Sports Betting Percentage Sites

is there any sites that actually calculate betting money/instead of amount of individual bets are made to a side/spread??? just curious because the moon palace guy's thread made me wonder about that.

dont matter if its a pay site like donbest or free like sbrodds but is there a site that gives amount of money bet on a side?

any help would be great guys. thanks

Everything I have ever seen is by total bets. I dont think any book would give out total money on each side.

thats what i thought. i didnt think any sites gave out that info. so is looking at total bets very decieving then??????

im assume total money on a side would move a line more than total bets?

i believe alot of people that fade the public look at these sites and will probably get a wrong perception of where the money is at and where the line is moving.

i do look at the percentages after i make my picks to make sure anything isnt fishy. but now im lead to believe that i shouldnt be really looking at the sites because it is pretty decieving?

I only look at the games with a huge amount of bets on one side with reverse line movement. Then you know big money was put down on the other team.

ron, but what if the sharp money is the smaller percentage, say 20% or 30% but the money actually bet sways to 60/40 towards the other side?
