Ricky: No problem, please allow me to check on that, I will be back shortly

you: ok

Ricky: We offer a 10 cent line, well after the -187, the comeback will be smaller for instance a -200 favorite will have a comeback of +170, the gap between the dog and the favorite will get bigger as the price goes up, it a very extensive chart

Could you explain what that part means about the "line breaks" and the "comeback"?

[onlooker]

Could you explain what that part means about the "line breaks" and the "comeback"?

Line Breaks = When the line increases from 10 cent lines to 20/30 cent. The price drops on the comeback at the line break. So at -190, the comeback (underdog) could be +170 at 20 cent or +160 at 30 cent.

Comeback = The underdog line, if the Favorite is -125, on a 10 cent scale, the comeback (underdog) will be +115.

I hope that helps you out Guapo.

So does this really mean lines will look like

+175/-185

+170/-200

Ricky: Ho will you be depositing?

This should have been your response....

Dan: Bitch, I ain't yo ho and I wouldn't deposit for you even if you was the last sorryass pimp in the land.

Here are their rules on bases:

baseball wagering rules

1) Games are official after 5 innings of play unless the home team is winning after 4 1/2 innings.

2) After 9 innings of play, if the game is called or suspended, the final score is determined after the last full inning of play unless the home team scores to tie or take the lead in the bottom half of the inning, in which case the winner is determined by the score when the game is called.

3) Suspended games do not carry over to the following day.

4) When wagering on total runs (over/under) the game must go 9 innings (8 1/2 if the home team is winning). If the game is suspended after 9 innings (Same rules as above apply)

5) Wagers on total runs are refunded in the event of a pitching change.

6) Run line wagers are the same as those for baseball totals.

7) Baseball wagers will be accepted as follows:

a. Action-Team against team, regardless of starting pitcher.
b. One specified pitcher - A wager on or against a specified pitcher, regardless of the other starting pitcher.
c. Both specified pitchers - A wager that specifies both starting pitchers as advertised, any change constitutes "No Action".

Note: The starting pitchers are determined after the first pitch. In the event of a pitching change prior to the game, the money price may be adjusted.

So does this really mean lines will look like

+175/-185

+170/-200

If what he said in that chat is right, then yes, the lines should look like that.

They offer -107 for pro and college football. So they are a pretty good out to have. Plus the are rated A+ here at SBR.

i didn't like the big line drop, or the lack of baseball betting options they are offering.
