thx for this..i  dont track NCAA as much..as you know just love that first week FCS action!!!

Could be..I dont care if they have 100 tickets and on team and 30 on the other..i care about how much money is wagered...tracking # of tickets..WTF cares?

you should be more concerned with the number of tickets.  Thats easy to see.  Everybody and their brother at work likes one side on the monday night football game and they all turn up wrong.  The majority of small type bettors have a hard time betting unders and underdogs.

When I see a line move beyond 7 with no buy back from sharps, that's a sign I want to be on the favorite. That thing went from 6.5 to 7 to 7.5 to 8 to 8.5 with ZERO resistance. Plenty of public money eventually trickled in on the Bills and that enticing touchdown cushion.

 

I generally focus on small home dogs, but I'm also more likely to take a big favorite than a small one. Just how I roll.

This is kind of akin to the market velocity theories some stock market investors follow, but I think the undercurrent there is the assumption that big investors (institutional or otherwise) “know” something the public doesn’t know. Here ... what? That Peterman is starting, that he was horrid in his previous start (I’ll discount the snow game), that the Bills lost the entire left side of their O line in the off-season, that Baltimore looked sharp in preseason whereas the Bills looked completely unready ... in other words, the sharps knew exactly what anyone who was paying attention knew.

As far as how books operate and approach a line, they will shade but damn near never gamble. The notion that they're setting lines JUST to trap idiots is fallacious. It certainly happens, but it's not their original intent.

I hit a nice score yesterday with the UB money line and A & M +9.5 so I am taking a shot today.

 

I teased the Ravens to -1.5. I also used the Rams, Bengals (money line), Vikings, Panthers, Saints, Browns (money line) and the under in Skins vs. Cardinals (not all in the same bet obviously). 

 

 

Not too give myself too much credit but that’s 6-1-1. ??

Still learning NFL betting, question -

 

looking at the link provided the other day for odds the Bills are shown as +2.60 to +2.80 for this weekends game http://www.vegasinsider.com/nfl/odds/las-vegas/money/

 

Over on 888 poker they are shown at 3.40 https://poker.888sport.com/bet/#/filter/american_football/nfl 

 

Is this a different way in displaying odds or is the gap as wide as 2.60 - 3.40

sorry driddles, just coming back to this thread...i am not quite sure what you are seeing. +260 would have indicated for 100 you bet on the Bills to win the game outright and not take any points, you would get paid 260.

 

For instance, when I click on that link now, the Bills say +1000..so, for every 100 you bet, you get 1000 back if the Bills win the game outright.

Curious what you all thought about this..does house owe?

 

https://www.npr.org/2018/09/19/649622527/what-are-the-odds-fanduel-says-it-wont-honor-huge-payouts-after-error

BTW, I have made one small freaking bet on pro football so far...liked nothing last week, and don't see a play this week either... I just a sissy boy!

 

Maybe a teensy bet on the Bills and the points,  plus an even teensier Bills moneyline.

Bills line is now +8, as I said it would be. Easy money. Bills probably lose by 3-6, they won’t lose my more than 7. I said this in a random thread the other night. I expect the spread to go up another half a point and then get hammered down by sharps and probably end up back at 8 by kickoff.

 

 

Yep, easy money.

 

For the house!

+ 150 on the Jets tonight has my interest...everything points to a Browns win...but when was the last time you get1.5 odds betting against the Browns, and the public was on the Browns?

 

Game time decision as they say

Between that and the under you might have an interesting parlay

+ 150 on the Jets tonight has my interest...everything points to a Browns win...but when was the last time you get1.5 odds betting against the Browns, and the public was on the Browns?

 

Game time decision as they say

My money is on the Browns.  So the right bet is to do the opposite of what I do.  

 

Re: The question on the odds, I was just surprised to see how much better the odds were for that game on a different site.  Is a wide difference between sites normal the night before a game?

 

If so I should get registered with a couple of other sites and go with who offers the best odds on that particular game.

 

Most of my lifetime of gambling is poker and craps.  I'm only beginning to try and understand sports wagering.

I'm betting on Temple to cover at home vs Tulsa tonight.

Years ago when the Ontario government added soccer to proline betting they made a mistake where they forgot to account for the time zone difference.

 

They accepted bets after games had ended.

 

If my memory is right they paid out because the optics of not paying out aren't good.

one year they put a full slate of December 26th soccer games from England with the betting deadline well beyond time zone differences

 

 

the best bet was the over/under on NBA games, the line was declared on Friday for an entire week, it was easy pickings after injuries kicked in by the 6th and 7th days

Jets will have played 3 games in 11 days....they were exposed by a mediocre Fins team. The Browns Defense is legit, they win going away 27-13.

Browns will have as well correct? 12 days..that's right Jets were the Monday nighter.

 

I agree points to the Browns ...but damn..+150 on someone to beat the Browns??? Let that sink in for a minute. Plus the DVOA of the Jets D is actually higher right now then the Browns, as is the offense. Now granted, I think the DVOA after two games is really freaking a guess ar best...and I won't use their DAVErankings ar all. And let's not forget we have Tyrod Freaking Taylor running the Browns O...if the D does not set him up with turnovers and short fields...ya got a toss-up game I think and I would rather have Darnold in the clutch over Tyrod.

 

So.... ... that +150 seems suspicious to me too..almost likes they beggin ya to take the Jets on the Moneyline...

 

Prolly the worst strategy in the world..but i'm a gunna cook dinner, have a few pops..and then decide!!
