How come books do not make it -1.5 -110 and get more action? I would think this inflated juice discourages bettors if you like SD. I am talking about a first half line tonight in football game.
You will see this alot with 3 and 4 point favs especially at Pinnacle. I wondered the same a few years ago. They don't do it on all games but they are taking a stance wanting people to lay the hook. Go elseware and take +1.5 or so.
