I don't complain to much because there's usually not much reason to. Something I find funny is that 5 dimes opened a fight before EVERYONE yesterday. That had it something like this....

Corey Sander -125
Elicier Castillo +105

on boxing they take $500 bets usually before moving them. Being that they were the only book that had this fight they made the limit $250

I bet the fight before I went to bed

When I woke up today the line was .....

Castillo -150
Sanders +125

I bet on Castillo (250) and they move the line up 35 cents. What a bunch of shit

I guess it's not as easy to make a line when you aren;t copying from others

I think it's pretty shitty that they reduced there limit because they had no confidence in there line. I find it pathetic. Anyways, I am mostly just venting

Valdosa,
You seem to know how to take your boxing leads.

Val,

From fellow Georgia resident, on an obscure fight such as this, the fact that they are moving the line like this is probably a testament to your boxing wagering skills.

BTW, 5 Dimes is solid IMO so they're just making sound business practice on their behalf.

Sorry it reduces your payoff.

5 dimes isn;t a bad book, they are pretty good. As Lander mentioned though, they are pussies

I just don;t like how they made a limit on a fight that only they had (at the time)because they were pussies. I'll probably lose now that I am complaining about it.

BTW- There line sucked ass. Castillo should have started at -200 (at least). He started at -240 at thegreek(today). That's the main reason I guess I was pissed, they had a crap line that I couldn;t hammer to much

Val,

For serious, there are probably only two other psoters on this forum that can understand the lines on this boxing match that you do.

I try to follow boxing myself but I don't even know whon castillo is, although i did see sandersw kncok out klitcshko.

Good luck on castillo and if he wins, trust me, I'll be following you more closely.

when I lived in Vegas I used to bet dimes on college basketball, A lot of times I bet at a joint called Palace Station, its still there. Anyway, I bet say Wake Forest -3 for a dime, immediately a clerk would drag a ladder over infront of where that game was posted on the wall, and move Wake to -4, all off my lousy dime. I did it lots of times, used to show off some times with girls. The funny part is that I was'nt sharp or even known to anyone in the book, it was just the money that moved the number.

wil.

I know that you and I spoke about this a LOT. The thing is, 5 dimes spelled his name correctly so I think they got the right guy (after I thought about it). Also, if it was Corrie Sanders (the guy that smashed Wlad), I think he would have been a HUGE favorite over Castillo. Castillo is nothing special and could very well get knocked out, I would make him a pretty big underdo to Corrie Sanders though. I think they just don;t know what the hell they are doing. I hope they don;t try pulling that bad line shit afterwards, sice they spelled the name right they got the right guy.

Val as a boxing bettor,

trust me we are better off when these guys post about crap they know little about,

even if we can only get down for a couple of bucks.

just my opinion.

Yeah, my $500 win was better than nothing. I wanted to put $1500 on Castillo though.

Thanks for the compliment, been kind of inconsistent lately but I do OK.

As for Sanders, jeesh, 310 pounds. Sanders has been a fat ass for a while though. Castillo's weight kind of worried me when I saw it for 1 reason. Castillo weighed 208 against Cley Bey, he weighed 224 for this fight. Regardless, he is a way better boxer than Sanders. Can't wait for tomorrow night's fights
