We already know that bettors can’t get enough of the Golden Knights. But since they are finally an underdog in the Western Conference Final, that angle has taken on new meaning.
Folks aren’t just betting with their hearts. Now it’s a value play that created a land rush Thursday night after the Westgate sports book posted the Winnipeg Jets as a minus 160 favorite over the Knights, who opened at plus 140.
But that didn’t last long. By Friday morning, Vegas had been bet to plus 120.
Plus money on the Knights sent alarms buzzing. Chris Andrews at the South Point certainly felt that, especially since his book is open 24 hours.
