Reverse line movement


Recommended Posts

We are 70% bet by the public yet the line has moved down, opened at -3 at some spots, we are now just a -1.5 favorite. 

If you have studied lines, gambling, or interpreted lines for any number of years you know what this means

The game is fixed?

Reverse line movement is when large bettors are betting opposite of the public. 

In this case, big money is coming in on the Seahawks which is moving the line opposite of where the bulk of the public play is. 

 

And they will continue to push money on to the seahawks until the last minute.  Then they will dump a ton of money on us to win. Sucker the public in, then drop the hammer.

So I don't bet on lines, what does this historically mean. Keep it as simple as possible while fully explaining.

I have nothing to give but Pie. Quote me and answer for your pie. If multiple people reply, pie the most complete answer.

Thanks ahead of time.

Sharps are the dudes who bet games for a living. If they're pounding Seattle they're basically predicting a Seattle victory. This is bad because you don't bet money for a living and survive if you're wrong often. It's basically experts picking Seattle but putting their money where their mouth is.

At the horse races large dollar last minute wagering that changes the odds is called "tilting the board" ............the assumption is the smart money of owners, trainers and those in the know from the barn area don't like to place big bets on long shorts with a chance to win too earlier so that the betting public doesn't jump on the band wagon and push the odds down too low long before they close the betting windows..........

But I've seen as much of that late money go up in smoke as not............so whose to know.

In the case of a football game like this it probably has nothing to do with big money having any inside scoop on the game but more likely its just some who want to bet a given team on the point spread without trying to effect that spread too early in the wagering cycle.....it is not an indicate of smart/inside money nor of either team being tipped as a winner.......its a matter of big money trying to sneak late while minimizing as much as possible their manipulating perception to the general betting public of the spread by the size of their bet.

Do you know the difference between investing and gambling?

Investing is making a speculation when the odds are for you......................

Gambling is making a speculation when the odds are against you..........

Well, I personally think that they're all gonna lose their asses! I'm sure though that they'll double down on Pittsburgh getting stomped and make their money back.

Carolina is winning this game. That's the bottom line

It's still gambling, it's just a prediction that means a bit more than the ones by the Conor Orrs of the world.

    • The same folks crying about the OL right now were crying about it in 2023 too. We have tied up over 100 million dollars in two interior olinemen alone and we have Taylor Moton inked to a recent extension. We've invested multiple first and second round picks in the offense. We hired an offensive minded head coach. This is an offensive team. The offense needs to produce or people need to be replaced.
    • This is the same place that has ridiculed and blasted Caleb Williams at every opportunity he has his team sitting at 10-4 in the same NFC that the Panthers are competing in. And their division in the NFC North is as or more competitive as our division. Yet from the same people who have very high standards for Williams we get every excuse imaginable for the smallest starting QB in the league even when he and his team continue to disappoint when the pressure is on. You lot aren't any less inconsistent than anyone else.
    • The Panthers are 9th in cap spent on offense this year.  However next season is already a different story  The Panthers as it stands right now will be 18th in cap spent on offense and 8th in cap spent on defense  The Panthers are currently set to spend more on defense next year than they are on offense this season Guys like Jaycee and Moehrig cap numbers take a big jump. Wharton has a massive cap hit   Jaycee Moehrig and Wharton in 2025 The same 3 in 2026 So this same defense as it stands right now will cost more in 2026 than this offense does right now… Got anything else you want to try?
