When guys think bookmakers want equal action on both sides
The biggest crock of shit only a jackass would believe. This is from an online book. Explain to me why this line isn't moving big time to get that equal action.
The quote
"Any Rams backers out there? 85% of the money and 88% of the bets are on the 49ers (-3). Monday Night Football odds"
Just because they want it, it doesn't mean they get it.
Do gay bookmakers try to get equal action??
what small time book is making that proclamation?
Books do not depend on one game to get action. They cleaned up yesterday.
pavy they got killed at 1 oclock. Did okay at 4 and would have done great if it wasnt for Cousins and won Sunday night. They won but it wasn't anything to talk about. And if u are a book from Philly u lost cause of Sunday night.Originally Posted by pavyracer
obviously u can't read a line cause they are all getting hit like that. Nobody is taking those shithole Rams.
Now check out the story i just posted and look at what i highlighted. If all that money was on Denver why not move that line to get equal action?
wo last-second interceptions returned for touchdowns by the Denver Broncos and Arizona Cardinals delivered million-dollar blows to Las Vegas sports books, including a $600,000 hit from boxing champ Floyd Mayweather Jr. Broncos cornerback Aqib Talib picked off New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith and returned it 22 yards for a touchdown that covered the point spread in the Broncos' 31-17 win. Mayweather bet $815,000 on the Broncos to beat the Jets by more than 7.5 points. He laid -130 juice and collected $1.4 million from the CG Technology sports book at the M Resort.
[+] EnlargeAP Photo/Bill KostrounAqib Talib's late pick-six sealed a victory for the Broncos and a loss for sports books.
CG Technology's vice president of race and sports, Jason Simbal, confirmed the bet to ESPN.
"Floyd didn't watch the game here," Simbal said, "but he certainly showed up shortly thereafter to cash."
Talib's pick-six electrified crowds at the sports books across Vegas and caused six- and seven-figure swings that went against the house. It also caused some damage inside the back office of the MGM Mirage sports book.
"The place went absolutely berserk," MGM's vice president of race and sports, Jay Rood, said. "I kicked a hole in the wall. I'll leave it as a reminder of my feelings toward Geno Smith."
The Broncos were the most popular bet in Vegas. The Westgate and Aliante sports books told ESPN approximately 95 percent of the bets on the game were on Denver.
"It was devastating," Aliante's sports book director, Marc Nelson, said.
The bad beats weren't over for the books, though. Arizona defensive back Rashad Johnson picked off Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins and returned it 28 yards for a touchdown to cover the spread in a 30-20 win.
"Those two interceptions cost us a half-a-million dollars," Rood said.
Don't feel too sorry for the books, though. They still won money on an eventful Sunday.
The Dallas Cowboys' upset of the Seattle Seahawks, coupled with the San Diego Chargers' failing to cover the spread against the Oakland Raiders, were big winners for the books and helped them overcome the tough beats.
"We were in a spot that we would have probably been up a million five after those games," Simbal said. "Instead, we were only up a third of that. Because of the Raiders covering and Cowboys winning, we ended up in pretty good shape today."
thor, i can read a line. what book is coming out and saying this though?
Cardinals pick 6 sunk my battleship too.
another book and he has it at 4.5 and still can't get anyone on the shitty Rams. U could offer 7 and still get San Fran money. This is why this is all red meat for nitwits when they say that shit about equal action on both sides
getting 89% on the ML & 79% on the -4.5 line over 44.5 total seeing 67% of the action
oh, i didn't read your last post...HA...
Now this guys line is the same. Why isn't he moving it? Almost like the books are taken a position. Imagine that?
Gulp. Biggest single game decision of the season. 84% of action on 49ers (-3.5) at Rams. 62% on Over (44).
you're pretty naive man. you think books clean up or lose their asses on a day to day basis? Books are in this for the long run. 1 game or a slate of NFL sunday games is not going to make or break a big-business book whether online or in Vegas. people that think about these things heavily are guaranteed to lose, esp. in the short term.
watch how the 49ers win tonight. public being on them and the spread not budging has nothing to do with the outcome of the game. its a factor to consider, but it should only be 10% of your analysis, not the determining factor...
i took sf money line to be safe because i think it could be decently close but we'll see

Most books do not take equal action that has always been a myth
Vegas want lop-side action... if they want equal action they can't even take care of their electric bill from the JUICE...period... now what lies ahead is the conspiracy theory... whenever there's legal gambling there is always a conspiracy...
Because it is their job to take a position. 3 and 4 are key numbers and books don't want to get middled. It's called risk management. And by the way Sharps come in with big money sometimes to offset all the public action. And all the services gave out SF. I will take shitty St.Louis plus seven. If SF was going to kill them the line would be a few points higher.
Boy the linesmakers could sell u shit and say it was lobster and u would buy it.
wrong wrong wrong and more wrong
