Bad lines - should be honoured by the book!
Especially if the book doesn't allow bets to be canceled.
When placing a wager the bettor is responsible for his actions, some books clearly stipulate once a bet is made it cannot be canceled/changed (due to bettor error), yet they get to cancel a players wager made on a line THEY put up AFTER accepting the wager!
Books shouldn't get the added benefit of canceling a bet made on a bad line.
If I go to a store and they advertise the wrong price (lower than it should be) the store has an obligation to honour the price. Vegas books must honour all bets, even if they gave a bad line.
Why do offshore books get the benefit of not having to pay on bad lines?
