Re: Help me understand these numbers...
[ QUOTE ]
It has always pretty much been a myth that the bookies want even action on each side. They want to make money. [/ QUOTE ] But they will make money with even action, and at zero risk. [ QUOTE ] If I was a bookie and thought the true line on the game was -6 (by "true line" i mean a line that the fav will cover half the time and the dog will cover the other half), but I knew I could still get plenty of fav action, maybe I would shoot for 7.5. All fav bettors are taking the worst of it. [/ QUOTE ] In this day and age, how long do you think you could get away with that and keep your action? |
