    If 90% of gamblers scalped only

    How long would it take before books closed their doors? Exclusive scalping would not be something sbr john would like. They are ok with some doing it as the minority of people who do it like zetapsi is like 1/1000th of the offshore gambling population. Imagine if gamblers like bobby started doing it? They'd lose their best customer.


    How long before some books would close shop?

    If everyone focused on scalping then no one would be able to scalp.

    Fair statement it would definately be harder but still when lines move its quite easy to find a slow book that hasn't. I've seen bad lines/stale numbers at certain books on saturdays for 15 mins before they decide to fix it.

    Stale i'm not knocking anyone for their losses. You can win money betting terrible plays mathematically for a while so their results are pretty meaningless to this point.

    sinner your right pal, sbrodds is displaying innacurate information. sbrodds shows pinnacle at -240 +212 but when i log in it shows -280 +246. unreal sbr trying to bury the scalpers here.

    sinner the pros like you and I use sportsoptions.com line service for reliable gambling information and needs.

    why would the line move if 90% of the action is just scalpers sitting waiting for a move?

    You lost time. And lots of it. Time is valuable. Time is money.
