Researching one player

The offers workspace, the research trace, head to head history and its scope, and what game history exists per sport.

The player page holds one player and varies the offer. The prop page holds one offer and goes deep on it. Both are reached from any row on the board, and both carry the offer you came from in the link.

The offers workspace

Every posted offer for the player sits in one scrolling table: market, book, product, side and line, with the recommendation beside it. Selecting a row re-points the rest of the page at that offer. Markets the apps have not posted today appear as an unposted catalog rather than disappearing, so you can see what is missing.

The research trace

The trace is the player's recorded games for the market you are looking at, classified exactly as the grader would settle them. A value on the line is a push, a game the player did not appear in is a void, and neither counts in a hit rate. Window tiles only print a number when the sample supports it.

Head to head, and its scope

Head to head covers every recorded meeting with today's opponent, not the last few weeks, with a season control if you want a narrower view. The panel states its own scope, including the earliest and latest dates on record, so a crawl window can never read as a career. A meeting whose settling stat the source does not carry is listed with its date and excluded from the rate rather than quietly dropped.

Game history differs by sport

Recorded history exists where the product writes it: baseball game logs, basketball and tennis event history, football weekly stats and snaps, and soccer match sheets. Where a sport has no store yet, the page says history is not wired rather than synthesizing a trace. Where a market is new, older rows may read unavailable until the store is rewritten.

Keeping what you found

A watched player is a standing interest and does not retire on its own. A watched prop is an offer on one game and closes when that game starts, as does a Slip Lab leg, because the apps lock picks at the same moment.
