How do they come up with the percentages of who's on what teams? Do they get them from the SBR sports book?

What's a good site to find out who the public is on.

those #'s come from five dimes only....

their free version is delayed by 20 minutes, i think, but that would still be accurate if you are only looking for percentages of bets placed on one side.

SBR was using 5 Dimes only at first, but I think they added a couple of other books. I could be wrong though.

Many thanks to all who responded.

SBROdds is still exclusively using the consensus reports from 5Dimes we haven't added any other books.

Well that's that then.

Thanks Whitey.

will they be adding other books in the future?

Nothing in plan for the future, but it might be worth looking into if enough people are interested in the consensus reports.

I love as many consensus reports that I can get my hands on. especially at the bigger higher limit books....


also, speaking of books and tech stuff. why do the banners take 30 seconds to load at the top of the page now?

I'd love a square consensus with books like Bodog and SIA. Monitoring sharp books like Pinny, CRIS and Greek malkes the numbers less meaningful. Using square books makes RLM most meaningful.

Not sure, I think it was just added a few days ago probably still have some performance tweaks to make so that it loads quicker.

are the consensus numbers from 5dimes indicating the % of $ or % of actual bets on a team?

for instance you could have 9 bettors all on team A and the each bet 100 dollars and one guy bet on team B but bet 900 dollars....

is the is gonna show 90% for team a or 50%

I'll second this too, if that helps to make it happen. I'm always curious to see how bodog is sitting with it's square lines.

Number of bets, so 90% is correct. That's what make RLM so meaningful, as it gives away who the sharps are on. If you see 90% on team A at -7 and the line moves to -6 without any late injury or weather info, you know who sharps like.
