The Pinny lean is one of the more overrated topics ever talked about on the forums in my opinion. Pinny is really simple, they take a bet, they move the number,take a bet, move the number, very simple and effective concept especially with the volume they accumulate. When you see a Pinny ncaa hoops # in the morning at -2.5 -135, all that means is that side has been taking action and pinny's automated software is moving the vig. If no one at pinny is watching the screen (often the case early in the morning) you will see #s like the one above. Pinny's automated software only moves the vig on a given number, it doesn't move the base number. It takes a human to do that. Then the guy from pinny shows up and adjusts the number to -3.5 -110 or -4 +100 etc. The only reason the juice piles up like that at Pinny is because other people are betting that side (still good information but it's not Pinny doing the leaning on their own).
