I'm pretty new to Bet Islands, use it for alternate lines, but I have come across an odds gliche in their system. If you bet $25 on -110 it costs you $28 to make the play instead of the correct $27.50. If you bet $125 it costs you $138 instead of the correct $127.50. I know it isn't a big deal, but anytime that there is a gliche in the system you have to wonder if you put in obscure bets will the odds be juiced up.

Just thought I would point this out, Im not claiming to be a math wiz and maybe there is something I am missing, but 5dimes and every other site I use that has lines at -110 on $25 should charge $27.50 to make the bet not $28. Like I said not a huge deal only 50 cents, but makes me wonder how this gliche has gone unnoticed.

great catch

Jon will most likely reward you for finding that glitch in the odds

this was brought up in another post and said it works both ways sometimes in your favor.

I just wonder this, if the system has a gliche on a small number such ast $25 what happens when the complicated math comes into play, lets say on a complicated 5 team parlay mixing moneylines along with straight odds? I have to wonder if the odds are correct. I guess if you bet there you just have to accept and be cool with the amount that they tell you it costs to make the play.

its not a glitch, is rounding. i have no idea the books motivation for rounding all there bets but if the customer is smart enough you can make it always go in your favor (assuming you bet above a certain amount on your wagers)

OP,how did you end up laying -110 at BI?

[sharpcat]

Break your bets down.

Instead of betting to win $140 at (-110) place 10 bets to win $14 and you will give yourself (-107).

they round up or down.. they dont use cents.. do what sharpcat does it works. takes a little time but its the way to go.

Haven't seen this since the old days of Intertops... Curious what would happen if someone made 20 $10 bets instead of one $200 bet all the time to take advantage of this. Would the book have grounds to nullify the wagers after the fact? I would think not, but I wouldn't exactly be shocked to see that happen (a book claiming that this is a form of cheating).

Use your brain and use the risk option and risk $27 to win $24.54, which rounds up to $25. You can also bet to win on moneyline dogs and end up risking less than you need to to win the same amount. Simple math.
