    Amazing After All These Years Offshore Books Control The Lines

    Every SPORTSBOOK in VEGAS moves off Offshore not money bet in Las Vegas

    Hats off the Offshore Sportsbooks that still and always will control the sports betting markets

    Yes and it's brilliant on Vegas' part. They wait for offshore's to post the opening lines, wait for public reaction and then post there line.

    This happened with the SEC Championship game. Offshore's opened it at Alabama -13.5, Vegas laughed, waited then posted their lines at 17.5 and larger.

    There was never an Alabama ticket -13.5 or less in Vegas.

    Smart money makes money.

    Vegas' philosophy is to juice you to death.

    Offshore philosophy is volume = losers.

    This is why limiting sharp players who hit winners for the limit is such an integral part of their business model.
