    Can someone read the Patriots Seahawks tea leaves for me?

    5Dimes -9 +115

    Everyone else is -7.5 +100

    Except the stupid book Bovada -8 -105

    So odd to see 5D & Bovada leaning same way

    Sportsbooks are tired of getting hammered with public action on New England. They would rather offer a bad line by the numbers and have closer to 50/50 buy rate.

    To put it another way the pats always deliver and the books don't want to short them for the time being.

    I find this so interesting.

    Having read your take, Seahawks +9 -135 says to me they would prefer NO ACTION on this game.

    -7.5 +100 Pats looks legit at home. Sometimes it is what it is regardless of the public. Sometimes they are right.

    There is so much bad math out there. I think -7.5 is still flawed. Backup QB's and formerly hurt Russell Wilson to name two items.

    Bills vs Patriots Round II (with Brady after losing to Bills with some schmuck 3rd string QB)-5.5 was a classic example of flawed data. That was the game of year for me.

    Sometimes the advanced numbers driven lines are lacking the right data. Precise but wrong. Pats first half numbers are an anomaly

    Unfortunately you have a confluence of good lines and public pink hat love

    It's never a good feeling to fade a player/team as good as this one, but I think Wake is being way undervalued here.

    Wake Forest +35

    Don't be so sure. Georgia's offense has been useless this year against any decent defense - which Auburn has. Auburn will also score pretty easily against Georgia. The line is still 10 at most books. I'd leave this one alone.

    what the hell, its bad enough what Bovada does to the "public" with their lines, but then to top it off they offer no bets at all for long periods for many of the big games and are late on every game. Want a ML bet, good luck. Their live bet software is able to handle it, but pre game something is up. Incompetent, extremely risk adverse or something else? e.g. want to bet on Georgia game? no bets open, earlier today it was open, not anymore.

    a little internet discussion: http://pregame.com/pregame-forums/f/...ker_at_bovada/

    https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/commen...ker_at_bovada/

    and PFA has a thread on some of this:http://pokerfraudalert.com/forum/sho...erent-Accounts

    I know you harbor guilt about failing to get me into Michigan St @ -17.

    So are you telling me to take Iowa +21.5? I ain't gonna do your job for you.

    I don't have much today. No NBA and small bet NHL Rangers on the road against Calgary.

    Wake Forest, the team of the +35 line, is up 9-0 in the 2nd.

    Is it really possible they might win




    If so, would be an amazing call by Daly, even if he was only picking the spread.

    This has nothing to do with me, Charham. I haven't seen either team. Lew ain't a homer so I'll run with him.

    I hope he lives to see tomorrow. I hope I can pay for Olive Garden with this.
