Back to EpisodesColts-Commanders Line Flips in London: Jo Madden Says the Hook Matters | Madden On The Line
Description
The betting market has made a major move on Colts-Commanders in London.
Washington opened as the favorite. Now Indianapolis is laying 3.5 points—meaning the line crossed zero and, more importantly, moved through the key number of three.
On this Madden On The Line short, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., explains why that movement matters and why bettors shouldn't blindly rely on familiar theories such as “London games always go under” or “always take the underdog overseas.”
Instead, Jo focuses on the numbers. At Washington +3.5, she sees the extra half-point—the “hook”—as meaningful. If the line falls back to +3, she says she wouldn't touch it. She also examines alternative markets, including the first-half under and team totals, rather than forcing a bet on the full-game spread.
The records may say Colts 1-2 and Commanders 1-2, but the betting line is telling a much more interesting story.
Betting lines can change. This discussion reflects the market referenced during the recorded episode and is for informational and entertainment purposes.
