Why the difference in lines?

[NicksPicks]

I noticed that to play on the cubs at bookmaker ML it's -115, but only -103 at bodog.ca. I routinely noticed huge line difference between Bodog and other sportsbooks.
Is there a reason bodog's lines are so much cheaper? Has anyone used them and are there any issues with payouts? I'm thinking of opening an account but it seems all the talk is about BetJam and The Greek, etc.

Thanks.

Most of the books are running around that -103 line, however Bookmaker must have had a lot of money dumped on them for the cubs and they are hoping more people will go with Seattle or make it more costly to take the line on the Cubs. In theory they are trying to balance the money, of course this rarely happens, but it is basically how lines move.

Oh, and if you were going with the Greek, their line is -110 currently vs BJ at -105. BM is not know for it's value in baseball line, although, I do fine sometimes they have the best lines, but definitely there are other books for more consistence bettor MLB lines.
