    Is this a bad line?
    My friend got Indiana State +4 +135 at pinnacle
    bet was cancelled
    movements are clearly visible at sbrlines, was this HUGE error? i personaly know nothing about the game and movements but it seems to be 40 cent error max
    can SBR help in this?

    Wow, Pinnacle canceled a bet on apparent steam and nothing more? Odd...

      I'd say it's probably borderline.

      4.5 +101 / +4.5 -111 02/05/2007 11:26AM -194 / +176 02/05/2007 11:26AM
      -4.5 +106 / +4.5 -116 02/05/2007 11:30AM
      -4 -150 / +4 +135 02/05/2007 11:31AM -188 / +170 02/05/2007 11:31AM
      -4 -144 / +4 +132 02/05/2007 11:32AM
      -4 -105 / +4 -105 02/05/2007 11:35AM -184 / +166 02/05/2007 11:35AM

        Line history from SBRlines:

        11:30AM Indiana State +4.5 -116
        11:31AM Indiana State +4.0 +135
        11:32AM Indiana State +4.0 +132
        11:35AM Indiana State +4.0 -105

        Interesting. Im not sure if it was just a big error or apparent steam.

          Looks more like a goof on the juice then steam.

            One huge bet on a small NCAA game can do that, no? I've seen overnight NCAA totals in the +150 range because of a max bet or two.

            Maybe the system automatically adjusted it when someone hit it huge on the other side, and the managers later decided that was an overcompensation?

              Looks like they moved it the wrong way and those who picked it off had it voided. It happens rarely at Pinnacle and they usually void it in less than a minute.

              I wouldn't be surprised it they let him trade his account for the bet.

                it can be error caused by change of spread from 4.5 to 4
                sometimes strange numbers occur at pinnacle while they change basic spreads/totals

                  Right, especially since they changed the number as well, it was only a 25-30c move. Not exactly pickoff, IMO.

                    Not blaming the player for not knowing. I'd probably grab it too.

                            Well if it lands on 110, then he has a problem. Them sneaking the hook on the bet after it was confirmed. Not nice.

                              canbet cancelled it, but only because he had screenshot

                              it is really not nice that they have software that changes bets after confirming... WTF "fixed odds"?

                                So what, did they give it to him at 110 then? Or just cancelled it completely? They should of honored the 110.

                                  they cancelled it and offered him to call in to get 110, he refused because we have expensive int calls, it was ok how they handle it after they saw screenshots, but odds and spread at transaktion history should not be changed!

                                  I will be happy with the new sbrtool making automatic screenshots.

                                    Yes, this is a prime example why taking a screenshot of the confirmation screen is a must. In case they try to get sneaky like canbet just did.
