The Logic of Sports Betting
Book • 2019
This book provides an in-depth look at the mechanics of sports betting, including how sportsbooks make their lines, the types of bets that are most advantageous, and strategies for beating the house.
Written with humor and real-world insights, it breaks down the process into three sections: how sportsbooks work, the logic of sportsbook betting, and identifying good and bad bets.
The authors emphasize that sports betting is a unique zero-sum game where the house is an active participant and that success requires a deep understanding of data and mathematical modeling.
