    How do moneylines change?

    Does it just have to do with more people betting one side which will lower the payout?

    Can someone help me out with a numerical example?

    Or does it have more to do with the fact that bookies are just trying to get to 50% on each side.

    Pretty sure the bookie only cares for even action on the spread.

    I know, but -7 Heat tonight seems like Vegas set up a trap thinking that the heat will crush it, but the public will eat up the Spurs at +7 and +270 like they did.

    Sometimes the M/L moves & the point spread doesn't, it's all about equal action on both sides of the bet.
