    Are you compiling a database? Trying to put it into Excel or your own interface? Want to build an interface? I do.

    Anyway, I'm not sure of your goal, but SBR Odds is good.

    In my opinion, in this business, the only way to do things is to do them yourself.

    Take every book you have access to, directly take the odds from them, you're logged in account if possible, then have them feed into your own interface or your own Excel interface.

    Then you know what you get, where, and when.

    Maybe take from SBR, then try with some books you have, and see the difference.

    SBR is actually a pretty solid free source for a quick update on odds, the problem is that books don't always update to SBR. Some are hours behind before sending updates. Some only update during busy or "peak" hours.

    If you just want openers and closers, be consistent in what ever you use, but I have found a decent source for the most important of the two, and it has always, with the exception of obvious mistakes, been a solid opening line source.

    I'm old school. Bottom line, some info I take off the net by hand into a spiral notebook, then put it back into the computer for further digestion.

    The notebook is what I'd like to turn into an interface with the info just getting filled in each day. Would save a lot of leg work.

    I hired a girl, but she quit...

    My program scrapes box scores for player/team stats and inserts into MySQL database. The program can be configured to launch automatically every morning to scrape yesterday's games or it can be run manually over multiple date ranges to scrape past seasons. I also output all the data as a CSV (comma separated values) text file so I can import it into other databases or excel if I need to later. Once the box score data is in the database, I can derive tables for season stats, advanced stats, splits, etc. Then a website reads from my schedule table to see who's playing and displays individual game matchups in a format I like.

    I also wrote a scraper to log onto book, collect lines, place bets if conditions were met. I'm afraid they will detect my robot and ban me, need to do more research. I would definitely not want to be logging in around the clock scraping lines, they would detect that. I'll go for a bunch of different odds sources I think, can't hurt. Maybe scrape book once every half hour during waking hours.

    I did one project for a relative. He spent hours every week visiting multiple websites and writing stats down on a piece of paper. I wrote an automated program to visit all the sites, store the data in a database, and display it on a website exactly the way it appeared on his piece of paper.

    When you say interface, are you referring to an automated program? Have you ever used SQL? How much is your time worth? Because you could easily hire someone to automate any data collection process. I could help you out maybe. Are you trying to have an automated program visit websites, collect data, and output a file that you would then manually import into excel? Or are you trying to directly insert into an existing excel spreadsheet a new row of the data you just found? Either way could be easily done.

    The sharp forecast says Golden State beats San Antonio 114-101. The public gauge has Golden State winning 110-101.

    I likely won’t be here at tip so I’m just putting the numbers out there. The Total is closer to the gauge this time but the public bets are consistent with the forecast…on the Over.

    Can the Spurs get a second consecutive 10 point upset? The recent string of favorites lends credence to this type of settlement and I wouldn’t put it past the NBA one bit.

    Good Luck today and give your Mothers some Love.
