Faster game-status updates, new books and EuroLeague

Know sooner when play stops and starts

We've rebuilt how we track what's happening in live games. You'll now see:

  • Stoppages flagged up to 30 seconds sooner: TV timeouts, team timeouts, period and inning breaks.
  • Football back to "in play" up to a minute faster after a break ends.
  • College football TV timeouts, tracked for the first time. Commercial breaks in college games used to go unflagged; now they're flagged in your game status.

Compared with our previous tracking, that means less time looking at a status the game has already moved past, and more context while you're comparing live prices. Timing and coverage vary by sport and event.

See what the live game status tells you. Prices can still move or markets suspend at the sportsbook, so confirm the price before placing a bet.

More books and basketball to compare

Nitro, LuckyRebel and BetMania are now part of SmartStake's sportsbook coverage, giving you more places to compare prices.

We've also added EuroLeague basketball to our coverage. Available events and markets vary by sportsbook. Explore our sportsbook and league coverage.

See where your bets came from

Bets tracked from a SmartStake tool now automatically get that tool's tag, such as Positive EV, Smart Money or Fantasy. We've also applied those tags to previously tracked tool bets.

That makes it easier to separate your results by the tools you use, alongside your own labels. You can manage them like any other tag in Organizing with tags.

Track the side you placed

You can now record either side of a matched bet on its own. If you only placed one side, you no longer need to add both to your history.

This works in the Arbitrage Finder and Promo Converter. The side you track grades and counts independently.

Compare exchange prices more easily

Exchange and prediction-market prices now show implied probability alongside American or Decimal odds, across bet cards, details and calculators.

You can compare the percentage price without changing your preferred odds format. It's the probability implied by the price, not our estimate of the bet's chance of winning.

Bug fixes and optimizations

  • Updated DraftKings Pick6 payouts by league, added 7- and 8-pick Fantasy slips, and corrected Underdog payouts.
  • Fixed eligible bets getting stuck pending during grading.
  • Corrected win-loss-push records so cashouts count by actual profit and voided bets stay out of the record.
  • Tightened CLV scoring to require closing prices on both sides of a market.
  • Fixed duplicate Insiders picks and repeated tracking submissions, corrected sportsbook links, and improved iPhone launch, scrolling and navigation.

Take a look

Open Positive EV and switch to Live to follow the game alongside the prices. Your tool tags are waiting in the Bet Tracker.
