Have you ever moved a line before?

[SBR Lou]

All by yourself?

[accuscoresucks]

i dont even have the balls to rate a bet a 10* = 1 full unit
i would say no i have not

[darrell74]

I had friend tell me that 50 k moves a line by a half point. Of course, I don't really know the intricacies of a point spread moving. What do you guys know?

[pat venditto]

ace rothestein changed the columbia line from +7 to +6

[SBR Lou]

I pounded a bet earlier tonight for $14 and the line moved 20 cents

I moved the juice on a run line once. Back in 2005. Athletics -1.5 +140 for the limit (500) at Sunset Station. Then hit it again at +130 for the limit again. It dropped to +120. So moved it twice.

It was a game on July 1st, 2005. White Sox (Contreras) @ Athletics (Harden). The Athletics won 6-2.

This comes to mind, because I had to get authorized and wait to the line moved to bet it again.

[pat venditto]

u can bet for fun and still bet to win pal. its not rocket science

[Iwinyourmoney]

During ncaab pre march madness when I posted o/u and sides I swear sometimes lines would move with 15 minutes a after my posts. Call me crazy. I never bet enough to move lines but I saw it happen. I'd be watching sbrlines and it would trickel at the books

[Wheell]

Simple answer: Yes.

[smallon]

I bet to win money and that IS FUN

[LT Profits]

Yes, but overnights only. WSEX and 5 Dimes.

[woodg8]

I wagered quite a large amount on Felciano Lopez yesterday on Pinnacle, (had a pretty big arb) and the line moved from 1.36 to 1.336. Must have been others jumpin on him at that price as well, or it was me

[guitarjosh]

Bet the max on props at the Greek.

A few seasons back the Kings were like +185 -1.5 against a team I KNEW we were going to bury (NY Islanders)... bet $100 on it at BetUS and told my buddy to do the same 5 mins later. He calls me back and says "Is +160 still good?" that was cool.

I was at the game... Kings take the 3 - 2 lead in the 2nd and no scoring in the 3rd... I'm praying for an empty netter but the Kings go on the PP, negating an empty net try. I'm bummed... until Frolov buries a goal with 17 seconds left to give me the cover. Needless to say, I don't think I've ever been much more excited over an insurance goal.

[pico]

moving the line is easy.

[jjgold]

Depends what books, if you use outfits that do not have a lot of volume $300 will change the line and other books that have lots of volume maybe 2k and up might change it.

[BuddyBear]

How would you ever know if you moved the line?

[bigblue74]

no they probably would move it with me!!!

[HeeeHAWWWW]

How would you ever know if you moved the line?

If you repeat bet and it moves both times :-)

[rake922]

at 5 dimes.... I just bet 1200 on over 7.5 in Mariners/Padres game line was -120 ....


30 seconds later it was -125

[BeatTheJerk]

ace rothestein changed the columbia line from +7 to +6

u mean frank rosenthal aka "ace" get your facts right boy

[Wheell]

I would know. Wouldn't you know? I think you would know.

There is one way to know for certain: Call up Spiro and ask for 30 dimes on the side of an NBA game that he doesn't want action on. The line will move against you before he takes your bet. Decline the new line and you'll have moved a line without wagering a cent.

[ManOfValue]

No, never . But when I start moving them you'll be tuned in....

[mathdotcom]

At Pinnie you can move chess lines so much you can scalp them right after.

[steelerfan]

I get the feeling you're speaking from experience...

Nice hit on Nadal

[MrX]

Limit bets at Vegas books move the line at least 5 cents virtually every time.

[katstale]

yes

Thank you. And yes, I have first hand experience of Spiro's douchebaggery.
