Looks like the CRIS books (dsi, bookmaker, CRIS) are doing their annual MLB flip-flop

    I don't know why but DSI carries the dime line ML's all year while the others are full juice, but then come playoff time, they switch and CRIS and Bookmaker take the dime line and DSI goes full juice.

    It has happened again starting with today's det/CHW game.



    Whatever dudes.

    That happen last year as well I recall Mudcat, however I really never explored the reason as to why that is. Then again TheGreek did that as well I believe (used dime lines).

      You're right, Greek is sporting dime lines for the Oct. 1st games. If they were to do the equivalent of what CRIS does, they would move Bet Jamaica to 20 centers. I don't think they do that though, do they?

      Nothing up for MLB at BetJam right now.

        The Greek did do this last year!

        Guess they dont want to lose the action for the playoffs!

        I think its easier to handicap the playoffs!

          There is no doubt it is easier to win with the dime lines. It is a very pleasant thing to see them at The Greek. (However they still have the crap 20 cent line for today's game.)

            DSI did not change anything. They never used a TRUE dime line.

            They have used a dime line that breaks to 15 cents and 20 cents as the price gets higher all season.

            The Angels game is a dime line right now.

              Looking at it now, I would say you're right. When I looked at yesterday's game and noted how CRIS had the better moneyline on both sides of the chw/DET game, I assumed they had flip-flopped but maybe it is just a case of CRIS getting markedly better.

              Good news. Thanks for the correction.

                I always looked at betcris as a pro-book( a happy customer for several years)

                Sad things happened, they limit my account down to $15/wager. Seems times changed.

                    CRIs limit caps people online. If you want to bet big, give them a call.

                      No book I have played with anywhere in the world - and that's a lot of books - could make that blanket claim.

                        I've never heard of them wholesale limiting people to $15 though.

                          Sorry, everytime i see your posts i think "nacho cheese".

                          Back to the point, I agree. I run heavy money thru Cris and the worst I can say is they ask you to back off to 1k for certain type bets. Don't want to be more specific than that.

                          So i can't even begin to imagine the type of pain inflicted on Cris that would have brought abt a $15 collar.

                            I've never heard of them limiting people at all other than the way you describe Katstale.

                            Something seems odd then about someone claiming $15 limits.
