Sportbooks with "SOFT" lines

[bmboy888]

I know that Sportsinteraction is considered to have "soft" lines because they pump the favorties like CRAZY and there are some really good value in betting dogs.

My question is, other then Sportsinteraction are there any other sportbooks which have "soft" lines (places where there is constantly good value in the dogs)

I was just on the SIA site and they have Min Vikings at -8. Everywhere else has them at -6.5 or at most -7. This is what I mean by "soft" lines.
Thanks for replies guys.

I don't get it with the screwed up lines at SIA. Are their players that stupid or is it just bad bookmaking?

Get on the public line at Bowmans. You'll get the Cowboys minus 3.5 when everybody else has say -3. Of course the second you start taking the value they'll take you off it. he he sort of a vicous circle.

For real dog value go with Bowman's. Its just nuts. Expect a half a point for every football game but WAIT until 12:30 on sundays. If the line is 3 everywhere, they'll have 3.5 Sunday AM and -3.5-140 by game time. Sunday and Monday nights are the worst (or best) with the fav and the over climbing all day.

I really believe that with their mostly online play and small limits, SIA tries to balance their action with their lines.

What makes them different is that they will start out the week with early lines which already factor in the way their clientele is likely to bet. Much more typical is the shop that starts out cloning the big stores, then moves on their own square action on gameday.

Hello Group and Hobby...

I don't know if you're playing hoops or not but SIA in the past week has been moving as fast as the Don Best screen.
To me it looks like they have somebody knew watching the lines in the daytime because (IMO) they're moving their line's on 'air.'
Having been with SIA for around a year now they never had this much movement with their morning lines.
The same has been true on with their FB lines on a Saturday morning.

Even when ya pick up a soft line, SIA has become a real pain.
The last 3 Weekends they have been offline and this Monday nite too. Then when ya try to call-in and place a bet, nobody answers the phone because they have a damn answering machine on....
That's just amazing!!!!

Then last Saturday they didn't 'grade' any of the day games until 2-3 hours after they ended.

Finally one more vent...
They were booking Gore/Bush with their European decimal lines. Gesshh!!!!
I wrote them a few times suggesting that they book American events with American lines but just like the answering machine, nobody calls/writes back.

North America's first online Sports book could also be the first one out of business with their poor service!!!

Cheers,

I agree completely. The reason why I cashed outta there was because of their sh*tty customer service.
I asked for a WU payout. They say you can pick up the money within 24 hrs. I didn't get my money within the 24 hr time frame. Also when I did get my money they short paid me about $50. I didn't bother complaining since I did take around 2-3 dimes from them inside of 2 weeks.

are these red flags!

Have been with SIA over 3 years and never had a problem except their server went down, few years ago, and they gave me a nice Christmas bonus. I joined them because of their crazy lines, which they still have. I have received many payouts, allways by reg. mail at no cost. Taken fron 4 to 6 days each time. GLTA, Ticker

Does anyone know why SIA is not part of the "Bettorsworld fine family of sportsbooks"?
