BOS @ MIA O/U 200? Seriously???

[Mocknroll]

What am I missing here? The East has been all about defense all playoffs, and now we're getting a West-type o/u number.

Going by the spread the books are giving us, I cannot see this game ending at 104-97. I see it being more around the 92-84 mark.

I will be locking in the u/200 before it moves.

Any thoughts?

[Sport_Fish]

My book doesnt have the lines up but im finding it hard to believe that line..200? Did the books think GSW and Nuggets are playing in the ECF? =S

And if that really is the number, than 80% sure its a trap, and over is probably the play.

I've looked around and cannot find a total on this game at any other book. I have no idea why an Aussie book is the first to release this line. Normally the Aussie books just follow the US books and are about 30-60 mins behind line movements. Will be interesting to see what number the more reputable books set this total at.

u better bet a lot of money on it

[1Time!]

I think they are owned by Paddy Power & they have opened at 200

Cheers for the heads up, I unloaded a shit load on under 200!! Now it's 194.5

Still a great number to have if you missed out on the 200...

[Mocknroll]

I also dropped 5 units on under 200 which is my max bet. Considering that is my max bet on a line that would be considered even, I should have unloaded on a line that I knew was off. Anyway, best not to get greedy. Max bet is a max bet for a reason.

Line is now at 194.5, which still seems a little high to me. I will be very interested now to see where the other books open this.

Hope a few people jumped on this before the large line movement!

Thanks for the heads up on this line! I ended up seeing this thread, immediately logging into sportsbet and getting it for under 197! Just after it was confirmed the line dropped down to 194.5.. Good value imo, especially those who got u 200!

[Domestic]

Absolutely shocked to see the total that high, as you said even 194.5 seems high.

[Mocknroll]

I feel good when things like this happen. The books clearly have an edge over the majority of punters, so it's nice to get the edge on them for once.

This is the second time sportsbet.com.au have 'slipped' on a MIA/BOS game and I've bitten.

Earlier in the season they listed a MIA/BOS game twice as 2 separate markets, so I parlayed them together and it paid out. Love it when that happens.

[defineentvinny]

all I got on my book is Miami -8. I want the ML & series ML to come out already!

[Tarrum]

Bwin and 888 don't even have the total score yet, how I wish it would be 200..Good luck man, that's a great one.

[aussieH]

I added more on at 194.5. At worse I can buy out and lose thejuice


Thanks Tiger. We Made a mess of those hawks on the weekend

[alister888]

Just opened at bet365.com O/U 179....

[AceKingHigh]

O/U @ 179.5 @ PINNY lol

[alister888]

Sportsbet has now moved in line with the other books (now 178.5). Good luck to those who loaded up on the earlier value, lets get it

[KnowingNothing]

How much did you guys get on for?

[Mocknroll]

I only got on for $500. Seriously regretting not loading up on it. This is 5x for me. Probably only 1x or even less for some other SBR users.

[thetrinity]

ill be surprised if that doesnt get cancelled.

you're joking, right?

[necro]

they should not cancel it, it's THEIR mistake and they should pay it.

IMO

[thetrinity]

i agree but books r shitty, most have a byline that says obvious errors get cancelled.

[alister888]

I just put 500 on the U 197.. I think sportsbet were one of the first books to open and in hindsight, I should have put more on considering the opening odds at the main books and the subsequent movement from sportsbet

[SpreadSniper]

thats crazy... my books have 180

[ThaBigG]

I still can't believe I got it @ 200! I'll be so pissed off if they cancel it

[1Time!]

My 2 cracks at 200 & 194 haven't been cancelled & I doubt they will be because it wouldn't be an "error" if they only adjusted to 194 the 1st time around..
Im spewing that I just as I was having a 3rd crack after seeing Pinny open at 178(?) they moved it down to 178!

[Sunde91]

So impossibly inexplainable and inexcusable you might wonder about some collusion scheme

Really what was the thinking to move it to 194? "Oh, people are pounding a US total we are clueless about, move it 6 points should be good, don't bother to do a simple fact check, and don't worry if no one else on the planet has a line for it yet"

amazing amazing incompetence if this is a true mistake

[KnowingNothing]

It was an error by their market setters, it's their fault they aren't as sharp as the US books.

I got on for $750.

[Swizly]

gah centrebet pretty much shadow the pinny spreads. at 180

[easysaid]

As sad as it is, books are gonna cancel any bets placed at these odds,

Post back if theyve already done so.

[That Guy]

The bets are still showing as approved (mine are anyway).
Loaded up on this twice - at 200 and 194.5.. These numbers stayed in play for well over 12hrs overnight till the US totals got released. Now it's at 179.

[Sunde91]

Mistakes happen, but this is beyond comprehension

They didn't get beat on a slow move, they opened 10+ hours before the world, in a sport outside their expertise, with a line 20 pts off up for hours and hours more

Collusion or the book is the biggest mickey mouse operation ever seen

[yisman]

makes no sense why these books would've listed those lines

no American book would've posted lines like that. A cursory glance by their linesmaker could've told them that 200 or 194 was way off.
