Whether you’re stepping up from the Props+ tier or jumping straight in, our Premium tier lets you put your hands on every tool and resource that Unabated has to offer.
With these tools you’re equipped to effectively analyze the market; find outlier lines that create plus-EV opportunities; easily compare alternate lines and derivatives to maximize your surface area; find spots in in-play markets; and much more.
There are a few tools to learn that are unique to Premium members. They’re incredibly powerful assets on the hunt for value, and you should spend the time to learn everything you can about them in order to get the most benefit from your membership.
The first Premium-exclusive tool you need to learn is the feature that sets us apart from any other sports betting resource: The Unabated Line.
Odds Screen and Betting Tools
- De-vigging one market maker line does not a sharp consensus make. The Unabated Line goes well beyond that. Our data science team explores which books are sharpest for each sport, weights them and blends them to give you the sharpest, vig-free consensus available anywhere. Here’s a more detailed look at the Unabated Line, and how you can use it to find plus-EV spots.
- The Edge Tool is based off the Unabated Line. See just how negative or positive an edge is at any given book. When it turns green, it’s a plus-EV spot When the edge turns green, you’re in a plus-EV situation relative to the Unabated Line.
- All market-making books are available on the Odds Screen to Premium members. These are currently: Bookmaker, Circa Sports, 3et and Sharp Book P, a real-time odds feed that approximates current prices at Pinnacle. See what the situation is at the sharpest books before you make your bets. What’s a market maker and why are they important? If you’re not familiar with this essential component of top-down betting, learn all about it to understand a core concept central to your Unabated membership.
- The value of a half point is the fundamental question for betting any spread, total or prop. Our data science crew pours loads of time and energy into determining the precise value of the half, and the payoff for that is an Alternate Lines Calculator that can help you find out where books are frequently mispricing their derivatives, and just what your edge is in betting them. Here’s how to put it in action.
- Similarly, the Partial Game Derivatives Calculator takes full game sides and totals and will price out first halves and quarters in the NFL, first halves in college football, and periods in the NHL. Get started pricing partials and hit markets that are more lightly defended.
Just a note on MLB First 5 Innings – the F5s have their own Unabated Line. BThey aren’t available in the calculator, but you can get to those on the MLB Odds Screen. Just toggle the drop-down from “Full Game” to “First 5 Innings” - The Teaser Shopper will show you just how much of an edge your teaser plays have in the NFL, NBA, college football and basketball, and the WNBA.

Betting Concepts
The tools are crucial, but technique is the other half of the coin. When you’re learning how to become a sharper bettor there are a few broad concepts you need to be familiar with that are foundational to understanding the tools at Unabated.
- Top-down betting is at its core about trying to figure out a “source of truth,” or true probability of an event, then hunting for prices that offer value relative to that probability. Captain Jack shows you how sharp bettors use the idea to win at sports betting.
- Bottom-up betting is about determining the true probability of an event through your own efforts, like modeling. Here are the basics of originating your own lines.
- Bonus hunting is a jumping-off point for building your bankroll. Here’s how to best take advantage of risk-free bets.
- Arbitrage betting is a hot topic at the moment. The appeal is in grinding up small profits with little or no risk. But are arbs worth betting?
- Like arbing, most people think of hedge betting as a way to mitigate risk. But it’s better understood as a function of optimizing bankroll growth. Rufus Peabody explains why.
- Good bankroll management won’t make you a winning bettor. But bad bankroll management could wipe out you. Here are some misconceptions people have about bankroll.
- Closing line value is a useful guide for analyzing some bets – but not all. Here’s what you need to know about CLV.
- What does it take to go pro? The mental game of betting is as important as the technical elements. You need to have the right mentality.
