    If you're saying the line moved twice and you agreed to the last line you were quoted, you have no complaint.

    If you're saying they gave you a line you did not confirm, that's a different story and most definitely unacceptable.

    My understanding is that it's the former. In any case, if you're a recreational gambler who doesn't want multiple accounts, find a better shop to be your one and only.

    About what time did you place the bet? If the clerk hadn't officially entered the play the line can still move. In the Wyoming game, there was a lot of quick movement on the total yesterday. CRIS had the following changes:

    7:02:52 136
    7:09:31 135
    7:09:44 134
    7:10:02 133
    7:10:02 133'
    7:10:43 132'

    If you got caught in the middle of that move at your book, it could be legit.

    I totally missed the part where you mentioned it was Wyoming under, my bad.

    That was an RAS release, which is why it moved as StevieY posted above and definitely a legit move.

    I don't really bet via telephone, so I can't answer that question specifically, but in general, I would start with other A-rated books at SBR like TheGreek, BetJM, 5Dimes, etc. And you can of course sign up through BiggerBonus.com for an additional bonus.

    Hope this helps.

    Regardless of whether this line move was legitimate, there are a lot of bad things written about BetED on the SBR forum, so you might want to try a better book like the ones Goats mentioned.

    thanks captain they were easy to beat with the movement..after the read back and i verified with my password ..anywhere ealse would be a done deal for at least the forty years ive been playing..tgo pull that they should be running out of sponsors.. going back to bookmaker and bet jam if they ever put the totals back up. im shocked that edward is waiting for bookmaker to give out the totals..the greek and 5 dimes have all the totals up even added games..

    Edward is waiting to give out non-TV totals b/c there's no way more than a couple people could get down right now and even then it would be for tiny amounts. Greek has a $500 limit (and doesn't appreciate when you bet steam) and 5Dimes cuts most people's limits to lower than that. RAS simply can't release plays in a market with no liquidity.

    My experience with Greek and 5Dimes is the same as Goats.
