    Never seen line movement like this...
    The favorite for the Sparks-Storm game has apparently changed four times!

    1. LVSC's original line was Seattle Pick (I've always taken that to mean the team that's named as a pick is what they consider to be a slight favorite. For example if they said LA pick it would mean they thought LA was a slight favorite. I could be wrong but that's always been my interpretation).

    2. Sparks -1

    3. Storm -1

    4. Sparks -1 (current line: Sparks -2)

    Even if the favorite's changed only three times it's something I've never seen before. Any comments?

          That's not the point. For the LVSC to change the favorite once is a big deal, it's unusual. For them to do it three to four times is unprecedented. And if you think it's insignificant, why are they sending this information to books? It's very significant of course.

              LVSC is worthless.

              Pinnacle originates WNBA.

                  This article is about college basketball but it shows the process that the LVSC goes through and their importance to the books (it's the same for almost every sport):

                  http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/columns/story?columnist=wojciechowski_gene&id=2795259&sportCat=ncb


                  Pinnacle doesn't put lines up before LVSC releases the lines.

                          Linking an ESPN article as a gambling source


                          Will you book me betting into LVSC odds before any books open?

                          And WNBA is a different market
