Exactly. I've never once received a bonus from a book for alerting the book to a bad line and there were times the clerk actually acted annoyed that I was bothering him, not to mention that I was wasting his time, so I've given up on trying to do any favors for books, not to mention the issue of alerting the book that I know a good line from a bad one.

This, not that I was expecting anything nor was I betting it. One guy told "the line is correct, you know how I know? 'cause I posted it!" I forget the actual number but they were giving the season win total of the Braves to the Dbacks.

I would ignore it.

Last thing you want to do is get on their radar.

I always thought the etiquette was make the wager, alert the book of the bad line, and your bet should stand.

Yesterday 5dimes had the +2.5 lower than the +1.5 for the Bluejays game. I told them, they fixed it, I didn't get diddley. That's ok, but something would have been nice.

yet if you would have bet the game they would have free rolled you.

thats why they are a shit book

you try and tell tony he fcks up and they slap you in the face you bet one of his mistakes and he slaps you in the face


so fck the book and don't do the job they are supposed to be able to do themselves.

Odds are the bet would have been canceled before the start of the game and the player would have received an email about it.

[diondublin]

When I see a bad line, I occasionally bet $1 on the other side, just to see if it would have been cancelled

What happens here? Experiences please!

I've notified 5 dimes of errors at least three times and never even received a thank you.
Notified the Greek once and got a 'we'll look into it'
after that I stopped notifying these books of errors

[jairocon]

I notify pinnacle fairly frequently - usually I get a thank you reply. There's really not much to expect from it - except the fact that if I can't bet the bad line - nobody else will Anyway, betting a bad line is a risk, you will most likely get a cancellation of the bet anyway.

About a year ago, i alerted betjam about a hockey game that started at 11:30 on a Sunday afternoon. It was noon and the game was still on the board and one team was already up 2-0. Cust service said thank you, about 15 minutes later a got a call from a lady manager (forgot her name) and she personally wanted to thank me and gave me a $100 freeplay. They definately seemed thankful for the help.

Bad lines should be reported on a "sticky" thread openly on SBR. If sportsbooks are truly sincere about being grateful to players for pointing these out- should be no problem at all.
