    What are some good sports betting books?
    Was wondering if anyone can recommend a good sports betting book to read that explains RLM and how to spot public vs sharp plays in detail. Like when you can tell if the % bet on a certain side is from the wise guys or a large wager has moved the line. Thx. Will swing some points for recommendations. I figure I'm never gonna stop betting, might as well have all the information possible. I know knowledge of the sports and intuition only get u so far.

          I will give you 2 pts worth of advice... Use 4 books, 5Dimes, BetIslands, Heritage and *****. Shop for the best line of games you like and don't pay attention to the public

                That doesn't even matter. Read the first post and you'll see he's talking about gambling books to read not online sports books.

                    Omfg, I have noticed there have been some people on here lately that may need to take some English Comprehension courses. And the guy that posts a laugh because I was asking for some good book recommendations. Wow, this forum is getting pretty bad.

                        the % numbers available to the public are just the number of bets placed on each side at certain offshore sportsbooks. nothing to do with amount of money.

                          becuase they were recieving too many positive posts on threads about them and SBR doesn't want non paying sponsers building there cliental here.

                              Not that I recommend taking that approach or the book itself, but from reading the synopsis there appears to be a lot of 'bet against the public' stuff in this book:
