    The books will get killed if the Pats win by 3

    Early line brought in a bunch of money on the Giants at +3 1/2. Now, the books are holding out -3 with plus money for the Pats which means a bunch of people will be buying down to -2 1/2 for the Pats.

    I'm assuming the books are doing this to get even action after a lot of money came in on the Giants early.

    Books will get killed if the Giants win or cover.

    They desperately need a New England win by 4+. And by desperately, I mean maybe the most desperate ever for a Super Bowl.

    I think the books are just juicing the shit out of Giants' backers now and the Pats win and cover.

    The +3.5 was not available for very long and and was at much lower limits.

    Pats by 3 would be a bad result for the books but not as bad as you might think.

    You might have a point. Maybe the sharps hit it soon but I'm guessing there wasn't a lot of money on the Giants at +3 1/2. There was +3 with low juice available for a day after that but in total it was only a couple of days.

    If that's the case then the books think the Giants will cover and they are wanting the big money that's being bet today to be on the Patriots.

    I'm going with the Giants.

    Opening at +3.5 was a bad move by the books. All the sharps pounded that like Dad pounds the pretty girls.

    From what I heard when books move down to 2.5 -110 they take pats coin. Same with Pats -135 ML.
