# Sharp, Profitable Sports Betting Strategies

> Source: [Sharp, Profitable Sports Betting Strategies](https://youtube.com/watch?v=iey8S4dW7hE)

## Summary

The video is a live sports betting stream where the host analyzes various player props and game lines across multiple sportsbooks, identifying value bets and arbitrage opportunities. He emphasizes using market data from sharp books like Pinnacle and prediction markets to inform his picks, and he provides real-time examples of plays he is making on platforms like PrizePicks, Underdog, and Sleeper.

### Key Points

- **Jets +590 Value** [01:14] — The host highlights a Jets +590 line on FanDuel, noting over $12,000 in crossed liquidity and contrasting it with Pinnacle's +432, calling it a sharp play.
- **Using Market Data for Player Props** [02:37] — He explains that if a sportsbook offers a player's over at plus money, it indicates the under is the more likely outcome, using Justin Champagnie's under 17.5 points as an example.
- **Underdog Optimal Slip Type** [08:06] — He states that on Underdog, the optimal slip type is a six-pick flex play, and he uses Puka Nacua's under as an example, noting the over is offered at plus money on sharp exchanges.
- **Sleeper Odds Format** [11:28] — He explains Sleeper's decimal format: a 1.7x payout is equivalent to -143 American odds, meaning a $100 bet wins $170.
- **FanDuel Arbitrage Opportunity** [14:38] — He points out Jaden McDaniels over 1.5 steals at +194, which is crossed with another book at -191, indicating an arbitrage opportunity.
- **Drake Maye Under Value** [19:32] — He highlights Drake Maye under 28.5 passing attempts at +132, noting it looks great to sharp betting exchanges, indicating strong value.
- **Better Optimal Entry Type** [24:46] — He explains that on Better, five-pick entries are optimal, and he prefers flex plays because they offer better payouts than PrizePicks for going 3-for-5.
- **Hard Rock Market Makers** [26:36] — He notes that Hard Rock offers significantly better odds than other books, citing Isaac Tesla's under at -166 and pointing out that market makers like Citadel Securities are offering the over at plus money, indicating they want to bet the under.
- **Jets Line Movement** [28:11] — He observes the Jets line has moved from +590 to +560 on FanDuel, with over $40,000 crossed, and suggests that FanDuel's odds are influenced by recreational bettors.
- **Rebet Value on Broncos** [29:12] — He points out that Rebet has the Broncos at -110, while Pinnacle has them at -137, indicating a lack of lean and potential value.

### Conclusion

The video demonstrates a data-driven approach to sports betting, using market comparisons and sharp book lines to identify value. The host emphasizes the importance of using multiple sportsbooks and understanding market signals to make profitable plays.

## Transcript

What's up, Trent Salad? Yo, what's up, guys? Sorry, I did um I did not get up early enough to stream for the earlier games, but I'm streaming
now. Unfortunately, I'm not in a state where FanDuel is legal or I would nuke Bills. This play looks really good. [snorts] Jets plus 590 crossed market. I
mean, there's over $12,000 in liquidity crossed. I mean, FanDuel just offering too much value at plus 590 on the Jets. I would bet that, but I can't. So, we're going to do some prize picks, some DraftKings pick six, some underdog
whatever you guys want to look at, we can do. [snorts] Cali [ __ ] Fliff and Onyx. Lock in, bro. Happy Sunday. Underdog, please, bro. Anyways, let's get to it. Sleeper has some discounts as
well. Which book do you guys want to start out on, man? What do you guys want to start out on? Holy moly, this underdog play looks ridiculous. Be John's gonna sell us, brother.
How many more rushing attempts do we need from Bejon? Like four. Anyways, I'm going to try to get in an underdog fantasy play first. Yo, check this out. A lot of you guys are going to hate it. Uh, they already added a multiplier.
Never mind. Unfortunately, they added a multiplier on it. But let's get in a prize pick slip to start out the stream. First play we have is Justin Champagany. [snorts] Should we do a threeman or a fiveman?
What do we want to do? Three pick or five pick flex. Yo, so the first play five pick flex. Yo, so the first play I'm going to go with is just is Justin Champagany under 17 and a half Pas. This play looks really good. I mean you can
see every sports book has his under heavily favored. you know, no vague, obviously a pretty sharp book. And for kind of a random player prop, if they're offering his over at plus 126, they're telling you
through their market, you know, his over is the underdog outcome. So, his under if his over is offered at plus money. So, let's try to do a prize picks play first. We got some good value on the board and then we can kind of move on to
another book, but let's see what we can do. [snorts] I mean, this play on Michael Carter I'm already on. It looks pretty good. So maybe we'll run it again in a five pick flex play. So we have Michael
Carter under two and a half receptions. Prize picks, you know, all these books, they got thousands of lines up at any given point. We're just trying to zone in on the picks with value. So you can see here like every sports book under
heavily favored. The markets cross since prize picks is minus 119 for a five pick flex play. Dude, Puka's line is just too high. 94 half. We got
Do we want to fade Puka? Maybe not in the same slip because maybe there's some correlation, but whatever. Um, let's see what else we got. I want to do a fiveman.
to do a fiveman. So, we have Zack Lavine under 21 and a half Pas. Yo, let's just keep this rolling. We have Zack Lavine under 21 and a half Pas. I got my boy Debo Samuel. Can the Commanders still make
the playoffs? Yo, boys, can the Commanders still make the playoffs? Five pick entry. I know two of these plays I'm already on from prize picks. Oh, Debo, don't let me [ __ ] down, bro. Commanders have just LET ME DOWN
ALL SEASON LONG. But anyways, here's the play. Five pick flex play on prize picks. One, two, three. A lot of unders. Can somebody [snorts] put the link in the chat? Commanders are ass. Shut the
[ __ ] up, Aiden Paris. Anyone says commanders are ass, your ass is getting blocked. Jaden's career is cooked. Good looks with Paul Reed. Yo, so we have a hockey play. I don't know, man.
Sometimes the values in these weirdass niche ass markets. [snorts] Here's the play. Can somebody please put the link in the chat? Trying to move as fast as humanly possible. I'm trying to move as fast as
I'm trying to move as fast as humanly possible. right? So, if you wanted to just run a threeman, you know, you could also just [snorts] but I want to move on to some other books that you guys want to look
at. So, maybe I'll run it as a threeman as well. Debo too busy eating donuts, bro. Debo is a big boy. Debo is a big [ __ ] boy.
[snorts] Yo, thank you. I Digit do pick six. Hey yo, Sai Patel, why don't you say please ever, bro? Dude, you guys want to do ever, bro? Dude, you guys want to do pick six?
through FanDuel, but again, unfortunately, I'm not in a state where FanDuel is legal. Yo, so we got people asking for a bunch of different books. I mean, I'm not going to lie. If I were you guys, dude,
you kind of got to dabble on the Jets at plus 590. [snorts] basically every sports book. Like, this is this is almost arbitrage to Pinnacle
as well. like Pinnacle, you know, one of the sharpest sports books. You don't just have to look at these peer-to-peer betting exchanges. They're only offering plus432 on the Jets. This may be a sharp as [ __ ] play. Somebody bet it for me.
Looks good to Cali. It looks good to bet online. It kind of looks good to Like this is the odds Jam arbitrage tool. All these books set their own line. So like the markets crossed. You could bet Jets on FanDuel on, you know,
Novig, the peer-to-peer betting site. Really smart. You could play Bills Guarantee a profit. But I'm not going to do that because I can't even bet on FanDuel where I'm located. We also have to do these sleeper discounts. So, just
give me a sec. [snorts] We got to do these sleeper discounts as well. Chargers plus 900. Alex, everyone is Chargers plus 900. Alex, everyone is asking for underdog.
we can do underdog first if that's what people want to do.
to try to zone in on one book at a time. As many of you probably know, California, unfortunately, no longer has rebet. You no longer have rebet. You no longer have flip. I mean, damn, dude. And there's some really good bets, man.
Broncos minus 14 and a half. Looks good. Yeah, Rebat has some good value. Pretty California. [snorts] But let's get to this. Um, so let's do an underdog slip. Underdog works like prize picks obviously. Um, but they set
different lines from one another. So I am going to run this puka under. Underdog the optimal slip type is, you know, ideally you can do a six pick flex play. That's like the best type of slip on underdog. Puka's over, you know,
on underdog. Puka's over, you know, offered plus 119, plus 105 on these really smart betting exchanges. Liquidity is decent. So, we're using this as market data to tell us like, hey, the unders, the favored, the more
likely outcome. So, that's what we want to be on. But, let's continue rolling, [ __ ] So, we got SAR under in PRs. So, we got SAR under in PRs. Yo,
I don't know what to tell you. That's just where the best value is. Sometimes there's better value in some of these weird markets. I don't know why. Um, but anyways, I'm trying to fly through plays because I know I got up
way too late today and I kind of apologize, but let's see what we can do. Who the [ __ ] is Precious Aua? This play looks ridiculous. Pinnacle has the under at minus 161. Precious Aua under 14 and
a half pas. This is beautiful. Yo, get this locked in literally ASAP. Can somebody put the link in the chat? Underdog play. They only give me $25 max on underdog because I've been way too profitable. [snorts]
But this is a solid play. Um, no correlation to worry about. Yo, link link link. Uh, let's see. What does link link. Uh, let's see. What does Sleeper have? So, Sleeper like usually
these discounts Trey Lansen at quarterback. this play's kind of crazy. I mean, Pinnacle minus 161 like Bronco like
Pinnacle minus 161 like Bronco like every data point. Anyways, [snorts] you guys had enough time. I feel like I gave you enough time. I feel like I gave
you guys enough time. But let's check out Sleeper. different sports books. So Z Flowers is discounted to 49 half.
Can you do some FanDuel player props, please? Yeah, give me a sec, bro. So let's make sure this discount on Yeah, I mean dude Z Flowers if you just look at like the odds Jam screen. Obviously this is a solid discount.
Sleeper pretty ass book in terms of everything. They give you pretty shitty everything. They give you pretty shitty odds but they do have some good dude. Is this guy's name Maxim? Isn't that the guy or the lady who is [ __ ]
that the guy or the lady who is [ __ ] Jeffrey Epstein? Oh no, that was Galain. Anyways, Sleeper, let's make sure. So, Sleeper has this over as a 1.7x payout.
payout. So, this is what I'm going to run first. So, this is what I'm going to run first. Minus 143 odds. So, if I go to an odds Minus 143 odds. So, if I go to an odds converter, 1.7, you know, it just means
minus 143, right? >> [snorts] >> You're betting a 100red to win 170. That's the multiplier and payout format, which is the same as minus 143 odds. I don't know why Sleeper, you know, puts
their odds in this weirdass decimal format, but they do. two plays. I [snorts] also ran it with the Kevin Porter play. Damn, dude. They
the Kevin Porter play. Damn, dude. They got a lot of profit boost today. Again, not really a great book to use in terms of
the NHL boost. Bro, I love my unders. I love my unders. Anyways, what do we have? Uh, six pick TD entries only. Refer a friend. Okay, so I already ran the sleep or sorry, the pick six promos,
but I do see a lot of people asking for pick six. So, let's see if we can get some stuff in. You guys want to do pick six, it sounds like. So, let's go here. Let's go here. Let's go here. Let's go here. I love my calculators, man. I love
sports betting. [snorts] Um, Let's see what we can do. So, pick six is a little dry right now, but if you
is a little dry right now, but if you haven't used the promos, let's see what we can put together. I mean, so this looks solid. Jaylen Warren over 11 and a half rushing
attempts. How many Yo, how many players do you guys need for the Yo, this is a big game tonight, too, right? If the Ravens win, are they guaranteed to make the playoffs? Did he run the sleeper NFL boost? No, I
have not run the sleeper NFL boost yet. Can you run a slip for NFL afternoon Can you run a slip for NFL afternoon slate pick six? Yes, we can. slate pick six? Yes, we can. So, let's run a pick six play.
So, let's run a pick six play. Did Bejon sell? [ __ ] my life, Did Bejon sell? [ __ ] my life, bro. The Packers suck.
could get the ball back. I mean, I guess the Saints are out of timeouts. We'll the Saints are out of timeouts. We'll see.
I did promise I would do some FanDuel player props as well. So, let's take a look. What do we got on FanDuel? Jaden McDaniels. This looks beautiful. Over one and a half steals at plus 194. Crossed right arbitrage. So, plus 194 on
the overus 191. One of those two plays has to be profitable. Divvenenzo five plus assist plus 124. I mean, there's a lot of value on FanDuel. Kind of sucks I'm not in a state with FanDuel
right now. Kevin Porter under one and a half steals. this play on the Jets keeps getting better and better. Do you guys Is it
mean, what are the Bills even what are the Bills playing for today? [snorts]
would do? Pick six. So, we got Jaylen Warren. This play looks good, right? Like, same strategy as prize picks. I mean, his over is heavily favored. That looks solid. Where does prize pick have Warren?
So, you know, prize picks has his line higher, which obviously makes us feel higher, which obviously makes us feel pretty good.
So, we got Warren over Harvey under, this play on better as well. I I didn't even I forgot about, you know, you can
see Novig, Profitex, both of these sharper books. They have his over as a pretty heavy underdog. But let's see what else we like. Let me zone in on the NFL. Uh, so we want to go here. League. Let's
just do NFL cuz pick six is a weird [ __ ] sport where you can only bet on or sorry it's a weird book. You can only bet on one book at the same time which bet on one book at the same time which is a little bit annoying but whatever.
locked in. If you need a third pick, this guy literally looks like my math teacher. This is what I'm going to run on pick six. If you can't or if you need
four picks for the promo, I would just play uh Josh Johnson under 27 and a half passing attempts. I have no idea who Josh Johnson is. None of you know who Josh Johnson is. None of you know who Josh Johnson is.
but I'm going to run this as a threeman because why not? How much are they going to let me bet? Give me three grand. thousand bucks, but [ __ ] it. Why not have fun, bro? [snorts] So, a thousand
to win 6K. Let me put the link in the chat if you want to do the pick six chat if you want to do the pick six play. Who's Josh Johnson? I don't know. None of us know who Josh Johnson is. Yo, links in the chat.
Alex, do you let Katie touch your Josh Johnson? So stupid. Yo, what do we want to do? Do we want to do this? Um, should we do the rest of the sleeper promos?
Dude, the cheese and fruit protein box. Do I want that from Starbucks or do I Do I want that from Starbucks or do I want a real sandwich? Prize picks, please. He's a substitute teacher. Sleeper.
requested. Let's see what else. Is there anything new on FanDuel? I mean, commanders. H Why are the commanders so ass, bro? H Why are the commanders so ass, bro? Sorry. Best touchdown score for today
on FanDuel. I mean, if you want NFL plays on FanDuel, Jets plus 590 is by far the best play. That play it doesn't make any sense. Again, like Pinnacle literally plus 432 and FanDuel's crossed with a lot of
books. But in terms of touchdown scores, Henderson plus 125. This play looks really good, right? Novig offering his under at minus 125. These market makers on these prediction markets like Poly Market, Cali, they're pretty smart. So
minus25, that means they want to bet the over at plus 125. [snorts] Come on, Starbucks. Um, okay. So, prize picks and sleeper
seem to be the most requested books. So, let's get it going. Prize picks. Sleeper. And again, here was the pick six play if And again, here was the pick six play if you were curious. Oh [ __ ]
Drake May under in passing attempts. This play looks beautiful. Go, go, go, This play looks beautiful. Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go. Drake May under 28 and a half passing attempts,
right? I mean, literally plus 132, decent liquidity. It looks great to to both of these pretty sharp betting exchanges, which may or may not be legal exchanges, which may or may not be legal in your state.
that are telling us, yo, this plays ridiculously good. Yeah, this Drake May play is um ridiculous. Oh [ __ ] But now I have to put the other leagues back in because I filtered it out for pick six.
have Justin Champeni. Sorry. I mean, I guess we're going to kind of be double dipping on this guy, but sorry. Justin Champeni under 17 and a half P. So, we have an NBA play. What else do we like, man? Jared Goff over in
else do we like, man? Jared Goff over in passing attempts. Zion over in RAS. What do you guys think about Zion tonight?
What do we think about this three pick entry? because I do want to look at Sleeper. I'm just going to lock it in. Link when I'm just going to lock it in. Link when he's done.
frappe with extra whip, please? Thank you, July Soup, for putting the link in the chat. Um, let's see if we can do the sleeper Um, let's see if we can do the sleeper promo real quick because otherwise,
I mean, it's an 100% profit boost. Like, that's pretty ridiculous. Sleeper though, you shouldn't be using this book for literally anything. this book for literally anything. anything aside from
Damn, we already have some college uh football plays coming up, too.
So, I have four picks so far. We need to add one more. I got to add one more. So, give me a sec. I'm thinking.
locked in. Yo, five pick entry. Can somebody put the link in the chat? Can somebody please put the link in the chat? 30 to win one again. 100% profit boost. Like, that's crazy, dude. Basically, whatever
you bet is going to be plus EV. We could do the NBA boost or we can look at underdog or better. I mean, I don't really care. It's up to you guys.
the link in the chat. Thank you, Liam McConi. look at better. kind of bouncing around, but that's what
makes it fun. Damn, dude. Better is popping. Damn, dude. Better is popping. So, let's go here to better and let's get a slip locked in. So, the first play we have is Caleb. I mean,
we're already fading him, I guess, for the sleeper promo, but whatever. They already bumped him. It was 19 and a half. Dude, better is definitely getting
half. Dude, better is definitely getting faster about these bumps.
already on it on um uh DraftKings pick six. attempts. His over, it looks great to these betting exchanges. The market is
crossed. His over is a plus 121 underdog. So, we know his under is the more likely outcome, right? And you can see here you again all these sports books under is juiced, under is favored as well.
as well. But what I really need to do
entries are optimal on better. So, that's what I'm trying to get locked in. If you go through the math, you'll see it. It's just I'm not trying to bore you. Um, but five pick entries are optimal. Yo, shut the
pick entries are optimal. Yo, shut the [ __ ] up, bro.
It looks good. Can somebody put the link in the chat? Five pick flex play. That's the optimal slip type on better. Same thing. Same thing with prize picks, but prize picks like three pick entries are are pretty marginal. Better recently
improved all their payouts. So this is the play. Take a screenshot. I mean, you can see here like the difference between better and prize picks is just if you go three for five with a flex play, you're getting 0.5 not 4x. So that's why it's
like, you know, a little bit better than prize picks. So in an I if like all the picks, you'd rather run it on better in a by in a five pick flex play.
a by in a five pick flex play. Hard Rock. [snorts] Yo, if you guys want to look at Hard Rock, oh my gosh, Hard Rock is crazy, bro. Isaac Tesla, I love his last name. I don't have a car, but if I do get a car,
maybe I'll get a Tesla. But dude, Ubering's so cheap. It doesn't make sense to have a car. Man, I can Uber even in butt [ __ ] nowhere Virginia where I'm from. It's like 16 bucks to get anywhere. Why get a
car? [snorts] I don't know. Um, but check this out. I don't know. Um, but check this out. So, this play on Tesla
E Isaac. I mean, first of all, like every other book has his under at like, you know, minus 180. Buy the stock at 140 when it's trading in the market. I guess more
it's trading in the market. I guess more around like 170, whatever. around like 170, whatever. minus 166, you know, but also like these market makers, that is a [ __ ] ton of liquidity. Someone is offering his over
for $5,000. That's not your neighbor, right? Someone's offering his over at plus 150, which means they want to bet the under which means they want to bet the under at minus 150 for 7.5K. If they're
offering the over at plus 150 for 5K, they're trying to bet the under. some market maker. Citadel Securities, Goldman Sachs, Susqua, like, you know, risk-free profit because these two books are so out of sync. But Hard Rock's a
going to get limited. But I would bet all this [ __ ] Bo Nick's interception plus 110. Smash. Were there any touchdown scores though? Let's see. Yeah, Noah Gray plus 900. I mean, bro, they're literally offering like double
the odds of every other book. Trey McBride plus 170. Smash every other book like plus 130ish. Darius Cooper plus 300 smash. No other book offering above plus 237 in the markets crossed. I wish FanDuel had more. Actually, I
don't really care. So now you can see Jets is down from plus 56 from plus 590 where they were earlier. Now they're plus 560. And now there's over 40.7K
crossed. Somebody is offering the Bills at minus549 for 40.7 [ __ ] K, which means they're trying to bet the Jets at plus 549 and you're able to get plus 560 on FanDuel. That's crazy. It's probably because FanDuel is filled with idiots
and degenerates and everyone throws the big favorites into their parlay. But why aren't there more good touchdown scorers? That's the problem. Alex, do you have your driver's license? Yes, I have my driver's license.
Fernando Mendoza is a Las Vegas Raider. Dude, we have good college football games. Both of those games are going to be [ __ ] amazing. be [ __ ] amazing. Let's check out Fluff and Rebet.
I mean, a lot of value. Like Broncos minus4. What is Rebet doing? They have this at minus 110. They have no lean in their price on both sides of the spread. Like you look at Pinnacle, every other book
you look at Pinnacle, every other book has, you know, the Broncos minus4 as a much bigger favorite minus 137. And these are tight, tight markets.
fliff. The only value I see is Bobby Portoris under 12 and a half points. I don't know, but like Broncos minus 11 and a half, Steelers plus 9 and a half. and a half, Steelers plus 9 and a half. Damn, dude. Rebet is popping.
half. There's a lot of value. But let's see if anything pops up on like I don't know. We could do prize picks. Underdog. What do we want to do, man?
So, like this play on Jared Goff. Let's see. Underdog. Nah, nothing really crazy or new. So, I'll call it a day. But enjoy the
