i knows it small sample size but look at the split vote above. 7 with the over, 5 with the under. Right about where the line wants to be.
Assuming $100 each thats $1,200 collected. If the over plays out thats 7*120=840 payed out for a profit of $380. If the under pays out thats 5*140=700 for a profit of $500. Book still comes out ahead and more people are picking the over so at some point the line will shift to 6, with 6 wins being a push, all money gets returned.
