Convinced a few people to give me Denver +7. This line is already higher than it should be

The "sharps" is just another way to get people betting on one side or the other. The actual "sharps" picks are not published anywhere on the internet.

I got Carolina -4.5 (er if such a thing were legal) and I think panthers win by at least 2 tds.

Also I took the under on the anthem for the first time ever. Got it at even money at under 136.5 seconds

I have no opinion on the outcome. I'd like Denver to win it. I've always liked 18 and it'd be cool to see him go out on top. Plus Bennie Fowler. If I were a betting man I'd probably bet on Denver if I could get 6, maybe buy it to 7. Mostly because that's who I would like to cheer for.

Regarding the Anthem, I've never bet on it but I have been aware of the posted time and timed it at home just for funsies. Both times I did it, it was literally within a second and I had no idea if over or under would have won because I wasn't sure if I started it at the right time.

Foot race between you and #18... who wins (serious question)?

Need more info.

Right now, with current condition of my knee? 18.

Assuming one/both of my knees don't dislocate within the first ten yards? (which they would) - probably me

I may or may not have bet and won the over on the anthem 5 years in a row. I also always bet yes on safety scored (hit 3 times) and yes on overtime (still waiting)

I don't know shit about any of this but I was talking to my daughter earlier tonight and she's fairly versed on the subject. She told me that based on her understanding, some sharp bets were placed early on Carolina when the line was released at Carolina -4.5/5 and that a lot of sharps would probably take Denver at +6 if it gets there.

"Who is Billy Walters playing?

Sharp money means very little in the overall Super Bowl wagering pool because there’s just so many small wagers that can do more damage collectively, but you always like to know who the most publicized and successful sharp bettor in Las Vegas is taking. Word on the street is that it was Walters and his many associates that were scrambling at all the books to get as much +6 Broncos action as they could around town. If it were a regular season game the line would be -4.5 already with him on board, but the public’s money dictates the pace for this game. A few books were relieved that money came when it did because going to -6.5 was likely to happen within the next day or two."

They limit those prop bets to avoid shit like that. In b&m books I think it's usually a $500 max. That's what my daughter told me anyway.
