The Sharp Report for Aug 17, 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: 4:15 PM (EST) IN PROGRESS 

Really an uneventful day for the sharp report. Sharps went 1-1 and broke even. The squares went 1-1 also but lost close to half a unit. The whale 1-1 also. The winner was fading the book.

Another small slate today but we have some football and WNBA to compensate.

GL today!

Sportsbook liabilities:

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. I know the house always wins; however, this info comes from a sharp book, and these plays have been the most consistent when they are faded, especially when there is no public interest on the other side.
