    Pinnacle has raised max wagers for tonioght

    Pinnacle today has raised today max bet over most NBA games from 28k to 42k.
    That is significant increase,what could have made them raise the max by 50% over
    most games today?The increase only over the spread line wagers

    Any thoughts what could have made them do so,curious if it means anything as to
    which direction to look for tonight.

    ok guys out of 8 games they raised the max over 5 games,

    kept it as is over 2 and decreased max over 1 tonight.

    If it was just as you assume wouldn't they raise it over all 8 games?

    Is the decreased game the Rockets/Nuggets game?

    There's nothing unusual about this whatsoever... It happens every day. It just means that the prices on those games have stabilized (they're getting two-way action).

    For the past two weeks since started betting there i have not noticed even once
    an increase of max amounts anywhere in NBA section.and as far prices there was
    no movement yet so how is that goes along with the increase/decrease?

    Its because they havent gotten as much action on that game. If the action increases up till gametime then you will be able to wager near or at the max. All books are like this, especially when the line comes out, once they get enough action the limits are increased.

    So basically you saying that increase/decrease even in significant percentage has nothing to do with game outcome,but then why would all of a sudden be such a significant increase in betting volumes according to what you implying today and None for instance the past 2 weeks even not over games like Celtics/Lakers Heat/Magic etc' where you might think there would be more "action" than normal game is attracting?

    Possibly because the Super Bowl was yesterday, alot of money changed hands. So what were the maxes the last two weeks?

    I really think because of the action of today's games, its pretty high I think for being so early in the day, especially the Lakers and Celtics games. I guarantee the Rockets/Nuggets game max will increase by gametime and one would be able to bet that 42k.

    They probably lowered the max on Rockets/Nuggets due to uncertainty of Melo.
