How to Use the OddsView EV Tool: A Step-by-Step Guide
Introduction
Welcome to OddsView! Our EV Tool helps you find and place profitable bets easily. We'll walk you through how to use our tool to identify positive EV bets along with their optimal bet amounts and one-click bets.
What is the EV Tool?
The OddsView EV Tool finds Positive Expected Value bets (EV) by scanning thousands of bets per second across your sportsbooks. By doing this, we can identify outlier bets that are mispriced and can be exploited for your profit.
These outlier bets are known as +EV bets which are mathematically profitable over time. Along with finding these bets for you, we also calculate the optimal bet size and take you directly to these bets.
