Thank you Mickster. It is amazing to me how little people on this board actually know about how the line is made and why. hard8...you go on thinking that "the man" is setting traps for you to fall in if that is what you want to believe but those hotels were build by sure things, not chance. Using your theory, all one would have to do is look at the board, figure out what line doesn't make sense and then make the non-obvious play. Good luck with that. Vegas does not need to gamble. Vegas does not WANT to gamble. Vegas wants YOU to gamble and for every person that thinks Tenn plus the points is a lock, there is someone else who thinks the same about Vandy. Vegas is very happy taking 5% of all wagers made with no downside. If there were even money on both sides and the line never moved, vegas would love it. If you want to really understand how the line is made...do some research. The opening line for about 90% of the vegas sportsbooks is made by Kenny White's company, Las Vegas Sports Consultants. Casinos pay his group big money to come out with a line that holds. Good luck anyway.
