Overnight Grind : Market Makers VS Sharps October 11, 2022
Anthony P
While most of us are sleeping, Market Makers and Sharps are adjusting the markets so that by the time we wake up and are ready to bet, the markets have adjusted in favour of the sportsbook. Let's take a quick look at some games where the sportsbooks had to make some adjustments based on heavy sharp interest.
Market Makers are sportsbooks that are the first to post a line and set the market. They will control risk by lowering their bet limits when posting a spread or Moneyline before everyone else. Once the market adjusted, they max their bet limits. Talbot has been hot and won his last 8 starts but don't discount Jarry he's been solid this year.
RECAP: We skipped yesterday since there wasn't much action.
We look for sharps to be much more active in MLB now that the NHL and NBA seasons are over however this is not the sport that sharps are the most excited about since market makers tend to have very low max limits early on most of the games due to many variables in MLB. Weather is one of them and probably the most important.
For VIPs, your best start would be to look at the morning sharp report, which will give you an excellent summary of what happened overnight. In the afternoon, the sharp report updates and games might be added or removed based on what happened in the morning. The last update is around 4-5 pm EST and not much movement is expected after that. If there is movement, it will usually be square money loading up on games before they start.
Another tool that can be used with the sharp report is the MLB model on our website. Comparing the sharp money with our projection can help you make your own picks if both the model and sharp agree.The format of this article will be changed once we will have multiple sports running every day and the focus will go back to looking at lines that moved the most overnight.
We had a great MNF game yesterday even though I didn't win my bet on the Chief. However, I had some pocket change on Maholmes over PY and TD passes which helped.
Welcome to the NHL season. This officially marks the end of summer for me even if we are still getting temperatures in the mid 70's in Montreal! We have 2 games today and, 6 tomorrow and 10 on Thursday.
With all that excitement in mind, I confirm I have nothing to report for tonight's 2 games. Sorry.
In the NBA we have 5 games and except for the total in Orlando, it's been very quiet also. The Grizzlies and Magic opened at 211 in the offshore market and the over was hit to 214.5.
In Baseball we have one game, in particular, that is worth covering. The sharp report has Cleveland and New York to go over however it's not the game I want to cover.
The majority of the books opened the total in Atlanta at 6.5o -110 yesterday morning and it moved to 7 with 40 minutes and 7.5 by 2 pm. This morning, Betonline had it at 7o -130 and finally pushed it to 7.5o +105. Full point increase on the over in Atlanta. Over trends have been hot for both teams.
Good luck today
