not true at all if vegas knows something they will hold a line nomatter how many people bet it. ive even seen reverse line movement. if vegas thought that the pirates would win they would set it at like -150 and eat the 97 percent bets on the nats. they dont think that will happen so its at -200 and probably growing to protect themselves.
Do you happen to try out for "The Last Comic Standing?" Your statement straight amused me to say the least. I don't even know where to start.
First off, Vegas makes line to where they get around 50% equal action on both sides. That's how they make the line. They would NEVER EVER make the line to where they "thought" the other team would win by. For example if they thought the Lakers would win by 4 tonight in Boston, we'd never ever get that line. Vegas would never ever set themself up for a bloodbath. They never ever settle for that when they get just get FREE MONEY BY THE VIG.
Intersting you say "ive even seen reverse line movement" Do you even know what that means? They have reverse line movement beacause THERE IS TOO MUCH MONEY ON ONE SIDE BY THE SHARPS OR BIG BETTORS. They willl move and make the line so they get equal action on both betting sides. So your straight contradicting yourself here. It's ok though, everyone has to learn somewhere. I'll try and help you out
