I want to add something here. I don't mean to say, necessarily, that the books are taking a position when I imply they opened the line where they did on purpose.
But note that I mention the decent volume. The originators, who can be books as well anymore, help the books in their desire to generate action. The early money came in, as it has tested limits and dropped the line and now, with the early money slowed down by limits and now only a TD to take, the public can continue to and come in further this week on the favorite.
The opener helps to generate action on the game, in that sense, and I can see it in the early volume generated.
