    The Sportsbooks have made a 1 million (or more) dollar mistake when setting the lines for the Loyola Chicago vs Davidson game!!

    The line opened at -4.5,  then it was quickly adjusted to -5.5 within a few hours of open, BUT... the sportsbooks realised they made an error, although did not correct it far enough.

    The play is Loyola Chicago -4.5 (-125)

    for 5 units!

    I have no idea whether you are right or wrong here - BUT if it is an obvious error it is not advisable to bet that - because every bookmaker has in their rules they will void obvious errors - and then a lot of them just freeroll you - where you lose if the bet lose and they void if you win

    Don't mention the frogs - we don't want to scare the toddler - we want him to sleep

    @Calde13

     mate it's 1 point, not 5 ....

    And it isn't a "line error" so to say where it gets corrected to -10.5 by kickoff.. i am simply saying the traders and linesmakers have this game very wrong.

    I see you are begging the mods to let you out of the box…

    I’m surprised you weren’t actually BANNED from Covers for creating an actual thread suggesting another forum member be shot in the head…..
