If it happened once okay, But I always get the same message line has moved. Its never in my favor. They do this on purpose, you can try to defend them but Rio knows what they are doing. Maybe this post will change there ways with my account

99 times out of 100 if a line changes on me it will go against me as well..........only because I am betting at what in all liklihood is a great/best number.

I am shocked on the rare occassions when it moves the other way.

If you are a sharp sportsbettor, this is what will happen.

Do you consider yourself sharp??

You don't play much at Pinnacle then, about 30% of the time when the line moves on me with them it is too a better line. And that is when they offering the best line out there.

The Pinnacle and RIO situations are completely different...

The difference is one rejects bets made because a line has changed, the other changes the line to reject the bet at the posted line.

Same here Lakerfan...Pinny is the only place I play where the line changes work in my favor. Obviously they get most of my action.

I would hazard a guess that this is true.

Line changes at Pinnacle occur because the numbers are getting bet.

At Rio, I suspect that, for games that they aren't getting much action on, they just middle the Don Best screen. If you happen to try to snag a good number before they have a chance to move it, you'll get about a 10-second pause (where your confirmation screen is in limbo), and a "Line Changed" notice at the end.

Me too Fish except remove the word "almost".

I would say on a daily basis a line moves in my favor with them after a bet is rejected.

I don't play at Rio or Skybook for bases (although that 20% is almways tempting). But from watching their lines, they look fairly cloned and boring. Nothing wrong with that (that is how I would book bses

Don't bet at places like Rio if you have these issues. There's no other book like Pinnacle for me. They don't play games with lines and welcome the professional element.

All Books do this! The worse is when you get a line change on a confirm then click the line section again and see that the original line still stands! Ask your local book for a certain line on a cretain team , he'll think you like that team and add a half or point to if its a favorite or less if its an underdog! I use to piss my local off years ago by asking for the line on a team my pick was playing! He use to change the line and I got the better line,lol!

Not true... Olympic locks in your wager & you have 45 seconds to bet it, guaranteed...
 

And if the Road Warrior says it, it must be true..
