How to read the board

Badge

Leader count

Each Nx badge is the number of Covers contest leaders, taken from the top of each sport's leaderboard, with a pending pick on that side today. 0x means no leader is on it and only the public split is shown.

Gold bar

Public split

Public 62% of 310 means 62 percent of all Covers contest entries on that game sit on this side, out of 310 entries. It is a separate number and is never added into the badge.

Context

What it is not

Contest entrants are not verified professionals, and agreement is not an edge by itself. Check the price you can actually get: the implied probability and vig calculators do the arithmetic.

Previous boards are in the calendar and the archive. How the count works, and why it was paused from July to September 2026, is on the method page.
