    Say RIGHT NOW you decide you like MONTREAL tonight.


    They are +175 at REBATEWAGER, which is probably the best line out there right now, even better than Matchbook.

    .......and just like that, it be gone.

    But you get my drift, never discount a book just because they have 20 cent lines in bases.

    There is a wide array of sports out there folks.

                Same reasoning why C and D books are still valuable.

                  The books with full vig will still have opinions frequently and set the number accordingly.

                    Not early NO
                    500k closer to game time as Will Hill,Paddy,Lad,bwin and to a lesser extent Pinney dump
                    bases ehh some nights less than 5 dimes but real value on games on ESPN UK and skysport
                    The British will bet on anything

                          Liquidity is the amount of money available to wager
                          If you watch long enough you can a get a sense of where the money is going

                            forgive my lack of knowledge but what are you watching exactly? How do you know the exact numbers like $55,000 and $31,000 that you posted earlier in this thread...

                                  If you have matchbook or betfair open that $ number next to the odds/point spread
                                  is the amount available to wager
                                  It's like watching for a live lean if a huge offer comes on one team it means they are on the other side
                                  HOWEVER
                                  There is a lot more too it than just that with a ton of factors(Books laying off etc,Crazzy Russian drug lords going nuts,Fishy scalping,etc etc)
                                  Its another tool to use while capping a game
