What side is the money on tonight? Broncos // Texans

[NYG4lifeNYK]

Line went from 9 last night to 7.5

I loved the Broncos as soon as the line came out last week. The revenge factor and they are home.

Still to early its back at the opening line.

Yea I see that. Closer to game time we should have a better feel. I'd bet the line continues to move all the way up till kickoff.

hey NYG, just curious...why are you concerned what side the money is on?

Is that a trick question? haha

No, I just like to get every possible angle before placing a wager. Sometimes you can get a feel which side to bet based on the money and other times like many games yesterday that doesn't quite apply.

Huego - sometimes which side the money is on can be very valuable information. For example, if Team A is playing Team B and 70% of betting tickets are on Team A, but 60% of the actual money wagered is on Team B, this can indicate that the "Sharps" are on Team B. While there are fewer of them, they typically wager more money - therefore just looking at the % of ticket on each team can sometimes be misleading...or at least not tell you the full story.

Huh?

Thing is sharps are not always right , but they do tend to get the most value with the line , vs most bettors.

no trick question.


I have Denver remaining in a few teasers. I wonder how much money is riding on Denver tonight including all the open teasers, ML/ATS parlays, etc. If Houston wins straight up then the books will make a KILLING.

Following the line on Monday night you have lost all year, if the line closes above the opening line -7.5 (true -110 line take dog if below take Fav) .

If you know the implications of where the cash is...then why did you ask?

If you had to choose, would you rather be where the cash is or where the cash isn't?

I don't allow "where the money is" to effect what/how I bet. From previous experience, I learned that it just clouds my judgement.

Not trying to be a smartass like some on here, and trying to fully understand what you are saying, didn't the line fade you are suggesting tell us to take AZ then? Last night it moved from opening at AZ -1.5 up to 2 then back to 1.5 right before kick?

Yesterday, line was-1 all day then went to -2.5 at kickoff. Covers line changed to -1.5 10 minutes into game for some reason at kick off it was at -2.5.
