Handicapping Books (reading books)

08-19-10, 04:18 PM

Anyone know of good handicapping books that give good insight into sports betting in general (and maybe specific)? I'm looking for something that talks about math, maybe some angles, how the industry works and ways to take advantage of it, and maybe some specific sports as well. Any help will be appreciated.

Sharp Sports betting- Stanford Wong
Weighing the odds in Sports betting- King Yao

These are generally considered to be two of the top books.

I saw good reviews of those books on amazon but wanted to ask here before I ordered them.

Read Ganchrow threads/posts, Sticked thread in 2+2 sportsbetting subforum specifically wells, brush up on stats. Think tank has some good posters as well. You'll be able to tell which ones after you learn a bit.

The Smart Money/The odds one season/other forums + this one for general sportsbetting world.
