The Cold Line
The short answer
A bet struck well before the event, often at an early price, with its own non-runner rules.
Knowing the language is step one — knowing the true price is the edge. The Cold Line’s signal desk tracks the no-vig fair number and the closing-line value behind terms like this, before the market moves.
You take the number now, weeks out, and you live with those early-price rules.
