          very common misconception that you need to be winning to be limited

          if they don't like your style they can discourage you from playing

                Nah you don't need to do much of anything to get switched off that feed. You could probably make 4 or 5 $20 bets on their good dog lines and they'll switch you off the square feed to the regular feed. Unless you bet stupid shit like Yankees -1.5 -120 when every other book has -1.5 -110 or Lakers -7 -115 when every other book has -7 -110 you won't last long on that "square feed," regardless of how big your bet size.

                    That sucks, but as other have said, it happens.

                    The bold part made me chuckle....

                      They are not the only book doing this. I am starting to think this is common protocol for the industry.

                        I don't think I've struck it anywhere else.
                        What other books have you found doing it?

                            Last time I looked Bodog had a A- rating. I don't know if anyone else
                            has notice, but Bodog marks up all their favorites higher then any other Book's.

                              Bodog and BetUS are the most well known books that deal dual lines. Not sure of any other big books that do it, but dealing dual lines is strictly against the NV gaming commission rules and probably against the rules in any licensed jurisdiction.

                                    I have just compared with my friend.

                                    Half point differences in most NFL games already he has his laptop right beside me refresed with the latest odds.

                                    Tommorow I have KC +5

                                    He has KC +5.5

                                    Bodog Becky comment on this?

                                        You need to clear your cookies first, because Bodog stores a cookie on your computer to show you the line set they have you on before you log in. Alternatively you can just use two different browsers.

                                        Bodog Becky will post incessantly about the "latest CalvinAyre.com party" or will post a big list of all of Bodog's licensed brands, but ask her about the dual lines or some of the other shady crap Bodog pulls and you'll just get crickets. If you call Bodog and ask them about it, they'll lie and say "Lines are changing all of the time" even if you load your account and your buddy's simultaneously.

                                          is there anything I can do to change back to the other lines(which I assume are more square)?
                                          throw in some parlays?

                                          ....should I ask them about this

                                          SBR mods any opinions on this?

                                          are there any others books that do this? the only other one Ive heard is BETUS( which is a c i think)

                                          Bodog should not be close to an A-

                                            They're giving me different live odds and halftimes.

                                            Should I call them and complain?

                                                    What always amazed me was that bodog puts the square set on sbrodds... Honestly how many people checking any kind of line service are going to be on the square set for longer then a bet or two? Even on the sharp set they still have the best price once and while but it sucks having to manually check every time when you know that the line posted on the screen is going to be significantly worse 9 out 10 times...

                                                        Why can't SBR use the account for SBRODDS at Bodog and bet a few dog teams to get the problem solved?

                                                        The incorrect odds showing at live odds just drives people away from using it if they don't get what they see here.
