Can't be true

In Response To: It has moved already (Stingray)

how quickly did it move?
I am almost certain that they have moved the line on me on Greek sides/totals often in the past, but I wouldn't ever think this to be the case for Premiership. Agreed they have changed their line plenty of times on some big leagues (Premiership, CL) only shortly after I have posted here (which is within minutes I bet them always). But I am almost 100% sure it has happened because others thought those were good bets as well and their action 'corrected' the line. I could have happened to be on the same side with pro soccer bettors. But change the line on such a major league on my trivial action is out of the question.

However, there is something I am impressed with Pinnacle: My action is really small on soccer (like $150-$200 or less on a game) and yet they indeed change the lines on me on Greek sides and mainly totals these past 2 years,proportionally to my bets!. I have seen 20 cent lines move full 20 cents in 5 mins or even 30 once! What I am truly astonished about (and I keep repeating to myself 'it can't be true') is that the guys on Pinbet don't change the Greek soccer lines on me on much heavier $500 or $600 or more action when it is arbable (with Canbet most of the time)!!! As if they know 'this is an arb,no problem'. If they really do this, what can I say other than this shit is unreal and that this is way the best-organised book in the planet?
Don't get me wrong, I am trying to be reasonable about this but more than half my Greek league bets have had worse odds for them later after I bet them (since last year). Only 3-4 or less have had better odds later (one was Aek last week,can't remember another). Again, given my small action and the fact that I don't have big following (even if the readers bet my picks, they are only like 7-10 regulars of them) this is probably a coincidnce. Otherwise, if they truly move them on me, then they really mean they don't care how much is bet but who bets it. I wouldn't be surprised if they do read this or other forums too. But I would be more than surprised if they changed a line of a Premiership match or total on me, no way this can have happened.
