It's the modern day equivalent of reading into Betting Splits like x% of tickets and y% of money is on this team. Completely useless information that losing bettors flock to like moths to a flame.๐ฅ You were warned.

College Basketball is already a hugely manipulated market, I can't imagine how bad it's going to be this season.๐ A lot of you are going to end up inadvertently working for sharp bettors who are manipulating you into manipulating the market.

When sharps realize that these tools gain large followings, it's going to make market manipulation even easier.๐ Instead of moving a betting line via a series of early bets, they can move the market without spending a dime by putting up big offers they never intend to be

Here's the problem. These tools aren't built by sharp bettors. They have no idea what sharp bettors are doing. ๐ณ Sharps know to offer small chunks into an exchange environment as not to spook the market. Also gives them price discovery. Even more powerful though...

The theory behind these tools is that sharp bettors can't get down on recreational sportsbooks, so they go to these exchanges to make their bets. They put up big offers in hopes that other bettors come along and accept their offer. This tool points out those imbalances.๐คจ

Knowing guys that know ball and then quantitatively applying their knowledge to a betting market. It may be the very definition of secret sauce.
Through Week 7, the Unabated CFB team is still rocking a 9% ROI on passing, rushing and rec. yards prop projections that show a 5%+ edge in the Prop Sim at time of early release. ๐งฎ 320 bets ๐ต $36,632 wagered ๐ $3,300 in profit ๐ For a 9% ROI

It's getting dark for Harry Levant. His hatchet job fearmongering stories are getting sloppier. Turns out if you have a gambling problem, it doesn't mean everyone has a gambling problem. Harry doesn't get that. https://t.co/iqC4pIPZFg

Rolling Stone conflated handle with revenue, invented statistics, and let demonstrably false claims stand, and then called it journalism.

Absolute poor form, @WALLACHLEGAL. Alex is one of the most respectful voices in this industry. To block him for disagreeing is beneath you. Fix that.
Open dialogue > echo chambers. In my professional career I have always tried to engage in open and respectful debate. This area is one where we feel very passionate, and if Daniel feels I took it too far, then I apologize. We were amidst a discussion from which I felt others

What do you need to look out for when you're playing on prediction markets? Understand your counterparty for starters, @capjack2000 says. It's not all Robinhood retail traders.

I just got back from #g2e2025 and the topic on everyone's lips was PREDICTION MARKETS. I was amazed at how little people understood about how they worked. So I made a video about it. Full video link in the first reply.โคต๏ธ
