When something is circled

[Hoghead]

I have a question for anyone who may know.If an event is circled for example Winky Wright ov 11.5 rounds, is it because the book is afraid of one side or the other and if so how can you figure out which side they are afraid of taking too much action on or allowing in a parlay.Just wondering.Thanks

Not really. Pinnacle for example might circle a single match on the NBA card and post it late. This limits their exposure until the market adjusts to punters expectation.

So I think the answer is they limit action until the market adjusts to a stable price.
