Game Theory & Behavioral Finance for Sports Betting & Markets

By Hayden Van Der Post

The smartest players never play the game… they play the player.

In this powerful synthesis of strategy and psychology, Hayden Van Der Post merges Wall Street and the sportsbook into one ruthless arena. Whether you're analyzing market sentiment or reading the betting line, the same forces are at play, incentives, deception, pattern exploitation, and psychological edge.

This is not a beginner’s guide. This is the mental model playbook for sharp bettors, algorithmic traders, and behavioral finance professionals who want to weaponize game theory and cognitive bias mapping to dominate asymmetric systems.

Inside, You’ll Learn:

• Game Theory in Real Life: Prisoner’s dilemma, Nash equilibrium, and dominant strategy, all applied to bets, markets, and human behavior.

• Cognitive Biases That Kill Profit: Learn how herd behavior, loss aversion, and recency bias distort odds, and how to exploit them.

• Market + Sports Betting Crossovers: How options trading mirrors prop betting, and what traders can learn from Vegas oddsmakers.

• Quantitative Strategy Meets Psychology: Frame bets and trades using payoff matrices, expected value, and adversarial modeling.

• How to Think Like a Bookmaker: Discover why the house always wins, and how to flip the script.

Built For:

• Quant traders seeking behavioral alpha

• Bettors building long-term sustainable edge

• Data scientists & sports modelers adding psychological factors

• Finance professionals looking for next-level insight into decision-making under uncertainty

The best decisions aren’t made on instinct, they’re modeled, gamed, and psychologically engineered.
This book shows you how.
