CRIS opened Taylor/Spinks round prop at 9.5 under
the rest of the world is at 10.5
These guys are extremely sharp and they have it at 9.5 for a reason.
 
Thoughts?

if you think Cris is one of the largest books then obviously youve only gambled online and a rookie. Cris is a joke. they are just like Bodog. A typical square online gambling site. Of course they have made billions. Not cause they are good but because EVERYONE loses in gambling. Why? Well, because of people like you and myself that think they can read lines blah blah blah. Reason this fight will go Under is because Taylor will just crush this Spinks character. But, come on why do people still try to read lines? EVERYONE today said theres a reason why the Over/Under for the hockey game is so high at 5.5, and everyone tried to out think the market and bet over. Sure enough it went under. Or the Yankee game. EVERYONE said why is Glavine such a small favorite over a no name. Or why is Smoltz such a low favorite. Of course everyone bet versus the two great pitchers and got rocked. If you look so much into lines, did you ever think ab out REVERSE TRAPS. Maybe Cris has trapped you into thinking this fight will go under. Just a thought

Reverse traps? You sound silly my friend, do you really think the linesmakers know the outcome of an event before it happens?
 
 But then again, you do refer to Spinks, as a "character" and that clearly speaks volumes to the level of your overall knowledge.

LOL!  Just, you simply don't know what you're talking about.
 
I made my living as a professional sports bettor for 20 years. I'm retired from it now but I can assure you that CRIS is one of the laregest books in the world. It caters to squares as well as sharps. They have agent AND post-ups accounts. My credit line is 50k even though I never bet large amounts anymore. I DON'T believe in "reverse traps". That is the square in you talking. I DO know that some sharp books shade lines. CRIS has done this with everything from horse matchups to elections and they're quite good.

You started it. Im not here to break balls. Just giving you a heads up. But, I'll tell you how you lose creditability- you cant come here and insult our intelligence by saying, "I have gambled for 20 years and thats how I retired and made a living out of it." Look my uncle has booked for 9 years. He laughed his ass off on your comments. So, you're the one percent of people who made a living off of gambling for TWENTY YEARS? I'll make a bet with you. Let's follow all your picks JUST FOR A FEW WEEKS and I GUARANTEE you'll be down money. Yet you say you crushed the books for 20 years. But, it is kinda cool to have a "sharp" and only guy I have met in my life to beat the odds for 20 years right here on a MESSAGE BOARD on a Saturday Night. If I had your money with all my winnings I'd be on an Island not a message board made for DEGENERATES!

Traps, reverse traps...blah blah blah.
 
I think it goes over 9.5 and 10.5 personally. If you get better value, take it.
 
Don't know either of you from Adam, but just9012 is coming across like a real dick. Guy comes in asking if anyone has an opinion, he calls him a rookie and blasts his book. Then claims anasamas is losing "creditability" (lol) because his "uncle" ran a book.
 
Nice job with the caps lock though douche bag..really added emphasis.
 
I'm hoping Spinks wins it...has a good boxing bloodline and anything can happen.
 
In the future, I'd suggest avoiding terms like "our" when talking shit just9012, because you certainly don't speak for the forum...

The thing I didn't get ....... Taylor -900 to win......8 1/2 over -130 ..........Taylor by decision +220.........Taylor by KO or stoppage - 165.......One of the wierdest set of fight lines I have seen in a while..... I guess they figured Taylor would finally catch Spinks in later rounds if tired.

Refer, that was an intersting line you had. I looked at 10 books and they all had 10.5, except for CRIS.
Better hang on to that guy!
 
 
Just, you are a total moron.
Yes, it went over and I lost. The fight had zero chance of going over the way Taylor fought,
Every shade is not going to win. You were wrong as well as you stated:
" Reason this fight will go Under is because Taylor will just crush this Spinks character"
 
I have the 50k credit limit at CRIS because of the way I bet with them in the past.
Same limit with Grande, another agent account.
 
I could give a rat's ass about your beliefs. I live in San Francisco and was able to buy a home because of my
sports betting success back in '97. It was a bumpy ride those 20 years but when I gambled it was my only source of income. The biggest bet I make these days is a nickel. I do it for fun and cigar money (Cubans are expensive). Five years ago, I quit and took my money, rolled it into the stock market and presently trade for a living.
 
BTW, it's credibility not "creditability" you ignoramus.

Correction..it had zero chance of going UNDER the way Taylor fought.
 
He's not going to be able to be a spectator with Pavlik if he has the stones to fight him.
