The betting percentages are real numbers from real sportsbooks. All information comes directly from the participating sportsbooks’ respective databases. We have agreements in place with these sportsbooks to display betting percentages on individual sporting events to the public. We poll the participating sportsbooks’ databases every 1-2 seconds and compiles running averages. These averages are expressed in terms of percentages and are displayed to the public in pie chart form. The “Market Average” betting percentages represent an average taken across the participating sportsbooks. Members can monitor betting statistics for individual sportsbooks before the data is averaged together.
