**rolemand** · 05-29-06, 11:27 AM

right now, MLB: Cinci/Cubs U 10.5 +130, U 10 +129

I e-mailed them about 1 and half ago (after the huge movement ; the line started @ 10 @ -105/-105) and nothing..

Maybe the huge line movement was caused by Pinny itself, because the bug disallowed arbers to arb... resp... they are waiting for a fix.

Strange or not... I cannot say my bet U10.5 (+121) and O10 (-115) was bad (result 7-3

)

They had the same problem yesterday with the Rangers total, I emailed them when I saw it and they said they were aware of it but didn't fix it. Maybe a problem with the number 10 and heavy vig?

Really?! It must be some problem in their models and they will wait till their professor comes from California

Normal bookie could simply delete the strange odd. I hope that this "10" will be lucky again. Expect some other nice line movements, that is caused not by fundamental factors, but by the Pinnacle bug. Or someone can explain todays movement @ totals @ 10 from -105 to -155??

The line movement has absolutely nothing to do with the "bug".

How would you use the error in the Pinnacle lines?

In case the line movement WAS caused by the bug as I wrote below, I will simply use it as today whed got a side.
If You write "The line movement has absolutely nothing to do with the "bug"." so please use arguments. I asked firstif someone can fundamentally explain the line movement (fundamentally: injuries, weather etc...) Thanx.

**slash** · 05-29-06, 06:13 PM

Because the bug was useless for scalpers and middlers.

Enough answer for you?

**Lucas** · 05-29-06, 06:28 PM

No that is not enough

You wrote "The line movement has absolutely nothing to do with the "bug". " I am asking you third time how can You say it? I do not have any fundamental info. But I do not say it does not exists.
The bug was probably VERY useful for arbers and middlers (my small riskless win of 1203USD is a proof) and I wrote why: I repeat.
Generally: If there are no fundamental factors for huge movement, but the one side can not be betted at the right price after small random "ripple", the market can collapse and thus the movement can be incited just by the ripple and the bug.
There are some assumptions to say that. The most important is: Pinacle is price maker. And I am saying that because who else has such volume and possibility of buying and selling points?

To be worth anything, the bug should have been the same way if you wanted the over, which it wasn't.

Congrats on your middle anyway. It had nothing to do with the "bug" though.

So for the third time, I ask you, how could this "bug" be worth anything at all? The value was in the huge line movement.

Thanks for congrats.
Sorry I have no power to repeat the answer. I did it in my last post

Thanks for the answer why "The line movement has absolutely nothing to do with the "bug". "
