Justin - what percentage does a line have to be off to be considered a bad line?

[raiders72002]

I think that you would be the best guy to answer but would like to hear others.

[ryanXL977]

thats a great ****ing question

i think the answer is , it only has to be off by half a pt for it to be worthwhile longterm

[raiders72002]

ganch?

I believe he means for a book to be able to legitimately cancel your bet, not lineshopping the market.

exactly.

don -any thoughts?

+100 to -200 juice value I would say

[durito]

depends on the sport and the type of line --- and probably on the book that's offering it too

there are some nfl props for tomorrow out there that differ as much as 30% between books -- none of which i expect to be canceled for being bad

[Nicky Santoro]

nba --if it is -4.5 and you get -2 or better at the time it was painted -4.5 everywhere, they have right to cancel it.

baseball or hockey--- if ML is -160 everywhere, and you get -125 or better, they can cancel it.

I've seen 20%... where you seeing 30% at? PM me if you don't want to post.

I'm depositing funds tomorrow morning in 2 books to get some props going... I have 4 books I'm looking to shop for values, but the props are way the hell out of wack

[Justin7]

Depends on the sport. The bigger the market, the smaller the mistake. If there's no market for it, it has to be very obvious. In NFL, +3.5 could be bad if the market were +2. If you are the only one offering a prop though, it had better be a typo or EV>50%.

I remember one time I played at Gamebookers and these morons had an NCAAB total at 182, when it should have been 128, the under 128 still hit, so I dont know if they would have cashed my 182 had it gone over 128...

Either way, what a bunch of morons.
