Synopsis

"The Sharp Bettor's Playbook" is a complete, honest guide to how sports betting actually works — the math, the strategy, and the discipline that separates a bettor with a plan from someone just guessing.
This expanded edition has grown to 29 chapters and includes:

• The fundamentals — how sportsbooks set odds and make money, every major bet type explained (moneylines, spreads, totals, parlays, teasers, props, and more), and a complete bankroll management system built around unit sizing and the Kelly Criterion
• A sport-by-sport strategy guide covering NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, college sports, soccer, boxing, UFC/MMA, tennis, golf, NASCAR, and horse racing
• Advanced concepts — expected value, hedging, middling, closing line value, reading public betting data, and how to build your own simple betting model from scratch
• A dedicated chapter on the psychology of betting, covering tilt, cognitive biases, and the habits that protect a bankroll
