The Boston/Denver line started out today in pacific standard time
10:19am Denver-1 at the LVSC (1st listing of line)
10:36am Denver/Boston (PK)
11:36am Boston-2
1:10pm Boston-1.5
Consensus numbers (Sportsinsights) show that Boston enjoys a 62% to 38% majority among bettors at this point. For a team to control a 3.5 point line move with only 62% from being a +1 underdog to being a 1.5 point favorite shows that the line is doing what it's supposed to do when the public has lined up as a majority on one side. The moneyline plays are 42% for Boston and 58% for Denver. So that my friend is where the real consensus is when a game is considered to be in a projected close game. And that is where the books will get their money. On moneyline plays for Denver. Boston moneyline is the right call, homes.
God Bless you.

You guys don't always need to thump your chests every time you disagree with the public money... A humble and modest attitude can go a long way...

If these 2 bets are coinflips (as you say they are)then how come the thread title doesn't read "Anyone who bets Gtown or Denver tonight are idiots"?

ie -110 coinflips
I dont care if I make bad bets. Its the profit that tells you how good of a gambler you are.

Because you can get +110 for denver and +118 for georgetown.
+110 coinflip = long term going to win
+118 coinflip = long term going to win

You said they were coin flips laying -1 and -2 at -110.

Louisville worry's me although I'm taking the Cards. Even John Thompson the third says this season sucks. It sounds like he's thrown in the towel. Louisville wins. No coin toss needed,

I'm confused Pat...
My Philosophy Picks had another great year this year, and are over 60% over the last 4 years.
But when I explained going against the public, you consistently called me a square, among other things, and said only an idiot who thinks games are fixed cares what the public bets.
Now you are making that argument?

I already know why the nuggets will win. People hammering the Celts are basically just looking at Denver last two losses against two bad teams. Since I had the luxury of watching virtually every Denver game, Boston backer's are going to be in for a surprise.
And for that Louisville game. These kind of upsets happens every single year in a big time conference, where the desperate team always pulls an upset that has you thinking whatafuk!

Profit is profit. Profit over 10 days is a good ten days. I dont care about if I make good bets or bad bets because obviously if I'm making a profit, they're good bets and for you to say a loss is a good bet, is moronic. I take those 1000 days you were talking about and break them up into 100 10 day intervals, therefore, I don't get cocky, I dont lose my mind (like OMG I'm down so much money). I'm a cool, calm, and collective gambler.

Exactly Pat, it doesnt mean anything if you don't win. So therefore, to a gambler, money shows how knowledgable you are.

patty youre assuming that the true odds are 50/50
no way georgetown has a 50% chance to win.
if you go by stats then on paper georgetown looks almost 50/50, however georgetown has been very inconsistent. they will play like the best team in the country against an inferior team, however anytime they face a top tier team they play like the worst team in the country. their backs are against the wall here but no way they have a 50% chance to win. 40% at best i would guess, so anything below +150 you are getting ripped off.
i agree with fading boston though

You really gotta stop thinking you know everything and are right 100% of the time. If someone thinks one team is going to win that isn't your team, then there an idiot right? If someone like me prefers money over losing then there stupid right? I like to win and youre calling me clueless.

Georgetown down only 10 at half, even though they played god awful. Wouldn't be surprised if they covered.
