Bump and a little from vegas insiders
quote:
"We started seeing everyone go to -5.5 yesterday, but we weren't ready to go," said Golden Nugget sports book director Tony Miller. "I told our crew to hold the number and let me know when someone wanted a large wager, and sure enough a guy came in a few minutes later and asked us how much we'd take with Denver at +6. We took a larger than normal wager and moved, but we're still way long on Carolina."
The guy that made the wager was a known wise guy in desperation mode knowing that he almost snoozed too long waiting for Denver +6.5, and knew the well was running dry in town at +6.
William Hill books made their move to -5.5 about an hour earlier than the Golden Nugget.
"We're still buried on the Panthers, but when we were at +6, we did get a little higher on the Broncos," said William Hill's top bookmaker Nick Bogdanovich. "Still, we're at about an 8-to-1 ratio with cash wagered on the Panthers."
On Monday, William Hill books had 91 percent of its spread wagers on the Panthers.
