I know some people swear by it, others not so much. I didn't really pay that much attention to it except when I am listening to podcasts about gambling and hear that the wiseguys are on a certain side. I'll jump on it too and for the most time it always works out and I will win with them. I know it's hard to determine if the line is moving from the betting public, or if it is moving from wiseguy money. I found a website that compiles information on matchups and on that page they list the "Team Line Action" stating: "Oddsmakers move a line in part because of one-sided public betting action on a side or total. They also move the line in reaction to wise guys selections. Either way, this section attempts to uncover whether the wise guys and public have a read on a given team. It summarizes both line and total movements. As a general rule, follow the line or total movement when percentages exceed 57% and go against it when they are below 43%". For tonight's NBA matchup IND @ WAS it says that the OVER is favored by evidence of the line movement. However it says that the public is only correct 51% of the time when moving the total line. According to the statement above, since this is below the 57% that they recommended, it isn't worth betting the over solely because the line shifted in that direction. Does anyone have any information tracking this system? How effective is it?
