On this particular list, 5 is the third lowest percentage out of 10 numbers. It's not very significant at all, only to an unsuspecting public.
It will not trigger market moving decision makers coming onto and off of 5. It's an illusion created by the market.
That's the lesson I'm trying to get across. Heavy pressure pulls it off of 6, but the from 5.5 to 5 is basically bullshit. At any point, from 5.5 and 5, any sophisticated decision makers seeking the favorite will hit.
This is one reason the line is suspiciously low. The movement from 5.5 to 5 is likely a technique to generate action, almost mini steam, at a moment when market moving money may be triggered at 5.5.
The moneyline bets drove the action, then the books sustained it.
The books seek to generate action, and the have, on both sides of this line.
