risk of middles, and what types of basketball games attract the most action from bettors.



    Part 2: College Saturdays, Bet Volume, and Post-Football Changes



    Topics include huge Saturday cards in college, the volume of various kinds of bets, and how the betting lines and betting action changes in basketball after the end of football season.

            I really enjoyed that. I bet they got beat up on the TNT games last night with all the favs covering.

            I will be looking forward to the interview before the tournament.

                What exactly does a head linesman at legendz do? Stare at donbest all day and move when the screen moves? Sounds like a tough job.

                        Thats exactly what I was thinking. You dont make openers, your job is not that hard in the biz.

                                      Peter, would love to know what issues/problems guys like this bookmaker experience with moving money back and forth. with neteller gone, its got to be a different world for them, i mean plenty of money flows, but it has to be a different animal. would love to hear their take on it.

                                        I loved the video, except for one thing:

                                        When conducting an interview or any publicly released work which claims to have a journalistic/informative nature, it is only fair to include a proper disclosure. In this case - Legendz is one of SBR's premier sponsors.

                                        I could care less really as long as I enjoy the videos, but if SBR wants to get a little more serious about being "The Authority" for sports-betting, this is a must.

                                                  The video quality and especially the audio is much improved. I could barely understand those call ins in the past. Good vid.

                                                        I think the dude is full of shit. No way do they win every Saturday card in basketball or even every week in basketball unless they're pussies like 5dimes and SIA by just getting rid of anyone who show's any ability to win. Also if they are so good why do they copy bookmakers openers like everyone else?
