local only has 'day of event' lines

[JayLA]

Hes got a major edge huh. The lines are all calibrated......
That fukkin sucks. Kind of negates the offshore structure....where you can get a looser line earlier than that of gameday.

I forget the numbers but Wong says spreads don't always matter...another poster once claimed he had statistical proof that spreads matter about .33% of the time. He provided charts when I asked him for proof of claim.

Bobby-something....respected guy.

This local of mine..god bless his soul.......only takes action on 'todays game' and by then the lines are sharp.

I should be looking for another local, huh.

Thanks in advance. Good luck today. Hope you play some props and not sides...another thing my local kinda shrugged off.
Im learning offshore has its benefits.

Lets make some money. Fukk bookies and their opportunistic mentality.

Best move to make is find a local that uses a Pay Per head Service. This way you can wager early like offshore, but still meet the Man on a corner somewhere to settle up. Know someone that has this arrangement and it works quite well.

Hey thanks for the response.
Im aware of these PPH sites. My guy northeast uses them. Im not disciplined enough to use that credit line.

I dont want this to become a thread about locals and their policies.

Im just pointing out how sharp that is.....only allowing bets 'of that day.' The lines have been pretty much bet into cement....and that all edge you have of line movement Is gone.

My last three loses, which i posted, I can attribute to how
Sharp the line I got was. It sucks. Bookie won.

Friends keep telling me to do like them, use offshore but have discipline...cash out regularly. But I cant shake the fact they charge you to cash out. Wtf is that ?

Some guy on these boards once mentioned how they have the right to charge a fee....but I disagree. Its my money. They offer free wires when I deposit 300+....yet can only cash out once a month? What the fukk is this a bank?

Maybe im naive. Either way, his 'day of event only' policy deters me.....might have to post up again offshore and work on my discipline..could have used a tease yesterday....lol....

[Easy-Rider 66]

Don't you have a credit line with your local right now? And yeah he is smart to offer only lines the day of the game if he has customers that agree to it. But especially for football, I would not use his book. Much better options out there.

[JayLA]

Yea cash up front is the best way to do business.. less funny shit.

Posting up and credit and people start feeling entitled. Good luck today bud

[JayLA]

Fukkin hilarious...im getting asked if alicia keys will mess up anthem...."this is crazy"
-160...
Will she mess up? LOL

This is what i got.. best thing ever.

[MoneyLineDawg]

My local gives us lines in the morning of the games......Can still hit soft lines and steam right up to gametime

Not sure if your local is like this

[trainermatt81]

Does anybody have a local in New York?

Bitching because a local book has sharp lines on game day, even though he's the one risking a felony arrest, asset forfiture, and spending many hours a week working, stuck in a room to hopefully grind out 6% or 7% of his volume, and then have to ride around all week paying out and collecting, and then have a few people who owe come up with some "excuses" on why they don't have it all. And yet, you think he should put lines out early in the week and make a lot more work for himself, when the only clients who would even think of betting early lines are arbers, or line shoppers. 95% of his customers could care less about early lines, they just want to bet on the day of the game and watch it.

Then, you bitch because offshore books, who are set up to offer you those early lines, might actually charge you to receive money more than once a month, even though its only a small amount compared to all the expense they occur in processing.

So, are you one of these people that think the whole world is supposed to revolve around what you want, and should do it for free?

Get a clue son.

You live in a country who views sports gambling as illegal. That means the free market is not at work. You want the convenience of a local, then deal with the locals way. If you want the lines of an offshore post up, then deal with the occasional withdrawl fee. If you don't want to deal with either, do something else, and stop wasting peoples time with stupid complaints.

[PassTheDutchie]

It could be worse, I have seen at least one place that only gives out a line 3 hours before game time on CBB.

There are bound to be locals that have early lines, just got to keep looking. Good luck.

Whoa! You're absolutely right.

I'm going to back on up out of this thread...especially since it was just bitching about losing.

Tip o' the hat, sir.
