    Today was a fine day. Arrived barely on time to take Oklahoma, placed on Pinny +102 when saw Matchbook was worse (538line -118). But forgot to check yisman daily specials thread, where he offered it 5 cents better. Anyway, cannot complain on a $162 win. On the other game got filled at matchbook on Kansas -124 (538line -141). Lost $118 on it. A $44 win for the day.

    Tomorrow 538 sees no value on Notre Dame-UNC, but NDame may become micro value if lines keep climbing (fair +470). On the other game it likes Syracuse, as market is +328 and 538line is +226.

    Another great day. The line on Syracuse kept climbing away from fair +226, so I placed more at better prices. First I placed $25 at +360 on Sportsbetting (Betonline clone), as I needed that bet to be eligible for bracket contest prizes (very likely to finish 2nd for $2500 if Virginia wins it all). Another $25 at +380 on 5dimes reduced. An last was filled at +392 for $131. Total $697 profit. On Notre Dame I placed small $24 at +515 on Matchbook (fair +470). Currently +$2209 for tournament.

    For next games, 538 gives OK +119, currently very small value. And loves once again Syracuse as +236 fair line, while market will likely be over +400.

    Quick update, lost $100 on Oklahoma, got bought at +138 net at matchbook. Lost $175 on Syracuse at about +455 at two books. Still very good tournament. Line for final should be about Villanova +117, so I likely will place small on them, as currently is +130.

    Results were impressive, but I am still not convinced that 538 model is so much better than market. Will do again next year.

    Cool thread. But I do take issue with you saying you aren't convinced 538 model not much better than market? Nothing will ever be "so much better", but you what, doubled your bankroll in less than a month purely off their plays? Pretty incredible.
