    Leprechaun's 2011 MLB System

    Now that we're basically a third of the way through the season, I think there are enough stats to truly start a performance based system. I posted this system on a couple other forums last year...if you look around you'll find it.



    Here is a "short" breakdown of how the system will work:

    This system is based on how teams perform in a 2, 3, or 4 game series at home or on the road. Based on a rather complicated formula, we chose a team to win 1, 2, or 3 games in a given series. That means, if our team wins game A, we sometimes go for a second or even a third win in that same series. Also, this system does not chase to win just one unit per series. We use stats to predict our probability and unit size for each play. The plays are decided based on the matchups. This system is dynamic so there are no set teams to play on. As the season progresses, we collect team data that will put matchups in or out of the system. That means we don't always start betting on the first game of a series and we don't always chase after a team in a series if we lose the first game. As each day is completed and the results are processed, the factors that decide the plays for each team changes. I think this is the most important part of the system and one of the major reasons it has such great potential. You are relying on up to the minute data. The team to play on and if you play the road or home team, is completely dependent on the numbers. That means teams will move in and out of the system depending on 1)how good or bad they do, 2) how good or bad their opponent does, and 3) how good or bad the league does AS THE SEASON PROGRESSES.


    I don’t promise you’ll win a million units, but I do promise rock solid record keeping, a fun thread, and an interesting project to follow. Unlike many people here, I have no grandiose dreams of becoming a professional gambler and trying to make millions. This is more about my personal passion for sports and the challenge of trying to come up with a system that wins consistently. Hopefully we’ll make a few bucks along the way.


    Good luck

    For those not familiar, all lines can be found at betjam. I often play favorites on the o/n line which can be a dime or a quarter better sometimes. Sometimes I'll get them posted the night before, but often they won't be posted until morning. Just an FYI. Lets start the season off right!

    Wow, rough start out the gate. Annoying but that's life in the gambling world. I'm always reminded...it's just as hard to go 0-4 as it is to go 4-0! The gambling gods do not like the first posted week of any system. We will take it very easy here but when we go on a run we'll get aggressive. Anyone who followed this system last year knows that I keep plugging along through thick and thin. No matter what happens, I'll carry this thread to the all star break at least. We'll reevaluate at that point. Lots of plays on the board today so let's get a few W's and turn this in the right direction.

    Not meaning this in a bad way, but if this continues in a negative way it could possibly be a good fade system too. Good luck.

    Haha...only been a couple days, but it's certainly looking like fade material so far. If you find my thread from last year on another forum, you'll see that this same thing happened in the beginning...and then 4 weeks later the system was up 40 units. It's a grind so I'll stick with this through the all star break no matter what. So many people post systems and then quit after one or two bad days. That's not my style. We'll chug along here and see how it goes.

    Another bad day for this system. Almost 10 units lost in 2 days. Let's get another week under our belts before we start to worry...but I'm not happy with the last couple days. This same thing happened last year...got down about 25 units right away and then rattled off 60 units in 4 weeks. I don't want those type of swings this season. Let's cut these losses in half before the weekend is over and move on.

    This is getting downright painful. This system relies heavily on stats...Cleveland was blazing hot for the 1st third of the season at home with a league leading 3 sweeps. Now they are about to get swept in a 4 game series at home(which hasn't happened in over 3 years) by Texas that was a bottom 5 road team just one week ago. I'll be happy to end today and get to a new week. We keep going...but this system is looking dead before it even got going. Maybe I'll start fading it.

    I´ve never followed a system in my life, nor have I come across a working one. But I still find the idea of inventing/creating a system interesting. I know that losing money like this must be totally discouraging, but it´s still a very small sample... you should definitely keep it going at least one more week or two. If it keeps losing, then start fading it. Although I´m sure that once you start fading it, it will work out just fine GL!

    Yeah, I'll still keep going for sure. As I said in the beginning...I like the challenge...love crunching numbers, love the analysis. I keep my unit size pretty small early and increase it as the season progresses or during hot streaks so it hasn't cost me much in losses. I don't care about the money lost...it's much more annoying to see the system failing. As you said, it's a small sample size so far so it doesn't really mean anything.

    In 2009 I won over a 100 units with a skeleton version of what this system is now. Makes me think simpler is better. I haven't had a losing MLB season since I started using systems in 2006...I don't expect this year to be any different, but I got my work cut out for me. In the interest of full disclosure, I do make plays that have nothing to do with the system pretty often.

    Tragic end to a weekend I'd rather forget. As I said, we'll keep plugging along. Maybe we can find some spots to get slightly aggressive and get some back. I plan to look at some of the stats used for this system and run more simulations today. Hopefully we'll make some corrections. This looks like a total fade so far despite how well using the same parameters would have worked in previous seasons. I'm curious to see how things go over the next few days. No positive days so far. I'm not happy to see Cleveland coming up again...just barely passed the filter because Minnesota is a bottom 5 road team. New week and new series.

    Hit the two stronger plays...lost the rest. Red Sox should have been a 2 unit play, but since the system has been doing so poorly, I've been trying to stay more conservative. We really need a good run on the next set of series if this system has any chance of surviving. We have a few RL plays today but it's one of the stronger sets of plays we've had in the past week since we started.

    Another winning day which is great to see. Just a note if you didn't follow last year...a play is on a team and sometimes we split the play between the ML and the RL. For record keeping, I alternate between counting a split as a win or a loss. We'll start off counting this split as a loss. It doesn't really matter that much in the end as there won't be that many splits, but just in case anybody is wondering. If the team loses outright, it counts as one loss, and if they win by 2 or more it counts as one win.

    I'm on the move today and will be away for the weekend (actually headed to Vegas!) but I'll try to post each day. I know that nobody really cares but I don't want anybody to think I gave up if I can't post for some reason. I'll look for a spot or two to get aggressive in the next round of series. I'd love to cut this to -10 units by Monday. Just need one decent day to get us close!

    This has been a very good week for the system and much more what we expect to see...winning around 10 units per week. If we can finish the week well and put one more together, we aren't far from being in the black. I'd be fine with that, but let's not get too excited about a few good days...just like we didn't let a few bad days ruin us last weekend. It's a good lesson in patience.

    ***Notes***


    An inconsequential ending to the week, but a good week for the system, ending at +8.64 units. There are no plays today so let me throw out a few thoughts on this system (and really any other system out there). There was a forgotten lesson from last year that I cost us big over the first weekend: numbers and stats point you in the right direction, but there is a human element to any system that cannot be forgotten. A computer doesn't recognize certain elements of the game, no matter how many formulas you come up with. More importantly, when using statistics, there are always going to be outliers. Cleveland came out so strong early in the season that they became an extreme statistical outlier (especially when playing at home). Had I looked a little harder at the numbers like I was when the system was clicking last year, I would have easily recognized this problem before dumping 5.54 units on them (the account for HALF the losses of this system). The same thing now goes for the Red Sox...the last 5 weeks they have been a major statistical outlier...that means we have to be careful with them. I had noticed that on Friday and written them down on a separate sheet...that's why I forgot to post them as a play. We have to be very careful with outliers. Following a system to a tee will never work...situational analysis must be applied for success. Hopefully we'll be back tomorrow with a couple plays. Enjoy the day off.

    Sorry for the strangely formatted post...I'm using my phone as SBR is blocked at my company.

    Looks like a pretty light day for units wagered . It 's a weird matchup week I guess because the system just isn' t giving us very much . The strength behind all these plays is pretty low . Red Sox would be stronger but they are an outlier as I said yesterday. Let' s hope we can pick up a unit or so anyway.

    Didn't quite work out as we hoped with two late losses at Arizona and Dodgers. No big deal since we played everything small, but we need to start chipping away at this deficit. We have just a few plays today again. I'll probably be parlaying these in some combination on the side just for kicks, but the official plays are what's listed above. Let's hope for a sweep today to get some momentum going.

    Well, we got 2 of 3 for a positive day. That's good but we're down slightly for the week after a bunch of very low strength small plays. Nice to see the Red Sox get the win yesterday. They have been treating everybody well. Speaking of Boston, do you realize they have won championships in all four major sports in just a 6 year span!!?? No way that's ever happened.

    Just barely missed a huge night. No worries...ended in the positive for the day and we are no up just a little for the week. This system generally does extremely well during interleague so it could start a run for us. To be honest, I was hoping there would be more plays today but we can't force it. There still hasn't been any good opportunities to get aggressive. Gotta stay patient. btw...I hate this yankees play today, but we stick with the system. Just a heads up...I'm headed out on a camping trip for the weekend. It looks like we won't be too far from civilization so I should still be able to post, but I make no promises. Life always comes before sports and gambling. Enjoy the weekend!

    ***Notes***

    Sorry, I didn't have a chance to post on Sunday. Too bad, because the system had two more winners in the Dodgers and Atlanta. Would have been nice to add those units to our total but for obvious reasons we don't count unposted plays after the fact. On the upside, we had a great Saturday with the Dodgers being the only blemish. It also solidified our second straight week in the positive (about +2.6 units) and now being in the black by the end of this week is a real possibility. We got crushed early but we are crawling forward just fine. One or two weeks cannot make a system. You have to keep grinding it out.

    For today, again, the system is giving us nothing strong. Cleveland comes up again, just barely, partly because they have quietly won 5 of their last 7. Red Sox are facing one of the weakest teams in the league. We tread lightly on these plays and don't force it. Let's see if we can pick up a unit today.

    I must admit this was the first day I have been a little upset about the lack of production of the system. I felt like we were fighting our way back pretty steadily and this was the first decent set back in 10 days or so. I feel like I'm getting beat down from all angles. I don't normally get personal in this space...but your friendly neighborhood Leprechaun is having a hard time keeping his spirits up. I lost a good friend to cancer on Sunday. Makes all this gambling and everything else seem sort of pointless. I'll keep the train going. Back to normal tomorrow, I promise. Believe it or not, it's somewhat therapeutic to admit you're hurting a little. In a strange way, it's easier to do it behind the impersonal wall of these forums than it is to confront the folks I see everyday. Tomorrow will be a better day. R.I.P. EH. Hope you found my pot of gold on the other side.

    Good day for the system...erased the weeks losses more or less. Got a little greedy on Boston, but glad we stayed small. They've been very good to us. Despite the struggles of the system this year, playing the RL has saved us big on losses. That's the one major positive so far. I'm still looking to see if there are spots where we can get more aggressive. I prefer to do that on the first game of a series if possible but we have not been winning those at near the clip we were last year. Short schedule today and we have no plays. Good to have a day off...I need it. Back on Friday.

    Well, here we go with a huge slate today. Many of these are very strong plays, but since the system is down, we keep our max risk at about 2.0-2.5 units for the first game in the series. We saw this situation many times last year and it means either Friday or Saturday will be a big day. No matter what, when it comes to units, we manage all these games together with an aim of coming out with at least 5 units of profit by Sunday. A decent day today will make that easy. Hold on to your hats!

    Can't complain too much. If not for a painful error in the Royals game in the top of the 9th, we may have been in better shape. The Yankees loss puts them right on the line for falling out of the system but we'll stick with it. Still gotta wait for the dust to settle, but for now I'm happy to have a plus unit day. Let's see if Saturday will bring more luck our way.

    Another very successful day for the system. We protect our profits for the week and back off today. Red Sox should be a 2.5 unit play today but they are in a batting funk so I decided to drop it down to one unit. At the same time, we'll tie half our Boston wager into a parlay with Atlanta, which was also a play. Limits our exposure for the day...only way we can lose anything today is if the Red Sox lose. Protecting the profit is the key. Anytime you are up for the week, that's a good thing. Enjoy your Sunday.

    In hindsight, we were probably a little too conservative yesterday, but in the grand scheme, no big deal. My focus is always on protecting profits and personally, I think it's more important in some situations than creating gains. In the last 3 weeks we've picked up over 15 units, which is great considering where this system started out. I'd like to write up a little summary if I get the time today. We have a short schedule and just 2 games to play. I'll also play Detroit on the RL today...they missed being a system play because of the line being too high. If they lose, they will be a play tomorrow for sure. Last year, I would talk often about the system leans that were on the board, I'll start doing that more often going forward on days where I have a few extra minutes. Hope the week starts great for everybody.

    Well, how's that for symmetry. Two days in a row of the exact same record and exactly 0 units won. I won my non sys play on Detroit at least. I didn't realize that was a make up game, but it doesn't matter. We play matchups in this system, not series. Cleveland continues to kill this system, losing when we play on them and winning when we're against them. They've probably cost us 10 units this season by now. An Arizona win today will put us right on our way to being in the positive again.
