    SportsOptions Question

    Where do they get their public % from? From what sportsbooks? Where can i find the amount of bets on a certain game? I can only see the % on a game but not the total bets on a particular game like sportsinsights has. thanks

    Somewhere I have seen Rick answer that it's three books
    "Square"
    "Sharp"
    "Private"
    and they add those 3 up and get an average
    but that could be wrong or might have changed

    i'm also interested in this, would be nice to know the # of bets but looks like sportsoptions doesn't have this feature

    Can't find number of bets. That seems to be the only thing missing. Everything else looks good. If i had to compare it to SI, this one seems a little smoother in getting the info i need.

    I asked them on twitter last week and this was the response I got

    Our public percentages are drawn from the handle at a selection of large, influential sportsbooks.
    Thanks for clearing that up
