Meh I don't mind the added juice. You figure majority of people only bet on a few teams anyways. Helps to hedge against big hits, esp since bookies here don't have as large of a bankroll to sustain it.



Hahahaha



Itโ€™s more so bout being transparent. The adjusted vig is fine if heโ€™s more transparent about the manipulated lines.

And rofl at the people acting like running a sports book is a community service

It's just the favorites that got juiced (about 20). The underdogs were unchanged.

I've actually done this for at least two years without anyone noticing or caring until now lol.


Fact is I can't sustain the book if I can't earn a profit. I need that juice to stay afloat right now. -30k in three weeks doesn't bode well for the future.

People are welcome to bet elsewhere, of course. I don't mind. The main reason I started doing this was to provide a place for easy betting tbh.


Pretty sure you didn't do it it in weeks 1 and 2.

Lakeshow runs a book every single day across multiple sports with Vegas's unfucked lines. I'm pretty sure you'll be fine. You do this every year, worry about losing early and then you make it all back. STFU and reap your profits and stop trying to f people over with your lines, or just don't run the book. Its not a service its a scam with those lines. Jesus the amount of suck y'all have for a bookie is incredible.

I forgot to do it the first two weeks. Been doing it for the past couple years in NFL, and no one seemed to notice or care.

Odds are right there on the first page, so idk why people think it's a trick. L2R I guess?

I usually win in the first weeks and use that bankroll to weather the more predictable middle weeks, so you're just making stuff up there.

At the end of the day, I can't run the book if it doesn't make a profit. If I have to add vig to the favorites to make ends meet, then that's what I'm going to do. Same with my unique parlay rules: it's something I have to do to not go broke (parlays kill me the most, hence these changes). It's not like I'm a real sportsbook taking in thousands of transactions. I can't live on juice alone. I rely on upsets, which leads to lots of ups and downs.

It's a free market here on jsp. I'm not making anyone bet with me. If you don't like my odds, just bet with someone else or make your own thread. You're wasting your effort complaining to me because no amount of crying is going to convince me to change what I do. I've used the same rules for years because it works. I'm not likely to change them.

I invite anyone to open up their own book. Plenty of other people borrow the rules and methodology that I came up with and wrote down. I invite anyone to use them and start their own book. By all means, put me out of business and I'll die off like any other failed business in a free market.
