    SBR Special Lines -" I see dead people"

    This football season special lines will be taken to a new level. But there is a catch(isn't there always?). You can follow all the specials on SBROdds.com.

    As an example let's say Dallas is playing Carolina and the true line is Dallas -7. Without notice we will move the line to Dallas -4. It may last 2 minutes it may last an hour or it could last a full day. There will be a lot of special lines on NCAA and NFL foots both sides and totals usually with normal limits and conditions.

    so how do we know if it is a "special line" or a bad line

    i remember the sbr book has had bad lines before in the past and then proceeded to cancel those wagers

    Special lines will be 3 points or less or .30 on the juice. Bad lines always occur due to many factors. If you see a line off by more than 3 points or .30 get on chat and ask if its a good line to bet. We will only offer specials on NFL and high profile NCAA games. It's rare to have a line error on those.

    Just give SBR Specials unique rotation numbers to make them identifiable.

    That's a good idea but it creates numerous technical snafus such as the game moving out of its spot on the schedule say to the bottom of the schedule which is a problem. We will work on a solution.

    It may not be a bad thing to have all Special lines start with 000 so they are always on top.

    It throws games out of their start time sequence when you start the special, then back in its normal rotation when the special ends. That's particularity a problem on Saturday but Sunday as well. We will come up with a solution but it will have to be one that keeps games from jumping around the schedule.

    Beware in betting these special lines - John and Lou have scooped up a lot of betpoints back thanks to them. They put lots of hours into their opinions - leaves everyone with no points left and looking for loans.
