Green Bay PackersatNew England Patriots
- The Packers won (they closed at +155 on the moneyline).
- Against the closing spread, the Packers covered +3.
- 72 total points against a closing total of 44.5: the over hit.
Sharp signals point to the Patriots: Circa money. None of your books beats Pinnacle's fair price once the juice is counted.
The read before the start
- Pinnacle had Patriots -2.5 on Sun, Nov 1. It's now -3, half a point toward the Patriots, onto the key number 3.
- At DraftKings (mostly everyday bettors), 71% of spread bets and 78% of the money are on the Patriots.
- At Circa, where pros bet, only 52% of bets but 81% of the money is on the Patriots: fewer, bigger bets.
- The sharpest moment: around Sat, Nov 7, 6:28 PM ET, Pinnacle and 2 other books moved the total the same way within an hour. That's a steam move, usually big money hitting at once.
- None of your books beats Pinnacle's fair price once the juice is counted, so there's nothing to grab right now. (A better number with heavy juice can still be a worse bet.)
- On the exchanges (reference only, about $3.9M traded on Kalshi), the Packers are +145 to +164 on the moneyline; Pinnacle has +155 and your best is +155.
- The total went 47.5 → 44.5 (toward the under).
Line timeline
Every time Pinnacle changed its number, with the old number still at your books right then and how long it lasted. That window is when the best price is there to grab. Times are ET; prices are checked every 2–30 minutes, so the exact minute can be off a little.

How the line moved
Pinnacle is the sharp book: it takes the biggest bets and moves first. When your books trail it, that number is often worth grabbing.

Opened = the first price the app saved at that book (for games posted before Sep 17, the earliest it has). Best = the best value at your books. The % = how much better (+) or worse (−) each price is than Pinnacle's fair price, counting both the number and the juice (a better number with heavy juice can still be worse). Green is +1% or more: worth betting. Most prices are a little negative: that's the book's cut. Tap any price at your books to log a bet.

Money vs tickets · Spread
Few bets but lots of money on one side means big bettors are there. If the line moves against the side most people bet, that's reverse line movement. Pinnacle doesn't publish its splits; Circa is the sharp-book view when it posts a game.
