Exchange buyers: which side buyers took (Kalshi, Polymarket (international), Novig, ProphetX)

These are exchange trades, not sportsbook bets. On an exchange every trade has a buyer and a seller, so this shows which side buyers paid for.

How to read these numbers

Kalshi, Polymarket (international) and Novig publish every trade with the side the buyer took. ProphetX carries its trade fills the same way; a line with no captured fill shows dollars matched only. Trades is each side's share of the trades we read since we began reading the market and Money is its share of the dollars buyers paid. Markets with fewer than 10 trades or under $500 traded are left out; markets under 30 trades or $5,000 are labelled Light trading, because a few buyers can move the percentages a long way.

🛈 Wise Guy Desk analysis - not an official play. A free breakdown to help you find value and bet the best number. Ross's documented plays are graded win or loss on the members board.
📘 New to betting? Two-minute translation. A moneyline bet is picking who wins, nothing else. In this game, +170 means a $100 bet profits $170 if it wins. The spread is a head start: -7.5 must win by 8+, while +7.5 cashes by losing by 7 or fewer (or winning). The total is combined points by both teams, over or under the books' number. +EV means the price pays better than the market-implied fair odds (vig removed); consistently taking better prices raises your expected return over time.

Georgia vs North Carolina Prediction: A Line on the Move

North Carolina opened as a 3.5-point favorite. It is now 4.5, and the total jumped from 161.5 to 163.5 at three books within five minutes. The Georgia Bulldogs visit the North Carolina Tar Heels at the Dean E. Smith Center on Friday, November 13, at 7:00 PM ET on ESPN2. Both teams are 3-0, but three games into the season is far too early to call that form. That leaves the price as the real story.

The Matchup: Who Is Favored to Win Georgia vs North Carolina?

North Carolina is the favorite at home. Georgia gets three days of rest and travels 280 miles with no time-zone change. North Carolina gets two days of rest and plays game four of a home stand. Against the spread (ATS, meaning whether a team beat the betting margin, not just won), Georgia is 0-3 in three graded games, all at home and all as the favorite. North Carolina is 2-1 ATS in three graded games.

Both teams are 1-2 on the over-under (whether combined points beat the posted total) in three games. Per-game averages over three games show North Carolina holding opponents to 34.33% shooting and Georgia forcing 15.33 turnovers while committing only 7. Three games is a tiny sample, so treat those as early hints. Our rating, an Elo model used only as context, gives North Carolina 70% to win. The market sits near 63.5%.

Players to Watch

Terrence Brown leads North Carolina at 16.3 points per game over three games, a small sample. He played 31 minutes last game and 49 over seven days. Blue Cain leads Georgia at 16.0 points per game over three games, also a small sample. Cain logged 32 minutes last game and 63 over seven days, the heaviest load on either roster. Two scorers, nearly level, with too few games to call a trend.

What Is the Georgia vs North Carolina Spread?

The moneyline is a bet on who wins outright. The spread handicaps the favorite. Georgia +4.5 at -110 (best at Caesars) wins if Georgia wins or loses by 4 or fewer. On Kalshi, 73% of the money traded on the moneyline is on North Carolina Tar Heels (119 trades, $1.0k traded), light trading that can swing.

Where the Value Is

Every price has a break-even rate, how often it must win to avoid losing money. Books bake in a fee called the vig. Strip it out and you get the market-implied probability, our yardstick. Expected value is the average result per $100 risked if you made the bet many times. The over is minus $3.74, the under minus $2.95. The edge is thin. It exists only at the best number.

The Pick

Break-even is 48.5%. A 4-point win loses this ticket. Take it only at +106 or better, because a worse price raises the bar it has to clear.

The Prediction

North Carolina vs Georgia shapes up as a home team that defends the arc and a visitor that runs off turnovers. We project North Carolina 84, Georgia 77. That adds to 161, just under the 163.5 total, though we are not betting the total at these prices. The 7-point margin clears 4.5, which is the whole case in one score. That is the read on this number; the Desk posts a documented free play on days like this, and it lands right below.
