You realize spreads are based on what 50% of the people bet on what will happen, right?

You realize that this is a myth, right? Lines are designed to tease the uninformed. Rarely, if ever, does a book maker balance his book. Most times you will see 70-80% of the public money on one side of a bet or the other. Vegas encourages that. The only time they move the line is when they have made a mistake.

You dumb.

Have two questions for you.

1. Do you know who owns the casinos in vegas and the people they employ to operate the casinos and are responsible for how the sportsbooks operate and set lines?

2. Do you know how the process of setting a line and who does it?

Pretty sure you don't from your misinformed post.
