And I've made over $500 in just one week using this exact live betting is just gambling on gut feelings. But there's actually a systematic approach that can be used to generate consistent profits in under 60 seconds per bet. I've been using Odds Jam for 4 years now, making $100,000 using their tools. But this specific live betting strategy has allowed me to live betting strategy has allowed me to bank $521 in profit with a 17% ROI in just 7 days. I'm about to walk you through my exact Odds Jam live betting target, how I set up my filters, and the exact one minute execution process that profits. Pay attention to these next few minutes because this can be the difference in adding an extra five to six figures in your bank account. Let's walk through my exact setup now over here on the Odds Jam positive EV tool. middle and click on the filters section. The first thing, if you're brand new to live betting, specifically EV betting, I would focus on just taking advantage of games that are in stoppage, halftimes, timeouts, commercial breaks, injury down. It will allow you a little bit extra time to capitalize on the have been live betting for a bit, go ahead and click on live to add these on live. You have to [music] be even quicker though when games are going on live compared to stoppage. Next up, I like to keep things within a flip of a coin. Minus 125 to plus 125. A few reasons behind this. Number one, when we're looking to maybe go after slight alternate totals or spreads, we don't have to scroll through a long list of games and look at all the different options. minus125 to plus 125 is just off the main lines. It's slightly better or worse than a flip of a coin. When it comes to EV percentages, you can either comes to EV percentages, you can either set this at 3%, 5%, or 7%. Now, we're going to break down in just a few seconds how much money I like to put towards each play because there is a certain type of ladder system that I like to use. Next up, DVIG settings. It's always Pinnacle. I always lean on Pinnacle for all sports. NBA, college basketball, the NFL, Major League Baseball, the NHL. Pinnacle is my go-to. At time to time, depending on the sports, I will add in FanDuel specifically for the NFL. I like to use Pinnacle is my safe choice. And then using worst case as the DVIG method. It's the most safest [music] DVIG method out of all the available options. Next up, we are going to focus just on for today's game because it's a Monday. We have Monday Night Football. We also have college basketball and the NBA. But if you want to get started, just focus on one sport when you're first getting into a little bit easier on a day like today where the NBA and college basketball is going on. There's so many bets, so many different games. We want to just maybe Football, maybe just college basketball to start. And last but not least, main markets. I only bet main markets. First off, for player props, there's not many sharp books, if any at all, that offer player prop odds. And because it's such low liquidity, it's very difficult to get a sense of which books are sharp and which aren't. So, I just avoid it altogether. I just stick to main markets. Let's talk about the sports books and the easiest ones to pick on when it comes to live betting. Without a doubt, in no particular order, Bet MGM, Caesars, Fanatics, Bet Rivers, and DraftKings. Add in the score here at the very bottom. These would be my number one books that I would look to focus on when live betting. After this group, I would throw FanDal in next. I find some with college basketball, but for the most part, I stick to these sports books. Now, that's a large sample size to go after. I would highly recommend when you're first starting out, pick one or two sports books. So, I'm going to just go with a combination of DraftKings, Bet MGM, and Caesars right everything set up, before I go ahead and click the play button, when it comes to my betting strategy, I already have a preloaded betting strategy ready to go. I'm not trying to figure out while I see the plays in real time what I should be betting. So, anything that falls between 3 to 5%, I bet $50. From 5 to 7%, I bet 3 to 5%, I bet $50. From 5 to 7%, I bet $80. And from 7% or higher, I bet $120. I have this chopped up. So, when I see a play and I know it falls between a certain range, I automatically know what I'm going to wager. I don't have to go ahead and focus on what the wager size is. I like to use more of a flat unitstake type of betting strategy where it's just bing bang boom. Very simple because time is of the essence. We want to be able to lock in these plays and I don't want to have to stop, click into the calculator and figure out, well, you know, we're getting this at actually plus 108 odds and this is 4% and what is this? No, no, no, no. I just have three standard bet sizes that I know based off of the edge that I have on the play, I know what I'm going to bet. Now that we before I click the play button, I'm going to log in to all three of these sports books so that they're ready to go and I'm going to take advantage of the one-click bet feature. As long as you're logged into the books, the plays are automatically going to pop up. So then I just go ahead and click play. And the is there's a stoppage play over here on this under. I go ahead and click the bet button and the play automatically is loaded up here for me. I don't have to worry about anything else. I notice that it's a 5% edge play, just over 5%. I'm going to go ahead and wager [music] $80 on this play. We lock in an incredible price on this under 144 12 in a matter of seconds. Once we do all of the leg work, setting up our parameters and filters, it's very simple then to find plays with an edge. Rinse and repeat. You can see here on this play, the pinnacle is at minus13 odds, which means we have to put up $113 to profit 100 bucks. We're getting paid out at plus 105 over here on MGM. I simply just come over here, type in $80 knowing that we locked in incredible value.
