5team- Anytime a book has a different number on a game, it's an edge to the bettor. The more variation in the line, the better opportunity for shopping and playing into different numbers. If a guy really wants to play under the 8 and doesn't mind laying -145, then it's good for whoever wants to pay the extra juice for the 1/2 run. Different numbers are a good thing.
i've seen plenty of 125's 130's etc. never as high as 145 this is a new record and i've gambled everyday for years and years (sadly). BUT of course i'm dealing with BODOG who is allways a bit higher on favorites in every major game, and in most other regular games. I bet it at 8 -125 at betall sports about an hour ago.
AT -150 A STRANGE OVER UNDER LINE
at 7.5 they would be guanteed to take money also a 8 run game and the bets are a wash.
