Dickhertz, thats the result of my math calculations when all data is entered. I have written a scrap program in VB to handle the system.

I will begin classifying the bets that include draws with +0.5.


England - League Two
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 2ND
Luton Town v Afc Bournemouth, 33%, 35%, 32%, Play: Bournemouth +0.5 -143, 1 UNIT
Wycombe Wanderers v Macclesfield Town, 46%, 40%, 14%, Play: Draw +255, 2 UNIT

kanynem, it's safe to assume unit size is based on the differential b/w odds and percentage. example from today's matches:

wycombe 40% draw = odds of +155 and he is betting odds of +255 (100 pt differential). = bigger bet

Bournemouth +1/2 67% (draw + away) = -200 and he has -143 (57 pt differential) = smaller bet

how do you determine the unit size sekrah?

kaynem.. The percentage of our edge.

6-10% edge = 1 unit.
10-15% edge = 2 unit.
15%+ edge = 3 unit.

-143 is 58.8%. The combined probability of Bournemouth winning (32%) and the draw (35%) is 67%. 8.2% edge. 1 unit play.

+255 is 28.1%. The Wycombe/Maccelsfield Draw probability is 40%. 11.9% edge. 2 unit play.


Iceman, what book has +528 for the draw?!

The average winning bet is +223. If that is the average winner, you only need to hit 31% to break even on flat units. We'll be hitting at a 35%+ clip all year and rake it in! :103631605

For those that are following this thread..

I am working on a similar model for college hoops. I'm doing up some games right now.. I haven't done any real backtesting on it. It's just in beta, but picks for tonight will be posted in the college hoops forum in about an hour or so.

Sekrah I have a line at Matchbook Bayern to win NO +141.If I do the calculation +141 which is 41.5% vs 54%draw and away for Hoffenheim.So this is 12.5 advantage for a 2 unit play.Is that correct?

Yes.. Great line you got there.. That would be a 2 unit play. I have too much trouble getting money onto Matchbook from the US.:ohno:

I'm about freaking sick of these late goals burying us.

Atleast 4 or 5 have buried us. NONE have helped us from what I can remember.

I KNOWWWWWWWWWWW
Man, i've been following on most of your bets, and without a doubt you (and thanks to you, me) are doing quite good.

These late goals are horrible (i mean bayern scoring one on min 91 ish when the ref added 2 mins extra time)
Anyways, keep posting your predictions, as i really appreciate them

Also, let me know when you post your bball lines too
best of luck
