Line movement is bad for Steelers

Now at -110 +3.5 really would have liked to see that line trend toward +3 and +2.5. I’m on Steelers since this morning…

I’m in agreement with you. I’m staying away but Vikings look like the play 

Looks like the play but why not…. Small

Gone against line movement and won half the time.. 

Line movement is because Cook is playing

Right now on Draft kings Pitt -120 Vikings even money 

Cook was announced as playing at 10am. The line has been trending towards 4 all day. Don’t be surprised if it hits 4 before kick which is a death sentence to Pittsburg backers. Just my opinion after 25 years of this.

@Pro_Fball_Picks

 Yup Vikings 

Line movement is wrong all the time.

In this case, I hope it's right.

Not wrong all the time.

Like the line movement is indicative of who is going to win....people still believe there are people out there that have some sort gift to pick games.....their pick, my pick, and anyone else's pick ( spread betting ) has the same chance of winning.

No it isn’t. The line rising to Vikings -4 would not be a death sentence for Pittsburgh backers, lol.

Not today, have you ever been in US stadium?

Is nuts thats one factor Vikings line this high, I believe the line should be 5..Good luck!

Line movement is the most important indicator of professional sports betters. It’s more important than who’s injured, who’s playing, which coach has covid, who they lost to last week, etc. For some reason people that don’t know how to read it or don’t want to put time into it just say it doesn’t matter and any bet can win/lose. 

I said yup Vikings.  It

was a bad line movement on a prime time game just accept it and move on

@noclue

 Sorry not to mean cocky means that anything can happen and cut your losses and move on

That's not what I meant

I guess you missed this part

IN THIS CASE I HOPE IT'S RIGHT

GOOD LUCK ON YOUR 22.5 DOUBLE OR NOTHING 

Anything can happen.  Betting and pro trading.  Risk mgmt I risked too much today although big win

Exactly. In this case it looks to be right but it's wrong all the time. 

In Week 13 there were only 3 games that moved a full 1.5 points from the opening numbers. All 3 of them lost both ATS and SU.

The Bengals opened at 1.5 and went off at 3. They proceeded to get killed.

The Ravens opened at 3 and went off at 4.5. That's a massive move across those numbers. They lost SU.

The Niners opened at 2 and went off at 3.5. They lost the game badly.

Source is bookies.com and these were the only full 1.5 point line moves.

0-3 ATS

0-3 ML

 Anything can happen and all we can manage risk until then we are all gambling…

@Danny9999

 You are making a couple of mistakes with sweeping generalizations. You are mentioning opening line vs closing line which has nothing to do with what I am talking about. If you learn to diagnose line movement in situational forms such as tonight’s game (Steelers off a big win against a super over valued ravens team in the eyes of the public, Vikings off a lose to the lions which literally crushed the public last week due to teasers, Steelers with the better overall record, -3 juiced to $125 all day to scare off public betters who won’t lay that, the line moving to -3.5 mid day and trending towards -4 to scare off more public, etc.). These situations aren’t available every week never mind every game - another that comes to mind recently was the 49ers vs Rams a few weeks back and the Patriots going to +2.5 the other night against the Bills.

The second mistake you are making is you are saying “line movement loses all the time”. Well, of course it does? If it didn’t then this would be the easiest investment known to man and we would all be filthy rich. The key is to learn to diagnose line movement that matters vs what doesn’t. This is also another reason recreational betters lose 99% of the time - They see a post like this, go into Sunday, bet against the line movement, and go 1-3 on the day and give up. 

Anyways GL

@Pro_Fball_Picks

 So moves off the 3 and 7 more times than not are significant ? Thx. Certainly appears so.
