    If you bet a 13 point tsr, shouldnt the reg line be the one closest to -110?

    It always has been.

    But if you try to do a 13 pt teaser on LSU, you are getting LSU +14, which makes no sense because LSU +1 is +115.

    LSU +2.5 is what should be used because that is -115.



    I should be getting LSU +15.5, not +14. Anyone else betting tsrs at 5dimes know what Im saying here?

    5dimes specifically doesnt put the -110 line as their "main line" in order to protect against teasers, been that way forever.

    yes, in theory you are correct. However the books are trying to protect themselves by using this 'main line' thing in order to mislead and catch people slipping.

    Isnt this unusual?


    Percy: Hello. How may I assist you today?
    xxxx: yes I placed a 13 pr tsr
    xxxx: ticket number: 103970068-1
    xxxx: according to your site, I should be getting lsu +15.5, not +14
    xxxx: because the regular line for the game is lsu +2.5
    xxxx: lsu +1 is not the regular line, it is an alternate line
    xxxx: are you following me?
    Percy: let me see
    Percy: the game line is Alabama -1
    Percy: that's the line used for all teasers
    xxxx: lsu -1 is -135
    xxxx: lsu -2.5 is -115
    Percy: no
    xxxx: so that means the regular line is -2.5
    xxxx: yes look now
    xxxx: look at the odds
    Percy: the regular line is -1 -135
    xxxx: regular line is -110 or closes to -110
    Percy: I'm looking at it right now
    Percy: LSU is +1 +115
    xxxx: look at the juice tho
    xxxx: yes, which means it is an alternate line
    Percy: I know what you're saying
    Percy: but it doesn't work that way her
    Percy: here*
    xxxx: why would you guys use an alternate line as a regular line?
    Percy: that's our regular line
    xxxx: regular line -135 and +115?
    Percy: correct
    xxxx: the regular line is -2.5, +2.5
    xxxx: -115 and -105
    xxxx: I dont know how you dont see what Im saying
    xxxx: Ive never seen it done like this before here
    xxxx: could you check with the wagering manager?
    Percy: I understand what you're saying. Here it doesn't work that way .
    Percy: we choose our base line
    Percy: that's the line for teasers
    Percy: the first line on the list is our base line
    xxxx: then why isnt this consistent?
