    Every single book, huh? Any evidence for this claim?

    Lots of books deal dual lines and some up to 5. If a book is dealing 4 and 5, pay the 20 cents if you want the other line. Doctors, lawyers and many others charge on a sliding scale. It's no different. Charge people different amounts.

    I think the word you're looking for is "misconstruing"

    It's very different, actually. You don't see market makers in Wall St. simultaneously making different markets depending on incoming order source, do you?

    Just call in the bet, but give the book the wrong side. After they deal you the dual line, say you want the other side.

    thats not at all what dual lines is

    dual lines doesn't mean you get an instantly worse line on any side you try to bet

    it means the book gives you a line set that they think is favorable to them based on their guess about what kinds of bets they think you will make in general

    i am sure any book dealing dual lines will give you the same line set whether you call it in or see it online

    a lot of the books that deal dual lines pull that crap where they only take action on one side, betus and bodog do that. bet the other side and they tell you oops the line moved and give you a worse one. justin7 made a video about betus doing that.
