Line movement question.

I'm new to this so bear w/ me!

At what point does a line movement raise a red flag?

For instance:

IU vs Northwestern: Opened at IU +7.5, now +9
ND vs PITT: Opened at pk, now ND +1.5

Do any of these line movements make y'all warm and fuzzy either way or the other?

Thanks in advance for the insight, I'm trying to figure this sh!t out!!!

pitt is a great play tonight in my opinion........the line's moving the way pitt backers should want.......i'm on their money line.....i try not to get too involved w/the line movement cause it can make you second guess your plays sometimes......there's a wonderful site that's relatively inexpensive where u can get line moves/bets/money etc in real-time...i've been a member for a few years now........if you google betting percentages, you'll find what i'm talking about........hope that helps

SI is not in real time, not even close, if you need true real time moves it costs a hell of lot more

for everything including %s its not bad, but again you get what you pay for usually

SI may not be real time w/every book, but for 5d, oly, and bm (which are the 3 onlines that i use) they've been more than wonderful.......all of their "alerts" for those 3 books are ALWAYS before the lines change there if i can catch the alerts as soon as they're given....which is why i LOVE that they text their alerts now

what!?! so you get 5dimes alerts of changes on SI before 5dimes actually changes it?

makes zero sense, I want to see grande moves before 5 Dimes has a chance to catch up

the only true real time, because they are getting a direct feed is don best, period

SI is a 2 minute delay, and as much as a 5 minute delay with books that matter

5dimes is watching what grande does, its all a cat mouse game

you want grande or cris moves as they are happening, don best

anyways I think I know what you meant...you get 5dimes moves in time to place a wager before a significant move continues??

also im not pretending that all linesmakers arent don best subcribers too

so they all see the real - real time moves as any don best subscriber might

but for some getting true real time grande and cris is a must, and thats the only option

don best has some granfathered in clause, through years of contacts, they exclusivly get grande and cris/Bookmaker moves

strictly speaking on those two books, cris and grande, don best gets real time ($500 a month)

SO gets 2 min delays ($300 a month)

and then you get your SI around 5 minute delays (79$ or 179$ a month)
