what the reality is that sportsbooks make a lot of money on juice. They don't want the public to get crushed because that's not a profitable business strategy long term. People get crushed, people get discouraged and they stop betting
they want the public to slowly bleed to death by hitting about 50% and losing money on the juice long term. That's how you make money as a sportsbook
and you take about the houston bet last night, well the public bet a lot of money on the tigers as well. So that's your 50% right there
