I've never heard of people getting kicked out of thegreek or pinnacle though ,only smaller books

I've also heard that Bookmaker has never reduced anyone's limits.

Equal money doesnt come in on both sides for most fights or games

My understanding is that it's usually pretty close.

Its not, people for the most part bet favorites in every sport so the sportsbooks usually are rooting for the dog to win/cover

From what I've heard over the years they deny they are doing it. People know they are because they'll look at the line on the website and it will be -3.5 and when they log in it'll be -4.5. I've seen people post that two friends log in at bodog at the exact same time and one guy will have a -3.5 line and the other will have -4.5 on the same game. I've heard that have software that tracks how you bet then shades the line against you

Pretty sure this is 100% accurate, although I would imagaine it is usually a .5 pt difference with the rare occasion being 1 pt difference and never more than that. They DEFINITELY track when you buy half points etc. (aka buying a 3 pt game to 2.5 or a 3.5 pt game to 3.) The software capabilities are tremendous, I know an IT Exec who did some consulting work for an offshore.

How feasible do you guys think it is to make an actual living doing this? Making 50k+ a year. There has to be a point where the book just gets rid of you. I know SBJJ makes a living doing this but he also goes to Vegas to place big bets. There must be a reason he does it that way. Anyone talk about this with real professional gamblers?

Some books will never kick you out no matter how much you win. Once you start winning alot off them they use your bets as info on which way to move lines
