confirming a bet

[RobFunk]

anyone go to confirm a bet and have the line get worse? of course we all have.. .how often have you went to confirm and it changed and it got better?!

is it 50/50 or does it always seem to get worse?

ive had more to change for the better at Oly,, ive always felt they were on the up and up... wish that i would have kept track of my wins and losses in these situations..

95% of the time worse for me because I am usually trying to snatch up a GOOD LIVE number.

Since a lot of times I am racing steam, it gets worse. Not following, but see a position and all of a sudden, starts moving on DB. Only place I have a lot of better lines is WSEX. They seem to move on action, and that sometimes works out for me, by accident. Go for 2nd click, sorry line change, comes back better. Fun store. Best Wishes...OF

A few times the line has gotten better for me, but then I woke up.

My plays lately have been so bad that it usually gets better every time it changes at pinny or hollywood.

Seems to me I remember a time or two that I placed bets, went to the pending wagers area to check what I bet, and the wager I see in the pending wagers area was better than what I bet it at....

Like if I took the dog at +12....looked at the pending wager and it shows +12.5

I know it wasn't 12 when I bet it and I wasn't alerted to the change before I confirmed it...is there software out there used in some offshores that recognizes the change in line is in your favor and doesn't bother to tell you?

I can understand telling me if I bet the dog at 12 and the line change went against me and moved to 11....maybe at 11 I wouldn't want it anymore....I can honestly see that someone who took the dog at 12 would take them at 12.5 also.....but is there computer programs out there that distinguish that a line moved WITH the bettor, instead of AGAINST, and just didn't bother to tell him of his good fortune?

My opinion: Pinnacle seems equal on for/against changes, most at least alert you to a change before confirmation, and offer you an option, to bet at new line or not !

The book that pisses me off most, is SIA.

You have a +12.5 confirm , and get +12, done deal.

I'll deal with them, it's small anyway, but still BS software.

I hate when you try to confirm like 7-8 bets and one line changes andyou haveto wait nd refresh all for one game, then you end up missng a game because its no longer on the board...
