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.

How to read this: "chance to win per the betting market" comes from the actual odds with the sportsbook's built-in fee (the vig) stripped out, the market's honest opinion of the game.
🛈 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, +265 means a $100 bet profits $265 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.

Iona vs Hofstra Prediction: One Number, Two Prices

The spread is 7.5 points, and one book pays plus money on one side of it. Another book charges -110 on the other side of that same number. That gap is the whole story of this Iona vs Hofstra game for a bettor. The Iona Gaels visit the Hofstra Pride on Friday, November 13 at 7:00 PM ET at the David S. Mack Sports and Exhibition Complex. The game streams on FloSports.

The Matchup: Who Is Favored to Win Iona vs Hofstra?

Hofstra is the favorite. As of November 12, Iona is 2-2 and Hofstra is 1-2. That is four and three games into the season, far too early to call form. The last meeting, 371 days ago, went against Hofstra. Iona has covered the spread (beaten the betting margin) in 3 of 4 graded games. That is a tiny sample, context only.

Rest is even: two days each. Travel is not. Hofstra flew 2,152 miles home from Tempe across two time zones east. Iona came 16 miles from the Bronx for game three of a road trip. Our rating, an Elo model built on stored results, gives Hofstra 78% to win, a bit above the market's 73%. That is context, not a bet.

Players to Watch

Iona's Kevon Vanderhorst averages 13.8 points per game over four games. He played 36 minutes last game and 63 over the past seven days. Hofstra's Trey Boyd III averages 10.7 points per game over three games, a small sample to watch rather than trust. The team per-game averages, also from those short windows, flag one clash. Iona turns it over 17 times a game across four games. Hofstra has held opponents to 35.67% shooting across three.

What Are the Iona vs Hofstra Odds?

The moneyline is a bet on who wins outright. Hofstra is -275 at FanDuel: risk $100 to profit $36.36. The point spread is a bet on the margin. Iona +7.5 at -110 (Courtside) wins if Iona wins or loses by 7 or fewer. The total, combined points by both teams, is 136.5: Over -105 at theScore Bet, Under -106 at Courtside. Books bake in a fee called the vig. Remove it and the market reads Hofstra 73.2%, Iona 26.8%. These are the best prices across the books we track, and shopping is the edge.

Where the Value Is

Expected value is what a bet returns on average if you made it many times. Against the market's no-vig read, almost everything here loses. Hofstra's moneyline averages minus $0.23. The Over is minus $2.38, the Under minus $2.83. One ticket clears the bar.

The Pick

The price is the reason. It is the only spot on this board where the payout beats the market's own read. The turnover and shooting numbers are early-season notes, not the foundation. The long flight home from Tempe is the risk we accept.

The Prediction

Our Hofstra vs Iona prediction: Hofstra 72, Iona 63. That nine-point margin clears the 7.5. The score adds to 135, just under the 136.5 total, though we have no play on the total. This is a thin lean at one specific price, nothing more. That is the read on this number; the Desk posts a documented free play on days like this, and it lands right below.
