They don't shop at your local or your offshore book.   They prolly aggregate dozens of lines from bunch of books or take the BoB and WoW of all books monitored.  Also some books juice the fuck out of ML's so you gotta shop around.  Either way who cares - gambling profit is determined by finding odds value over long haul, not trying to pick 20 in a row.  That's why Casinos in the Desert exist.

I think you misunderstood what I was trying to point out.

This wasn’t the "Streak Survivor" contest, because the money line was too high for that event to be available in the first place.

Both of these lines came from Covers simultaneously.

One was from Covers "Scores and Matchup" thread.

The other was the "King of Covers Contest."

I just found it strange that for the past week or so they’ve been "messing" with the contest with jacked lines.

Btw, shopping around is the best way to have a chance at beating the books IMO. I have eight books that I constantly monitor and will only play the best line whenever I make a bet.
