Wow man your books let you bet on these kinda stuff? I'll say if he's gonna pay up and honor the bet you can get a real good middle there.

yea i doubt theyll pay u off if u bet the line now. id rather not even go thru the trouble. dont online books even have policies where they wont grade the bet if they believe they messed up the line?

even if u got even money on hoffman right now it would be amazing. hes simply got no one on his tail at this pt.

Thats why I asked..how reliable is he cause if he says no bet and dont pay that will be some hassle for you. If he's a stand-up guy and will honor it then it def is a nice price for you there.

Huh now you got me confused. In your first post you said local guy. If its online most likely they will void.

Well if its a mistake they will. I cant see their line being that off base compared to the other lines. They can do it and thats the reason and you cant do anything about it.
