Since I don't follow steam, I typically assume that I can get any number shown on the Don Best feed. So I save time by just spitting out what I want, along with the odds shown. This generally very well.
But just in the past week I've had two "errors" on the screen at Olympic. I know they were typos because I checked their website. But the bad numbers just stayed there for over an hour.
Then there have been two incidents this week, also at Olympic, where I've spit out my play, heard the clerk yell it out (without specifying the odds), see the screen change, then have the clerk read back the play to me at the CHANGED screen odds. I declined the wagers, of course.
I'm not rushing to blame Olympic, since I'm not really an old pro at all this. Perhaps some others of you (who are) can shed some light. I'm interested in who asks for the line, vs. those who try and save time ilke myself.
