I just moved a line in Vegas a full point

Illini · Nov 15, 2005

I walked up and bet $275 on Northwestern -14. Immediately afterwards, they manually changed the line on the markerboard to -15. Feels kinda cool, now I know what Fezzik must feel like. This is a very good bet. It's not guaranteed to cover, but the line is guaranteed to move that way. I expect it to go to 18, but we shall see. But what gives? They move lines a full point on a $250 bet? Or was it because I bet against Illinois with an Illinois shirt on?

No it's because you are recognized as wiseguy action personified. Wouldn't matter what amount you bet. :103631605

Wildcats will feast.

14 is awfully cheap in this spot. Was it because I'm betting an obscure game on Tuesday morning, so they figure I must know something? I think every square is going to be on NW, and they will be right.

I swear if you spend 2 weeks in that place even a non smoker will get lung cancer..How did you windup over there? Did you rent a place in the area?

Didn't you notice a guy with a cigarette dangling from his mouth with his face all bandaged up. Had a hat on with weird looking glasses and had just wandered in from the desert. He got down 25 large about the same time you did.

If anything, they should have moved # to 13 after a guy wearing an Illinois shirt played NW as a dd road fav.

I backed Illinois +14.5.

Leaving for LV early next week, planning to have a few cold ones with Pops and hopefully find Kermit hanging around Hilton counting his millions.

Do you like Illinois? DD road fav sounds like square city, but I think it's the right side.

Dawoof- when you coming into town? E-mail me.

Suggest wearing a UNLV t-shirt next time you place a wager.

Thinking about going to bet $200 the other way, just to see what kind of looks they give me, and what they do with the number.

You play the nickel video slots at all?

I find them really entertaining. I have no idea why.

Sorry totally off topic.

One time I made a wager at the RIVIERA on hockey and they moved the line 25 cents on a 20 cent line!!

Could have wagered the other side immediately after placing my wager and had a scalp.

I can't wait to see the ticket writer's face when Bigbet tells them he wants to bet 8 dimes.

I wouldn't play slots for 5 minutes if you paid me 5 dollars. If that give you any indication of my feelings towards them.

bigbet1234 · Nov 15, 2005

Sure you would, if you knew which ones to pick. We can scount them when I get into town.
