I think you're misinformed. Many people are on LA Tech!

For instance, check out "blankets" for a good size sample and you'll see it's pretty much split done the middle:

<TABLE class=match-logos><TBODY><TR><TD>

</TD><TD>49.02% </TD><TD>VS.</TD><TD>50.98% </TD><TD>

And if you're not that smart, 'blankets' is a code name for 'covers'.

BTW: love the Catamounts.

Very helpful info guys posting percentages of who's playing what. Thanks! :toast:

theDonger · Sep 30, 2009

Yea, Covers/Blankets doesn't track actual bets. They're just picks. You don't actually have to plunk down money to pick a team. Whereas other sites will give you a more accurate representations of where the "money" is, not necessarily the # of bets, but the percentage of amounts wagered on a side, ML, or O/U

If you're using covers to decide what the public is on, well, then that is not accurate of where actual betting money is at.

thespread.com is my favorite, especially with those pie charts

Agree.

Covers does not track "true" money bets being placed. Just FREE opinions - worthless!

Who you on tonight, Donger? I'm hanging with a hula girl and bet Hawaii +6!
Good luck! :toast:

Haven't plunked anything down yet, still looking at a couple different angles.

I also get info from my former bookie as to who he needs to win (based on the action from his players), usually if action is loaded up on one side, i'll take the other.

Just like the old days with Big Bookie? Cool.

Hope you post your play so we can check out what the bookie "needs!" Thanks! :toast:

I usually do a "FWIW" post, before SNF and MNF if, again, the action is so lopsided and all his players are on one side. I don't know how 'big' Big Bookie was, but this guy has a decent amount of players (40+) and if they're all on one side the other hits at about 70%.

Wed night college prolly gonna be a slow night wager-wise for him, but who knows?
