Is it just bad luck or are they playing games with me?

Half the bets I am placing, the lines are changing half a point after I click "Confirm my wager".

Yesterday I bet on Siena 2H. Clicked "Confirm my wager" at -2, they say "odds changed" and I get -2.5.

Today I go with Northern Illinois +7 2H. I click "Confirm my wager" and it changes to +6.5.

Thanks, I am winning but it's strange because they advertise that they're a "professional book" and don't limit their players.

They are not screwing with you...lines move rapidly on all halftimes....

Yep Viejo is right on this one guys.........bookmaker second half lines move like crazy. I've been on cold and hot streaks like everyone but I've never had that problem or any problem with bookmaker.

The line movements did not matter in the two examples you have they were both winners!<><>

Sometimes it works in your favor. I haven't tracked it, but half time lines are more volatile. Also happens when I bet more than 5 bets on one ticket. The problem is it doesn't tell me which game's line has changed. Takes a minute to figure it out when I play several games on the same ticket.

It's just crazy that practically every bet I'm doing it changes, I know lines change but when it happens more than 50% of the time when I'm placing bets in less than 10 seconds that raises a flag.

I have worked at bookmaker in the past...they get a halftime bet every 10 seconds...best to call in your halftime bets on the 800 number....same with quarter wagers also...

I've actually had the line changes in my favor before. No complaints with that. Maybe because I took the square side. :ohno:

I've been with BM for a year and they have been good to me. One thing I don't like is the 15 cent lines on Golf matchups and the limited options. I see 5Dimes offers 10 cent lines on golf matchups and they have lines on every player. 5Dimes also has reduced juice.

Anyone know what the fee is to do a sportsbook transfer from bookmaker to 5Dimes?

Way too much. Cost 100 to move 2k.
