Bookie did NOT love the SF by 4 score

Look at the lines: anyone who shopped at all got a win. Timing and shopping are way more important than handicapping. I just heard some fool state: "the books must have loved the final score, right on the money". In this case, the money went FROM the books to the bettors. But, yes, all that money will end up with the books.

    The books are already crying via different outlets, claiming they got murdered today because of the 4 and that it kept all parlays and teasers going. They bitch all the time. Yet they make millions. comical.

    I would argue that handicapping is important as well.

    I don't understand how the books got it back late with Baltimore when all week, the line kept moving down from 10 to 7.5, with money going all to ravens side, granting there was enough money that went with patriots to move te line back to 8 before gametime. Overall, I think the books for once, took it on the chin in the nfl this weekend.

    Our locals had 70% of their action on Balt. plus Balt on ML. A disaster.
