    well, take the packers and the steelers. right after their divisional  games were over the line was at -3 (some at plus money) and I knew the  favorites were going to get pounded early and it would be at 3.5 or 4 in no time and look what happened.  I seen that coming in my limited handicapping experience.  I am wondering is their a site that has more experience and insight than lowly me.  I know covers has the line tracker subscription thing.  Is there something better out there?

    No... there's nothing that accurately predicts it enough to make it worthwhile. You have to do it yourself. This goes with all styles of capping, if you want something done right, do it yourself.

    DJ is correct, only chance I can think of is that you check regulary at Matchbook.com, there you will find lines that are made by other bettors, the side with the better odds is (if any) the side that will get more points later on...but as DJ said, dont take that for granted...I observed it but it wont work every time...hope that helps

    Call,

    I have 2 questions for you about matchbook

    1.  how exactly do you observe the line movement on matchbook. What do you click on, what are you looking for?

    2. Can Matchbook be used for a scalping, middling opportunities?  For example, Say Miami is favored over the Bills by 7 and you figure the line will move to miami -9 before kickoff.  Can you offer to buy a bet at Miami -8 for +110 when it is at -7 at first then before kickoff when it moves to -9, offer to buy a bet at Bills+8 for +110 so you will have both sides at 8 with plus money on both sides.  Will this work using matchbook? 

    I am just looking to find a book that will allow you to "sell" points in order to get plus money so if you know what way the line is going to move you can scalping and get guaranteed profit, albeit small profit.
