don't get caught up on the correlation semantics (there is none) simple math tells you that for every 4 bets you'll win 1 and lose 3 thats -$230 every 4 wagers.

This does not apply to Viejodinosaur who is the exeption to the mathematical probabilities that govern the rest of us mortals. Viejo will make us all poor with his 1+1=3 approach. "Viejo prestame cinco dolares"

(Viejo lend me 5 bucks)

:cripwalk:

psst, both halves of SC/NCST were 33%+ and hit. not that two plays is enough to determine success, but it is a nice start to the season.

with standard $100 bets

total risk is $400, catch one, win $260 + the $100 returned= lose $40. This would be accurate for parlaying unrelated bets, like two different sides, and the picks are 50% type random plays

There is definite correlation with spreads over 30% of the total, and they will win much better than 25% of the time, thus books don't take them, or void them later if you win ( Sportsbook.com).

The plays aren't equally distributed in correlated parlays.

17.5 point spread, and 31.5 total for example.

It would be closer to this :

Dog and under... 35%
Fav and over ... 35%
Dog and over... 20%
Fav and under... 10%


The first two are profitable, you can blindly play both of them on the same game... if the book will take it, AND pay it.

Thank you Doug for bringing some elaboration of numbers here instead of insults and simple math.

I'm just saying it looks like they are all available but there are no first halfs available for SAT yet so not sure about that.

Side is 36% of total, why would this not be a good bet? :icon_conf

You guys would make the plays yourself on an account we can all see. Nothing else but the correlated plays no side action and I get the credit and settle every week. You guys settle weekly either way. In fact you guys can do it all just add in 200 each play for me. How much and many bucks would we need per play and overall credit per week do you think? I can update the halfs stuff tom.
