Intro

Insider Stats is an all-in-one analytical dashboard designed for everyday sports bettors, providing detailed statistical insights to enhance your betting decisions. It features referee stats, betting splits, live matchup data, and individual team season stats. It also includes a few of our own unique betting indicators, Big Money and Vegas Backed. These two indicators quickly highlight where sharp bettors and sportsbooks are placing their trust, helping you spot valuable betting opportunities. With comprehensive coverage across all major sports, from the NHL to NCAAB, Insider Stats has everything you need to start betting with confidence.

The Database

Our extensive database is at the heart of Insider Stats, containing historical and current data from every game, across every major sport, and it's updated daily. We've invested thousands of hours meticulously collecting and organizing this information from leading sports reporting sites, ensuring accuracy, reliability, and timeliness. All the referee records and team insights you see on Insider Stats pull directly from this continuously updated database, providing you with live data you can trust to guide your betting decisions.

Referee Statistics

Referees influence game outcomes more than you might think, and we have the stats to prove it. Initially, we were skeptical that referees had a significant impact. But after collecting and analyzing referee data from every game across every season, the evidence became impossible to ignore. This data will give your bets that small edge that could make the difference between thousands of dollars long term. With Insider Stats, you’ll finally understand the hidden influence of referees, and start turning those small edges into big wins.

Betting Splits

Betting splits offer a window into the dynamics of sports wagering, revealing how both the general public and seasoned bettors are placing their bets. Both of our two indicators; Big Bettors and Vegas Backed are derived directly from betting splits. Here’s exactly what they are and how you can use them to make smarter bets:

Big Money Indicator

Our Big Money Indicator highlights exactly where professional bettors are placing their bets—here’s how it works. By examining the percentage of total bets (bet percentage) and the percentage of total money wagered (money percentage) on each side of a game, we can see where the public lies, and conversely, where the big bettors lie. For instance, if a team has 70% of the total bets but only 40% of the total money wagered, it suggests that while many casual bettors favor that team, more informed bets are being placed on the opposing side. This discrepancy indicates "sharp money" and may lead to shifts in betting lines. We've also added a strength meter, which doesn't just calculate the presence of sharp money—it clearly shows how significant that sharp action is, helping you quickly identify bets with high potential value.

Vegas Backed Indicator

Our Vegas Backed Indicator analyzes betting splits and line movements to pinpoint exactly which bets the sportsbooks themselves trust the most. By tracking how odds shift in relation to the distribution of bets and money, we identify positions bookmakers actively favor, even if they're unpopular among casual bettors. For example, consider the Nuggets at -1 (-115), attracting only 34% of public dollars. Meanwhile, the Warriors' spread is widely favored by the public, yet their line has shifted dramatically from -3 to +1. This significant reverse line movement suggests sportsbooks are confident backing the Nuggets despite public preference for the Warriors. The built-in strength meter doesn't just identify these Vegas-backed opportunities—it clearly illustrates their importance, instantly highlighting the bets with the greatest potential value, so you know exactly which insights matter most.

These two indicators provide exclusive betting insights that you won’t find anywhere else. We have used these two indicators in our Insider Bets for years, and they have proved to be successful time and time again.

Head-to-Head Records

Our Head-to-Head Records gives you an instant snapshot of how teams perform against each other, as well as how they've historically fared in similar betting situations throughout the season. It clearly outlines each team's performance against the spread (ATS), moneyline (ML), and totals (O/U), along with their overall profitability. You'll immediately see how teams have performed in head-to-head matchups, their general performance for the season, home versus away games, and as underdogs or favorites. This helps you quickly identify betting trends and situations where a team consistently delivers.

Team Stats

Our Team Stats makes comparing team performance quick and easy. See key metrics like points scored, points allowed, offensive ratings, and shooting percentages, both in head-to-head matchups and over the entire season. This clear side-by-side view helps you quickly spot strengths, weaknesses, and betting advantages.

The Future

We’re always working to enhance Insider Stats, and one of our upcoming features is the addition of Quick-View Tabs. This will allow you to instantly access organized lists of all Vegas Backed or Big Money bets across every sport, without needing to click into each sport individually. Our goal is to streamline your betting research, making it faster and easier than ever to find the sharpest bets available each day.

Conclusion

Insider Stats is more than just a dashboard, it’s your ultimate companion for smarter, sharper sports betting. By providing detailed referee statistics, unique betting indicators, insightful betting splits, and intuitive head-to-head and team performance data, Insider Stats equips you with everything you need to bet with confidence. We’re continually improving and expanding our features, committed to keeping you ahead of the sportsbooks.
