    Dual lines

    Genuine question for SBR: Is dealing dual lines a factor at all in sportsbooks ratings? I'm aware of Bodog and now Heritage as A books who have dual lines. Are there any other A-rated books doing it?

    I have read other posts that claim Bovado, Heritage, and Betislands all do this.

    IMO dealing dual lines is fraud, and should make any book doing this be blacklisted.

    dual lines equals risk managment , if you dont like a line at a certain book dont bet it there .. pretty easy people should stop victimizing themselves

    I only complain when I see SBR carrying the square line on their odds. Post the sharp odds and it would be more fair.

    I have a feeling Heritage is actually trying to profile players beyond underdog/favorite, sharp/square. I've seen some lines way off market (and way off their own published lines) in baseball that seem to shade the teams I have bet in the past. If this is in fact what they are doing, it's very foolish...

    SBR -- is my question unclear, or otherwise unworthy of an answer?
