Welcome to the new and wonderful sports betting market

Welcome to the new and wonderful sports betting market Idaho is kicking ass, and perfect ATS vs.a woeful Hawaii team. Idaho opens -11.5, close -7.4. UNLV (total P.O.S) opens +15 goes up to 16.5 AND THEN CLOSES 14.5. HUH? My favorite part of the game was our local Homer announcers being critical of the Youths talking about how they were "losing their cool" and "making dumb mistakes" and "The Rebels were taking control" during the 3rd quarter. LOL. Sunday. Oak 36-64 ATS last 100 open +13, it goes up to 14, AND THEN BACK DOWN ON SATUDAY TO 13.5. Huh?? Seriously, who would play UNLV +15 or Oak +13.5?? Mind boggling to me. You would think a freight train of cash would come AGAINST these dead teams, but the opposite happens week after week.

Maybe here's the freight train of cash that came in on the Raiders? https://www.covers.com/postingforum/post01/showmessage.aspx?spt=41&sub=100555156 [I]"HAD TO GO THRU 2 DIFFERENT BOOKS THE MIRAGE AND THE LAS VEGAS HILTON TO GET THIS BET IN. THIS IS A SYSTEM PLAY THAT I HAVE WATCHED FOR 10 YEARS OVER THAT TIME IT IS AN ASTOUNDING 38-0. TAKING THE OAKLAND RAIDERS +14.5 TO WIN $100,000."[/I] LMFAO!!!

Honestly, my knee jerk reaction is often to take these rotten teams. It has been a winning method long term. However, I have to agree, the market is constantly evolving. Not sure what exactly it is, but in the past, we would have never seen what has happened this week with the OAK line. Seven years ago, the openning line of 14 would have eventually snuck past +16, with a quick rogue +17 showing. This simply does not happen any more... big NFL dogs have been coming down or staying pat for the most part. In some ways, it has confused me, as it is so painful taking such a large FAV. Generally, I have been sitting on the sideline for these large NFL spreads -- maybe I am missing a big opportunity... not sure.

I wasted ten minutes of my life reading this person's thread linked here. S/he does not give the system s/he touts as 38-0. Another disappointment.

people following John Morrison are blindly betting Oakland as well as StLouis, Beefalo and Tennessee

Remember LY when money kept showing on Wyoming week after week, even though they never covered? Then at the end of the year (Wyoming catching a bundle @ Tennessee), the crack addicts finally gave up and went the other way. You could see it coming...Pokes won outright!

Thanks for the reminder.

[QUOTE=jefff;6176]people following John Morrison are blindly betting Oakland as well as StLouis, Beefalo and Tennessee[/QUOTE] 3-1 for these folks. Tenny will be a big bet in 2 weeks.

Sort of helps reinforce "the opposite happens week after week." Regardless, next week i will still be opposite the Raiders, with probably better line value because of the lightening...better not strike twice........
