    Bookie Not Changing Lines
    I've got a question that I hope some of you may have an answer to. There's a local bookie I can bet through that NEVER changes his lines, and often times has a bad line to begin with altogether.

    My question is, if I would 'blindly' bet on every team in which the line I can get is way more favorable to any other book, would I be expected to win in the long run? I've posted the NFL lines that I can get from him this weekend below...

    These are the two that are underdogs according to him, but favorites elsewhere
    Detroit: +2.5 on his site, -1 most other places
    Dallas: +4.5 on his site, -1 most

    These are the other lines he has

    Denver: -3
    Tampa: -2.5
    Miami: -4.5
    New England: -9.5
    Baltimore: -6
    New York Giants: -6
    New Orleans Pick
    Seattle: -5.5
    San Fran: -11
    Pit: -11


    Any and all input would be greatly appreciated!

    In addition to this, there are several of his college lines that are 4-5+ points off every week

      You are getting value if you play those games where the line is off. You would probably do OK in the long run. Would definitely play Detroit/Dallas if I had those lines that you posted.

            These are the most notable: Most are only 2-3 points off this week it looks like..

            Stanford +1
            Northwestern +13
            Virginia +3
            North Carolina -5.5
            OK State -7.5
            Oklahoma -19
            Clemson -27.5
            Memphis +1.5
            Utah +2

                        Yes, once the lines are opened they NEVER change. It's the same every week - he opens his line and never adjusts it, regardless of what every other book does. For instance, I got the Texans at + points vs the Jets a few weeks back.

                            1. introduce me to your bookie.. lol

                            2. Jump on Dallas asap.

                            3. I rarely play 2 side/ 6 pt teasers ,but him not changing the lines will cross you over key numbers often... You can break his ass.
