Can someone explain this 2H line to me?

[GoSaints]

Ok so I check the Atl 2H line on Bodog/Bovada...

Not logged into my account...
u 17.5 is EVEN

Login to place bet...
u 17.5 is -115

Thinking ok, the juice just got worse. Take bet. BUT then logout immediately and refresh lines and again EVEN. Log back in and again -115.

Repeat the above 3 more times and each time with the same result.

Does this mean they are juicing my lines based on my previous plays or am I just crazy?

:shrug:

Just a guess, but maybe LIVE vs DELAYED lines. :shrug:

I do know some books deal different lines to different players depending on player betting patterns. Not saying bovada/bodog does this.

I do know, if they did do this it gives a sharp bettor an advantage.

Sounds like you've been marked up as a sharp (dogs and under) or the majority of your totals are unders.

As Jack says, its not uncommon. I know one book that 'pinged' me and used to shorten anything I put on a slip. So I use to select the opposite of what I wanted on an In-Play bet, but not actually bet it. They would get the alert and while they were shortening it, I would quickly take the other side. Only worked on the live stuff. Needless to say the account was already on low-limit they soon closed it.
