Thats why I tend to bet the money lines and look for overlays.

Understanding how the lines work go a long ways, people think because a team is favored it means that Vegas thinks that team is going to win, which in a lot of ways it does but the goal of every line would be to have 50/50 money distribution between the teams, sharp players may say the game is a pick em yet one team could be -2 on the board because money has been come coming in on one team. This is obvious stuff I know but may not be to everyone.
