Most none of you will probably appreciate this, but:

It's pretty funny interviewing a linesmaker who's entire job is to watch pinnacle and move. In his defense they do quite well at this, you will never find a line to bet at legendz. And they don't offer anything (no props, no quarters, limited halves) and they have tiny limits. So, basically loshak is interviewing a monkey that could be replaced by a script. But, it's funny how they do well every time a favorite loses and poorly when they win.

Must be lots of dumb bettors out there.
 
I'll have to take a look - I'm surprised a lot of these books haven't downsized to scripts in this economy

Legedz did, they cut out their pig skin which was -107. Assuming they have the players, which they must, their business model is pretty tough to beat. Doubt anyone's getting rich, and their linesmangager isn't worth more than 22k a year.
 
Just watched the vids - I wonder if Legendz ends up being more exposed to various bets than other books if they're straight copying lines as opposed to trying to form some sort of balanced action (he mentioned Argentina futures in particular). Still, that exposure is probably on the plus side of things in the long run.

It seems like most of the books copy to a certain degree, but I've seen bodog go the reverse direction on a yankees ML before opening pitch (see Sunday's Dodger game), as if they're trying to balance out.
