Right now they are offering Cincinnati -200, but no line available for East Carolina.



It's a joke. Compared to their shady tactics of confirming bets when it is advantageous to them and price gouging, offering one side of an event only may be the most egregious of the bunch.



I am aiming to take this place down. I am building a case against the owner for operating an illegal gambling operation and funneling money through a United States organization.

Canbet used to and perhaps still does (if they still exist) put up a dollar amount for each bet. The dollar amount was how much they would take on that bet. With each bet they received they'd deduct that dollar amount. When there was nothing left that side of the bet would take no more action.



So this is not unprecedented.



"Egregious" is when a book quotes a phony line like Bodog - or when a book posts a line and then changes it when one attempts to bet it, but they would've accepted the action on the other side.



DirectBet is doing something similar to Canbet I believe. He takes the action he wants on a side and takes it down till he's balanced.

So what? It's a bit annoying, but no more annoying than if he left it up but moved the odds to the point that no one sane would bet it anyway.
