Help me understand this weird line
At one of my books, the spread for both the Indy game and the Dallas game is
-7 (-110) The moneyline for the Indy/Jax game is -320/+260 The moneyline for the Dallas/GB game is -275/+225 Both home teams are favorites. I don't understand why the MLs are so different. According to sbrforums, +7 (-110) is roughly equivalent to -311/+260 moneylines. Therefore, it looks like there is a ton of value in hammering the Dallas ML. What forces are at play here? The books do seem to be begging for GB money ATS. |

Re: Help me understand this weird line
The current MLs are
IND -275/+255 Pinny -268/+256 MB DAL -285/+265 Pinny -278/+266 MB which are very close. It looks like you just have a book hanging off-center lines that are protected by the huge juice. The MLs may be lower than average MLs for those spreads because of the high totals (Dal 51, IND 45, average 40-41). |

Re: Help me understand this weird line
Put 2.9u down on Dallas -275 (Don't ask. I wanted to risk 2.66u to win 1u and ended up looking at the payout instead.)
Put 0.5u down on Jax +260. going solely on the fact that the lines are well of pinny/MB, although I think I forget to take juice into account. Oh well, still learning. |

Re: Help me understand this weird line
Don't forget that when the public is on an underdog it prefers taking the ML over the points.
