The books never "NEED" that many games in a single day. The majority of the time they will just need one side or total. Like a few days ago they need the Nationals in GM3 of the series with the red Sox. Today, all of the squares were on the over in the Toronto game, which pushed or won for the books depending on the line.
I'm not sure where you are getting the percentages, etc. but the sites that I know that show that kind of stuff show percentages - not amount bet. It matters not if 75% is on one side if all the big bettors are on the other side. If up to date info of just how much a book has on a particular side would ever be made available publicly, it would be a gold mine. But, since that will never happen...LOL.
Good luck..

We can only use what is available to us in the form of stats or percentages and than find a way to use that information to our benefit for profit. This is an attempt to use the date from an unamed site to wager against the public betting. My assumption is that the sharps bet early and late so try to use this data a hour or two before the game based on parameters I have set. The research is only a month old starting on May 28th. I tried some filters that did not work to limit plays. It has amazed me that the percentages on one side are so many each day. I may find filters that will work as I go along, but for now am showing a profit after many plays over a short period so believe their is justification to study further and modify if needed to lower the number of plays.
Thanks for your comment and good luck to you also. For me this is research so that I might devise my own system and not have to rely on others to choose my plays for me. :toast:
