Behind the Bets

I recommend that everyone should learn to shop lines and keep at a minimum 5-6 books. I have been asked hundreds of times for a list of the books I personally use. I have also included the books I love to use for live or in-games bets. Click the banners to sign up (each sign up helps the site).

BetOnline – Probably the book I bet at the most – great for betting live. 

BetDSI – The best book. Period. Live betting available. 

Bovada – Not my favorite book but a book you can exploit because of their square lines.

In order to properly shop lines, some type of betting software is a must have. The best software is SportsInsights. It can be a bit pricey, but it is well worth the investment if you are a serious gambler. I have used it for many  years and recommend you jump on board. They give out steam plays, picks, and let you pick which book’s lines (pretty much as many as you want) you want to observe in the program. They both offer many other features as well. Sign up by clicking the banner below (you will support the site by doing so).

The standard is set here. Perfect program in my opinion.

SportsInsights.com Review

The one website that is essential to have a membership with is SportsInsights. They provide pretty much everything new bettors and educated bettors both need. You can check live (up to the second) percentages to see who the public is betting on at any sportsbook. You will no longer have to search for the site that offers the best line at the best price; that information will be right in front of you. You will also be able to take advantage of their picks (which are consistently around 55-56% a year and will help your winning % at the end of each year). I really do not endorse very many products or services, but this is one of the few products I pay for and really could not bet without. I strongly suggest you do too if you are serious about betting sports.
