LOL well yeah, good point. My personal "limits" wouldn't have any relevance to sharps.They will allow you to bet 50K on openers?

Walk into Southpoint with $5k on Sunday morning and ask to get down on a game for the following Saturday.
People who do this for a living are betting a lot more than 5K.
You'd be surprised. And also, regardless, this is a discussion on a message board. I doubt any of us are doing this for a living. If you are, my hats off to you. I love the grind, but I couldn't do this for my ability to eat.
How many guys betting on a Sunday at Southpoint do it for a legitimate living? As in, their only source of income is sports handicapping? It's an incredibly small percentage.
That line moved heavy and late in LSU’s favor.I want to know how all you degenerate gamblers did on the opening game last season vs LSU when we all knew we were poised to have a great season? I’m just stirring the ****. Not a gambler for many reasons. But good luck!
I had to get in a parlay yesterday. I took us +7 fiu +2.5 s.car -7 cincy -3 wake forest - 3.5Finally time to step up to the window and place your bets, what's everyone looking at from a gambling angle? What season win total over/unders you guys looking at? Any great prop bets on the game?
I'm seeing...
Miami Season Reg. Season Wins o/u 8.5 -135
Game line seems to be holding at Miami +7 -110
Game Total o/u between 47.5 -48.5
Miami Money line +230
1st Half Line Miami +3.5 -105
1st Half Total U23.5 -105
Miami Team Total O/U 20.5O -110
Florida Team Total O/U 27.5 -120
Only reason to walk into south point period is if it's late night & all the other books are closed.That's not correct. Most +ev bettors place a large number of their bets immediately after the lines come out, obviously if they disagree with what the line should be. That's why you'll hear the guys who are good at this say "I don't bet teams, I bet numbers". During the season, the limits are not low when the lines are first announced. If you're talking about lines for Week 1 that come out in the summer, yes. You're 100% correct, those are low limit lines. But for example after the Saturday of Week 4, then week 5's lines will post early Sunday. There's usually no different limits at that time than there are later in the week. And if they are, you're talking about 0.1% of bettors who those will effect.
Walk into Southpoint with $5k on Sunday morning and ask to get down on a game for the following Saturday. They'll take it. Now, if you want $100k, that may be a different story.
LOL great minds think alike. I put in a week 1 long shot parlay months ago when lines first came out. Miami+7.5/GT+33.5/Utah-230/FSU-180. Pays just over 6x.I had to get in a parlay yesterday. I took us +7 fiu +2.5 s.car -7 cincy -3 wake forest - 3.5
Than I got us even money & us over on season wins. Yall welcome

Interesting. No judgment on those who bet (like I said I was just stirring the ****). It’s not my thing. But I hope those here who bet do well. Will see what the line does as we get closer.That line moved heavy and late in LSU’s favor.
South Point is solid but it’s so far that I prefer Westgate so that if I need to run elsewhere for a better line I can.LOL stop. It's a good book. But yes, not nearly as fancy as what you'll find on the strip.
I'm on Miami+8 (I bought it up to 8 when it was at 7.5 months ago) which I absolutely love! I'm also in for smaller on the Miami moneyline at +250. I think there's a 50% chance, easy, that we win the game outright. Canes getting 8pts is my favorite play of the entire week 1 schedule. My book right now has Miami+7.5 again (at -115) and the ML is back up to +245. I like either of those plays.
I'm also on Miami over 8.5 total wins and turds under 9. So, needless to say, the opener will be big for both of those as well.
I like the under, but I liked it much more at 52.5 where it opened. If I had to bet the over or the under at 47 (which is where my book is right now) I'd take the under still. But I'm staying away from the point total.
Every time I've been in there I've been expecting to see joe pesci muscling some lil old lady for her bingo moneyLOL stop. It's a good book. But yes, not nearly as fancy as what you'll find on the strip.
I have a place in southern highlands so it's not too far at all. But for me I've either gotta be in a really ****** mood that rhino sapphires or crazy horse 3 cant fix or just not be able to sleep for me to step in there.South Point is solid but it’s so far that I prefer Westgate so that if I need to run elsewhere for a better line I can.
