Tony at 5 dimes banned me for betting incorrect live lines. For instance often times they’d reverse a -300/+250 line in live betting so if you were watching for it you could jump on it. What they would end up doing is they’d end up cancelling the bets due to “line error” and ban the players that bet the line, sometimes only waiting till the game was almost final. It was complete bullshite since it was the book’s own errors and sharp players should bet lines that are in their advantage.

I’m interested to see if US books have the same policy, I doubt they do. In Costa Rica, the books had all the power and treated players like shite. In the end however, Tony got what was coming to him and was murdered down there. No way a book like Draft Kings does that. They probably honor all bets that bettors make regardless of line.

And arbitrage line shopping only occurs if the line moves at the same book and you bet both sides. Rarely it ever moves enough to create advantage. Different books you can do it like -125/+150 which is 4%. Every gambler would take that edge but rare you can find it enough times. I ususally bet both sides in live betting as a hedge to lock in a win
