Looks like Detroit is going to have another RLM again this week. I'm thinking Detroit is a solid play at +13.5.

Detroit does not quite meet the criteria for an RLM, namely because 46% of public is on Detroit, not quite 30% or below. And on a side note, not quite 10,000 bets on the game.

Also, I have already taken Balti +3.
Many faces of Bmore

Bmore isnt 2 yet, what i was saying is take Bmore now at 3 before it moves to 2 and becomes the RLM play of the week....

How about Kansas City? It looks like most of the public is on KC ATS and the line is trending upwards. I liked this line anyway...
-
10-15-09 04:49 PM #41
I also took Kansas City, but the line opened at +6.5 and remains at +6.5. Don't see any movement there.

no rlm on KC.. not even a movement at all...??

.5 RLM on the bills and saints.. fyi.. but NOT 1 pt.. no play yet (unless you try to beat the line, but it could correct itself like the early rlms this week)!
good luck and keep looking!

Minnesota is down to -2½ (which means Baltimore will once again be a popular teaser choice), with the total falling to 43½. I have to say a lot of sharps are betting Baltimore totals like it's last year instead of this year. The defense looks to have lost a step, while the offense has improved. Everyone definitely wanted the full field goal here. And, maybe the public will bet Favre back to -3 on game day, bringing in more sharp action on the dog. Weather won't be an issue in the dome. Sharp totals players are happy with their current positions.

scoresandodds, vegasinsider, and SBRodds. I was asking about KC because I thought it was trending towards some RLM last night. Maybe it isn't.
-
10-15-09 09:54 PM #48
I use bodog and the lines for the bills and the saints remain at +10 and -3 respectively. Still looking.
Good look though Robust.

Looks like slim RLM NFL pickings this week:
As of 10/16/09 @ 5am EST (SI free site)
http://www.thespread.com/nfl-footbal...-betting-chart
New Orleans (v. NYG at NO) 29% (24071 bets) -3 (open) to -3.5: RLM 0.5
only other RLM I see is:
Buffalo (v. NYJ at NYJ) 36% (12840 bets) +10 (open) to +9.5: RLM 0.5
NO or BUF are not prime RLMs at only 0.5 points.
Better to handicap these game further.

What about college? Is college out of the question? Maybe for college the number of bets could be relaxed.
I take it the Pitt game doesn't qualify because the line is moving the wrong way?
What about Iowa--Wisconsin?
Thanks

I've been following and betting on RLM games all year. I'm totally confused by what you guys are saying with the Det/GB game. I always use the SBR link at the top of the page for Live Odds. All week the money has been on Det and yet the line has improved for them dramatically from +11 to +13.5. To me that says GB is the correct bet. On Tues it was at like 65% and now it's at 56% as of this post. To me that says some people picked up on that trend and started betting GB. Where do you see that only 46% of the public on Det??

I agree that this week is a little light on the RLM...unlike last week. But I'm seeing a few more games to watch: Originally Posted by jon13009

Atl opened at -3.5, 61% on them and the new line is -3........RLM .5
SD opened at -3.5, 52% on them and the new line is -3.......RLM .5
I use whatever the opening line is on SBR Live Odds and then I compare it to the BookMakers current line.
I went 4-1 last week doing this with my only loss being Houston which should have covered!

Saints looks like RLM to me, -3 to -3.5 (huge on NFL) on 31% of bets.

this is fvcked!! 5 rlms.. i don't trust it, but there they are..
Hou +5
STL +9.5
NO +3.5
Jax +14
NYJ -9.5
make sure it is a ONE point move.. over 60% bets... over 10,000 bets.. 1/2 points don't count in my book..
good luck!!

As far as I can tell at 7:00 am this morning, none of these are a play. Originally Posted by Robust

was buzzing last night and made some stoopid mistakes reading the lines.. Originally Posted by TGoat

If a team is favored and the line moved DOWN when the majority of the public is betting on them, you bet the other team. for example, hypothetically speaking, if the Niners are -4 and move to -3 with 70%+ of public on them and over 10,000 bets, you would take the opposing team.

There is RLM on this game. More people are betting on NYG and the line is improving for them. That is RLM. Originally Posted by dmolition

Only RLMs on 10/18/09 are still:
NO (v. NYG at NO) 37% (57918 bets) -3 (open) to -3.5: RLM 0.5 - problem RLM<1.0, %close to 40% (best if percentage bet is<30%, RLM >=1.0)
BUF (v. NYJ at NYJ) 31% (42149 bets) +10 (open) to +9.5: RLM 0.5 - problems RLM <1.0, BUF away.
Slim pickings this week.
Both NFL RLMs are weak RLM plays this week. GL.

.5 RLM...not as successful as full point...do a steam play if you see sharp books move the line RLM before game time.
-
10-18-09 06:09 AM #66
hopefully more obvious RLM next week
-
10-18-09 09:13 AM #67
theres no RLM this week IMO...gl everyone

It seems like there is a bit of confusion on what RLMs are and a variety of interpretations. Originally Posted by jon13009

When the team with the greater number of people betting (say greater than 60% and over 8000 bets made) gets the reverse line movement (eg. NYG +3 to +3.5 - 61% bet)), It means Vegas WANTS you to bet on that team.
The NYG is a reverse line bet, but the NYGs are the team NOT to bet on!!!!
NYG is what Vegas wants you to bet (Remember vegas want the line to be 50/50 becasue they profit with the Vig whomever wons or loses).
Vegas is steering you to bet on the NYGs with that RLM!!!!!
If Vegas tries to make the percentages move away from 50/50, then Vegas has a stake in the game - they want the team with FEWER NUMBER OF BETS TO WIN. (and screw the larger percentage of people betting.) As such if Vegas moves the line in a manner that does not move it towards 50%, they are steering people to go with the favorite.
The team with FEWER number of bets (eg. New Orleans -3 to -3.5 39% bet) is the team Vegas wants you to bet against. Thus, Vegas is betting on New Orleans, and it is usually in your best interest to take NO. Since this is only a 0.5 RLM, it is a minor variation, but remember 3 points is a critical value in any game. (versus -4 to -4.5...)
To find a RLM.
1. Look for teams with LESS than 40% bet (best, less than 30%)
2. Look for RLMs (The line gets worse for the team)
-Say -10 to open...to -12 = RLM of 2.0
-Say +5 to open to +3 = RLM of 2.0
-Say +1 to 0 = RLM of 1.0
etc...
Best RLMs are >1.0
If the line is +/-15 or greater the RLM has to be a minimum of 1.0 (personal preference)
3. I think RLMs are best when the HOME team is given the RLM
- This is the classic fade the public, take the home dog - with the advantage you are betting with Vegas if an RLM occurs.
So far this week....
NO 48 NYG 27 - NO +3.5 = W
BUF +9.5 in progress........Last edited by jon13009; 10-18-09 at 04:15 PM.
