This does NOT always happen. Sometimes, they will just place their bet and get on with their day.
I can tell you are putting a lot of stock into RLMs. As othes have stated, it can mean several things:
1) sharp money is coming in on the other side
2) books are trying to lure squares with an enticing line
3) many other variables that cannot be predicted with enough consistency
If you must use RLMs in making your calls, be sure to integrate it with other factors or you will get buried.
