Vig on 49ers win total adjusted to reflect heavy betting on OVER

Related Topics: Gambling, Vigorish

Over the weekend, I posted something on how a gambling analyst suggested staying away from the 49ers win total and Super Bowl wager. The latter makes sense, but the former has been busy over the past couple months.

The 49ers win total was set at 4.5, and early wagering was hitting the OVER. The South Point’s chief oddsmaker was surprised by that because of the roster issues. Kyle Shanahan brings plenty of optimism, but the oddsmaker was surprised by the action given the talent level.

While oddsmakers might be a bit surprised, that is not stopping them from adjusting to reflect the bettor optimism.
