How many of you play Proline in Canada?

**icemaster47** · 07-25-11, 12:28 PM

odds on proline are terrible, once in a while they make a mistake which is +EV but more often than not Proline will kill you with juice

Id rather have ineffiecient lines with high vig than sharp lines with low vig.

Lots of off market numbers that you can exploit.

Dont know why I like more offshore books than playing here, they released a site last year but it was terrible :S

**dj_destroyer** · 07-25-11, 12:38 PM

Proline is easy to exploit... it's just that the opportunities to exploit them are diminishing. I use to live off of Proline a few years back... was cashing about +$1000 a month on average. Edges are almost non-existent now.

horrible odds

Funny thing ....

Poindexter used almost exactly the same words when I was talking to him some years back.

Amazes me how most people just never seem to be able to grasp this concept.

ProlinePlayer = only reason I ever made money on Proline. The guy is a king among men.

Will go to Canada soon. then may try that sometime.

they were supposed to get nba back in ontario last year. I called them every month and all they said was we are in the process, why say it if you can't do it. The nba are hypocrites , they play games in the u.k. , yet tell ontario to take games off the board

But they don't have a team in the UK, big difference.

what am I missing here? u were unable to wager on "Proline" for NBA games last season?

**beermankirk** · 07-26-11, 08:06 PM

I owe a ton of gratitude to proline player for helping learn about edges and how to beat the bclc.

The regular lines maker must be gone for the week, because there were another 5 good 1% to 20% edges on Tuesday, and 5 almost close to being edges -1 to -5%.

I usually only get a ticket in 2wice a week, now, instead of twice a day , due to the odds. But if you live in the bclc region and ignore the oppurtunity, you are definetly losing some $$$ making chances.

the nba isn't available in ontario, they a press announcement that it would be coming back for 2010, but it never did

**beermankirk** · 07-27-11, 01:21 PM

3rd straight day of edges on BCLC sports action, regular lines guy must be on holidays. 9 edge or almost edges. + 2 obvious ones on props.

**canuck** · 07-27-11, 03:35 PM

Proline odds are brutal. The Quebec card and Atlantic Canada cards are much better with a smaller government takeout. Still a suckers bet

**CanuckG** · 07-27-11, 03:36 PM

^ truth

nice name btw

**sharpcircle** · 07-27-11, 04:55 PM

what type of bets, are you getting, do you have to bet more than 1 game or prop?

**lifemagnetic** · 01-26-12, 09:56 PM

Let's revive this thread. I am a BCLC player, huge $$ to be won. I have had 4 major wins since dec 2, 2010. people say the odds are bad I guess because you are looking at the money line of offshore books and comparing it to a "win" on proline/bclc. But, it's almost the same as buying points if you think about it, so why not go for the games you think are close and pick ties? And yes, sometimes on points there are edges, like big ones, if you hit it early enough and do your homework - as they do tend to pull games right off the card. they wont change lines, they just take the games off entirely. early bird gets the worm

**the_situation** · 01-27-12, 12:04 AM

proline/sports action is a joke
only for long term losers u cant even straight bet lmao

only thing they might be useful for is getting stale lines in your favor as they dont move lines off opener

**SpreadSniper** · 01-27-12, 03:07 PM

I've cashed a ticket on a stale number which I woulda lost otherwise more times than I'd care to admit...

Proline betting is ONLY for hitting those stale numbers... best time to get at those government outfits is when you notice vegas is slow to release multiple lines on a given day... chances are you are going to enjoy some free points on multiple games should you like the given side.

Today for instance if you like IND you get em at a mere -0.5. Should you like Dallas you only have to lay -1.5. Mia -9.5, and so on.... The other night when Love hit that 3 vs the Clips they had the Pups as a +9.5 dog!... I'm not saying they are great long term bets but can be profitable if you pick your spots correctly.

**Capn Morgan** · 01-27-12, 03:49 PM

lol wow they have miami heat to win the title at 1.50 and to win the east at 1.40 what kind of a joke is that come on!!

**Chong Wizard** · 01-27-12, 03:52 PM

I sometimes play sports action but only on oddset and picking tie games... almost hit Ole Miss and Nebraska yesterday but fuckin Nebraska won by 6... 1 point off a tie game... lol...

There is a lot of soccer matches on the menu for tomorrow... any soccer specialist see any possible draws on the menu?

I live in Vancouver, and used to play it before I started playing at online sportsbooks. The lines are atrocious, to the point that even the increased accessibility and cash payouts do not make for a fair tradeoff. What makes the situation even worse is that the issue of allowing single-game sports betting in British Columbia has been promoted in recent years, but has been shot down as not being part of the image that Vancouver is trying to promote

They're selling it as taking an ethical stance against gambling because it's an industry that preys on the weak and contributes negatively to society.

Allowing single sport betting at fair odds (where one can actually play with an edge) is immoral, but allowing and encouraging those new to the sports betting industry to play parlays at bad odds is allowed... Fortunately the BC Liberals are on board with the expansion of the gaming industry in BC, so here's hoping that eventually progress will be made on this front.

Isn't there a federal law in Canada that prohibits single team wagers?
