Meet the new Explore: live odds, every market, and search

The odds screen is rebuilt from the ground up. Find any game in seconds, follow live odds, and search any player, team or market from any screen.

SmartStake Team·November 3, 2026·4 min read

We rebuilt the odds screen from scratch, and it has a new name: Explore. It's made around one question: where's the best price on the bet I want? Finding a game, following a live one, or digging into a single market should all take seconds.

Explore and search are free for everyone, no subscription needed. They're in beta: ready to use today, and we're shaping them with what you tell us.

Screenshots below were captured on November 3, 2026. They show prices at that moment, not betting results or a recommendation.

Find any game in seconds

Open Explore and today's biggest games are right there, grouped by league, each with its best moneyline, spread and total and the book posting them. Pick a sport or league from the side and you're looking at its full slate.

Explore on desktop: today's games by league, each with its best moneyline, spread and total, and the leagues on the page listed on the right.

On a big screen, a column on the right lists every day and league on the page with how many games each has, so you can jump straight to the one you want. On your phone, the sports and leagues sit in one bar across the top.

Live odds, for the first time

This is the big one. The odds screen never had live odds before. Now it does, along with live scores, and all of it is new. Live shows every game being played right now, with the score, the clock and what just happened next to the best live price from every book.

The Live view: Champions League games in play with scores, the match clock and the latest event, next to the best live moneyline, spread and total.

Live prices refresh every few seconds while a game is on. Once a game starts, you only ever see live prices, so an old pregame number never sneaks in.

Tap a game and its page opens with the score up top, a bar to hop between the other games on the slate, and every market sorted into tabs like you'd find at a sportsbook.

A live game page: the score and clock, a bar of the other games in play, and market tabs from Popular to Team Props.

Every market, one tap away

Want a market instead of a game? Every league has a Markets tab listing everything priced right now, from game lines to player points, threes and first scorer, with the most popular first.

The NBA Markets tab: market groups like Points, Threes and Combos, with how many games price each market.

Pick one and you get that market across every game in the league, each at its main line with the best price per side. "Who has the best moneyline on every NHL game tonight?" is now one page.

The NHL Moneyline market page: every game tonight with the best price for each side and the book posting it.

Want to see every book at once? Switch to the Book grid and each sportsbook gets its own column beside the best price, so you can tell a real outlier from the top of a tight pack. You can pick which books show and in what order.

The Book grid: each NHL game's moneyline with the best price and every sportsbook's price side by side.

Search anything, from anywhere

The other big one. Search everything now sits at the top of every page in SmartStake, not just Explore. Type a player, a team, a game, a market or a league, and you're there. On a computer, press / to start typing.

Short forms work the way you'd say them out loud. chiefs ml finds the Chiefs moneyline, with the prices right in the results.

Searching "chiefs ml": the Jets at Chiefs game as the top result with its moneyline prices, then moneyline markets across leagues.

Search a player and you see their next game and their markets with prices, before you even open anything. Pick the player to land on their own page with every market they have on the board.

Searching "jokic": Nikola Jokic as the top result, with his next game and his player points line from the best book.

From a result you can go straight to the game, the market or the player. On your phone, tap the magnifying glass in the bottom bar and search opens full screen. The full guide: Search.

Explore on a phone: the Live view with scores and best prices, and search finding the Jets at Chiefs game with both moneylines priced.

Straight into Advanced

Tap any price, in Explore or in search, and the bet opens right beside the page. You see every book's price for that bet in the Market view, the average, and the line's history, and you can add it to your Bet Tracker in a tap.

A bet opened beside the page: the Winnipeg Jets moneyline with the best price, the average, and every sportsbook's price for both sides.

When you want the full picture, hit Advanced. It opens the same bet full screen on Advanced with a bigger line history chart, every book's price, and its fair odds, EV, vig and liquidity. Back to Explore takes you right back where you were.

Advanced for the Winnipeg Jets moneyline: line history from every book, all sportsbook prices, and liquidity, EV and vig panels.

It's in beta, so tell us what you think

Explore and search are in beta, and your feedback decides what we build next. If a game is hard to find, a search comes up empty, or something just feels off, tell us in the SmartStake Discord. If a price looks wrong, the flag on any bet sends it straight to us.

Prices can be a few seconds behind the books, so always confirm the number at the sportsbook before you bet.

Go take a look

Explore is free, so anyone with a SmartStake account can open it today from the top of the Tools menu. Check Live, open a game, and then try searching for your favorite player.
