BetOnline Giving Targeted Odds?

[sportsbettor5]

I've noticed in the past few months that BetOnline shows a line on the odds screen but isn't actually offering it.

For example, I tried to bet a +180 recently, but got the "line has changed" message and was only allowed to bet at +175. Refreshing the browser doesn't change it---the line facing the market appears to be +180, but the system won't let my account bet it.

This has happened multiple times over many months, which makes me think this is BOL's form of limiting---they don't limit me on major sports, but instead give me consistently worse odds than the market. Has anyone else experienced this?

Which odds screen, which market? And are you using their new software or classic?

I highly doubt they're dealing you a different line.

Just normal MLs on pre-game, new software. I've been with them for years and this never used to happen. After beating them pretty badly, it started happening.

Recently they started freezing me for 60 seconds between bets (no re-bets for at least 60 seconds). Then they stopped doing that and this new behavior started.

The new software shows stale lines for hours so any time you go to make a bet, there's a good chance the odds change. It is horrible for displaying current odds which is why no pros use it.

The 60 second cool off for a re-bet is normal and everyone has that.

This comes and goes for me. I don't think it's currently in place.

Good to know. I'll try to get the interface to default to classic. Thank you.

Classic is certainly the way to go. Their new site is too clumsy.

It's always in place if you max bet.
If max is 5k and you bet 1k, then you can bet 1k again immediately. If you bet 5k you'll need to wait 60secs or for them to change the line. This is for all markets.

You should definitely switch to classic.

This is not my recollection. Typically I max bet and then the line moves immediately against me, but I am allowed an instant rebet. At least, that's my recollection.

The 60sec rule only applies if they DON'T move the line.

Ok, makes sense.

I faced the same problem!
