I've obviously thought about the idea as well, but not from this angle. My biggest problem at this point is defining the best sides early on. On my blog, I play most, but not all of my Tuesday strong leans. If I was betting 100% of them, I would argue that I should be placing them on Tuesday. I'll be interested to see how my thought experiment plays out at the end of the year. Those are both good points.

My thoughts exactly. These lines only have so much value to begin with. If a number moves 2 full points then how much value could possibly be left? “It’s an indication of big money coming in on your side, which is obviously great, but you are losing value.”

And yes it runs counter to something that has been a huge part of my style for years. In about a month or so contrarian angles is going to be revived, and I am going to start thinking out loud about this issue. The former.

Because the former would cause me to rethink a lot of what I do.

I am starting to question the wisdom of betting into lines that have already moved significantly in the direction that I am looking to side with.

Do you mean betting into a -11 line that was once -8 or betting into a -11 line that was once -14? Because the former would cause me to rethink a lot of what I do.
