two examples: which is one is preferable? (doesnt have to be the superbowl)
ex A
you set the line at Pit -7 -110 and Arz +7 -110 and you book $10 000 worth of wagers... you have even action - $5000 bet each way.
ex B
you set the line at Pit -6.5 -110 and Arz +6.5 -110 and you book $30 000 worth of wagers... you dont have even action: $25 000 on Pit and $5000 on Arizona
please try to forget the likelihood of the line having such a strong effect and pick the more attractive situation for a book... play with the numbers if it helps.
I think B is preferable right?
