The Sharp Report for Aug 16, 2023

This article will be updated throughout the day as I get updates from the sportsbook I can access.
 
Each section will be explained below, and the time will be added when the Sharp Report is updated. You can use this information to make your picks or tail the hot sections. Historically, we want to tail the sharp plays and fade the book and square plays. The Whale bets are huge, and he's trying to win 1 million in 2023. He's one of the most respected bettors at the sportsbook. Remember that this information comes from a sharp / market maker sportsbook, and the squares (public) playing there are more experienced than regular Joe's betting on retail books; therefore, they mind finding success in the short term.

Last update: 4:30 PM (EST) IN PROGRESS 

The sharps went 0-3 yesterday. The Cubs game was a confusing one. There was a lot of hype on the Cubs without squares interest and they failed to win. 5 runs were scored in the first 1 /12 inning and the total stayed under. The Aces get blown away again, this time at home and by almost 20 pts. The Liberty has clearly been the best team in the last 2 weeks. The total stayed under as NY played another phenomenal defensive game.

The Whale bounced back from a 0-2 day and went a perfect 3-0!

The Squares are down 20 units this month, let's keep on fading them!!

Updated around 4 pm, in this section, you will find the top plays that the book will cheer for since they took large sums of money on the opposite teams.
