    The Greek Has Crappy Lines For NBA

    WTF!! The Greek's lines are messed up for buying 3 points. The lines are -220 just to let everyone know.

    I want to continue to use the Greek, because I just switched all my money to there, which isn't much but all I can use for betting right now.

    I also bet on hockey, some nfl, and am going to bet on MLB when it comes time again.

    Any suggestions of books that have good lines for buying 3 points for NBA (for example maybe better than -180 or so?)

    there is a reason for this, and it certainly isn't this
    sell points don't buy them

    they not worth much

    5dimes charges the same to buy many points. So does pinnacle.

    Any guess why?

    Buying 3 points in NBA is either -210 or -220 at many books, so Greek is not "Crappy" by any means.

    -180 on WSEX, but I might first direct you to the thread "WSEX Slowpay Updates"

    Buying points is always a good way to lose money in the longrun anyway

    The books don't have a clue?

    I think they should do what WSEX is doing, have the players lay -180 for their 3 NBA points, and .... tell them to send it on in.

    Thanks kmarinouofm, maybe I'll try that next time.

    I checked Betus(my old book) and their lines were -170, but I don't really want to go back to them.

    I live in the US, what about the Wire Act? Also, if I do wager over the phone, should I use a cell phone or landline or what?
