Public Betting Percentages.....

Nowhere

Those numbers aren't accurate

Sports Insights is accurate. They pay the books they use to get access to certain parts of the books' databases. SBR Odds is accurate too, but they are 5 Dimes only.

i started winning when i met sportsinsights

never tried donbest or the rest

Sweet! Thanks for the insight fellas!

So I'm assuming that sportsinsights averages the percentages together for the sportsbooks they get the info from

You can get a breakdown by book if you pay. The averages displayed on main page that free sites SI powers (such as two minute warning) use are average across all books.

Once again thanks LT!

Streak for cash or covers consensus.

These are accurate because of the simplicity. No real questions in regards to the percentages.
I can't justify paying for this type of info from sportsinsights or donbest.

Smokey is correct

Inaccurate and a waste of time

BuddyBear · 07-10-12, 07:12 PM

who the public bets on doesn't matter all that much. Sportsinsights is a gimmick stite.

You might also want to check out Sportsbookspy at Pregame....It gives you betting % and the total wagers placed on a sporting event.

More important to know who the money is on rather than public percentages.

No knowing % is more important because it allows you so spot sharp money moves at a glance (RLM). Knowing money percentage is actually pretty meaningless because lines move with the money like 99% of the time.

Watch line services thats all

Throw away public percentage

square way to cape

Smoke · 07-10-12, 07:45 PM

JJ these guys have no clue

The numbers are not accurate I don't care if it's a paid service they are not accurate.

Joe Dogs · 07-10-12, 07:47 PM

Just tried a subscription to SportsOptions with points from SBR. I'm very impressed with there software.Lots of bells and whistles.

For bases ,betting %,Starting line ups,umpires records behind the plate,lots of good info.

The full service is not cheap,I would recommend it for the serous sports wagerer.

Anything you pay for is eating at your profits...

Anyone who charges a fee in gambling is an ex-gambler himself who couldn't hack it and went for the easy route...

The gambler who wins every time? The bookie.

So how do you know whos moving the line?

Does the line only at pinny if sharp money is on it? And other books tend to follow?

Or do books move their lines based on money to balance lines and sharp money at Pinny allows them to alter their lines after money comes in? They still tend to have the best lines on both sides regardless though.

Smoke- do you just cap games/have a model and not worry about sharp money

If money/percentage are all skewed and inaccurate do you play the line moves on everything minus it moving in favor of the major public teams or what?

jjgold · 08-03-12, 03:30 PM

It's garbage

It's means nothing

No way to tell hat type of bettors are in what

Book managers know only where sharp and square money is as every player is profiled.
