Wouldn't it make more sense to only bet the 1st half Wash and when the 2nd half line comes out (which would be at a discounted line compared to the full game line) then you can bet Atl 2nd half?  

I can only see it advantageous for a double bet like that before the game when you are wrong about the first half and end up winning full game.  Which usually means you wouldn't have been able to get the full game spread or better at halftime.

My first sentence would only make sense assuming your first half bet does win.  
  I've never seen a  2nd half line where the favorite didn't cover and they would give a total of more than the full game spread.

Phil, with regards to reverse line movement, you mentioned within the past few weeks the potential of misinformation of what % money is on what team(and that you have info that is not available to all).  I look at a couple sites for public % and they're generally in the same ballpark, but is that worth believing?   

Is there anything besides public % that makes NE seem like a bad bet any week?  On one hand they have gained a strong rep, but won 2of 3 by 7 only, on the other hand betting against Brady/grok is tough

No.  If Washington is winning or even covers the 1H spread it is likely the pre game line will be much lower, the books will likely set a line that would require atl to not only come back but, go on to cover some type of winning margin.  So phixers theory is spot on, especially when getting 5:1 on your money on an outcome that has proven to work 50% of the time.  In this case we anticipate even slightly better odds of it happening. 

correct me if I'm wrong phix

Hey Phix, i'm on the same boat as you tonight. I was siding with hou but from my sources some sharp money came in on Ind last and you know we must follow the sharp money.  I was wondering what your insights were ?

in case my main bet wins and the skins will win the first half - the line for the second most probably will include points in favor of the falcons. so, after investing 200$ i actually bought myself the right to bet the skins for a second half comfortably 660$ so in any case  come out the winner. if the skins win i 600 minus 200 invested in the double result = +400 and if the falcons win - i get 1000-660=340. and incase bthye skins win by a td the first half then the line will be the falcons -3.5 for the second and i might even get all the chicks in. but of course it is all conditional to what i will see a the first half

That's not correct but I understand what you are saying. 

The 2nd half line will usually always be a discounted line compared to the full game spread if the favorite is down.

For example if Atlanta was down 3 at the half this week the half time spread would be lets say -4 to -6 Atlanta.   That means Atlanta only needs to win by a fg rather than a TD if you took the full game bet.  Many bettors would rebet their full game bet so now they have full game -7 and full game -3 from the halftime bet.

That was an odd penalty overturn they didn't announce to the stadium.
