According to one Vegas site, 85% of ML bets and 63% of ATS bets were on the Giants, which means Vegas got CRUSHED yesterday. I just can't believe this. I thought Vegas never loses??? For the record, I did not bet on the Pats. I had a very very small bet on the Giants +12 and was kicking myself for not betting the house on this one. I got scared because way too many bettors were on the Giants. I thought I would end up seeing bad calls go against the Giants and that the Pats would surely win this game but the refs did a pretty good job calling this game. So I guess that means Vegas doesn't fix big games. Now I'm more confused than ever. I guess that theory of 'going against the public' can be tossed out the window? :shrug: Just when I thought I had Vegas figured out I find myself back to square one.:shrug:
I just don't get it.

Found this on vegasinsider Also, not one person I know who bet on this game were on the Pats.
It's dead on according to certain book managers. (Via the LV Review Journal) One manager said the booked the M/L at 30:1 Giants!
Maybe they don't clean up on EVERY game, but I thought for sure they clean up on all BIG games. The Superbowl is by far the biggest game of the year. I figure all the money they made during the regular season couldn't make up for the beating they took yesterday. And according to vegasinsider, 57% were on the over, so they didn't make that much on the o/u. I am surprised they didn't pay off a few refs or something to at least ensure a NE straight up win. Vegas must be hating the Giants right now....:mj07:
