Market report: 3 arbitrage windows and where the sharp money went
Book-to-book price gaps, which leagues the sharp money actually shows up in, and whether backing the crowd covered.
A lot happened at the windows this week — the highlights below. Across 129 games on the board, 3 markets are currently priced far enough apart between books to lock a return, and the cheapest hold available averages out well under what a single-book bettor pays.
Open arbitrage
| Game | Market | Return | Books |
|---|---|---|---|
| WVU at UVA | moneyline | +101.18% | Caesars / DraftKings |
| ASU at KU | moneyline | +40.73% | bet365 / Caesars |
| TEM at TOL | moneyline | +0.92% | Caesars / bet365 |
Where the sharp action is
| League | Divergent games | Reverse moves | Steam |
|---|---|---|---|
| NCAAF | 60.3% | 53.8% | undefined% |
| NFL | 56.3% | 14.3% | undefined% |
Fading the crowd
| Ticket share | Games | Cover rate |
|---|---|---|
| 50–60% | 0 | 0% |
| 60–70% | 0 | 0% |
| 70–80% | 0 | 0% |
| 80%+ | 0 | 0% |
Cover rate is measured on the side holding the ticket majority. A number within a point or so of 50% is noise; it takes a persistent gap across thousands of games before "fade the public" is a strategy rather than a slogan.
