I had the Astros thanks to bignick's earlier query, winning on a dog with those odds is like hitting the lotto...wow.

Passed on the Nationals game despite it being in the same div (which is stronger for ROI), just didn't like it.

Mako you have any good ones to throw out?

Yovani Gallardo is due to take the mound for the Brew Crew this Saturday at home, as is Edinson Volquez... The result has always been a slugfest when these two match-up;
starter=Edinson Volquez and o:starter=Yovani Gallardo

I'd interested in seeing what the line is going to be now that Volquez is with the Padres.

check out this overfit:

thoughts?

I have a version of this April dog. One can't argue with the results.

Nice find guys....one caveat....with a very small sample size, the non-conference part of this is 0-5, which in the Mets game. Best of luck.

Greetings. Brand new here and new to SDQL queries too, though I know about killer sports and have salivated at the prospect of being able to mine that data. Going to just lurk and hope I catch on by osmosis. Will take advice from later in this thread to look more closely at the tutorial.

However, 1) not sure the tutorial in how to make a query then tells how to read the output from a successful query. It's not self-explanatory, that I can see. And, 2) for instance figue's "and D and", D is not defined in the cheat notes at bottom of killersports MLB SDQL query page. Is D a shorter alternate for "DAY"? that was the closest thing I can find.

Thanks a million. Seems like you all are cool and doing great stuff.

letter short cuts
Single letter short cuts are great because
you can easily combine them and you
only need to specify the prefix once. H,
A, W, L, F, D, O, U, C, X are allowed
short cuts for
home,away,win,loss,favorite,dog,over the
total,under the total, a same-conference
game, and extra innings. As with the
parameter prefixes, these can be strung
together without limit.

This is NOT a play, rather way to show how I work with sdql in MLB. We all know we look for predictive value in sdql, but I also look for past results that have exact or similar circumstances with the present.

series game=1 and p:W and op:L and AD and conference=o:conference and team=Rockies and o:team=Giants

look at the line, the total and pitchers (past and present).

Yea I'm not the advocating blindly betting on something just cause u may have found a query but I didn't play TEX ending up adding SF and SEA though other then those my card is pretty light tonight

[JMon]

Not going to mess around with this situation as it's hit year after year. I'll ask BN to explain it as I am due on time. BBQ to do. Rather easy to do and one of my prize collections. Just look how Clev does in this situations, most importantly against the south siders and the ol' mighty Sale...

Very nice start for all us sdql users for sure . I have made more money in NBA and the start of MBL than I have ever have.

Be diligent, going forward is the key!!! I can not stress money management and flat betting enough.

I foudn this idea on another forum. can someone query this?

Look at last 10 games of MLB teams, add up the total runs that each team has gone Over (add 1) and Under (subtract 1) the game book line total, and play OVER on games where the total of both teams totals are 40 runs over the book lines, and each team is at least at +10 over the book lines.

Hi everyone! I've read through both this thread and the NBA SDQL one over the last week, and have successfully had 6 positive days in a row. Just wanted to express my gratitude to everyone who's contributed to both threads, and hopefully add something of my own.

I like to use the queries as a baseline and then filter them based on my own capping, and I was looking at the Tigers/Padres matchup earlier when I started wondering if NL teams might be undervalued when facing AL teams at home since they are used to not having a DH. A few refinements later, I came up with this query:

league=NL and o:league=AL and H and oA(runs)>tA(runs) and STDSERA<=4 and D and month!=(7 or 8) and o:STDSERA<=4

The logic is that NL teams are undervalued at home against AL teams, especially when both teams have good starters on the mound. I cut out July and August since they are generally better for favorites, and the results look pretty good. Good luck!

Oh, btw, the Reds/Rays game from earlier today was a win also, although of course 1 game won't change the stats that much.

i m looking the days when there are 2 o more games on the same day with -200 favorites,any sdql for that ??..thanks.

not sure what you are completely after fig, but line<=-200 will get you favs of 200 or more and you can use the parameter 'day' to see where they hit the best.

question, if you see adverse wind conditions on a particular total, say the trend calls for an over when the wind is blowing in at a particular stadium.....would you consider it a no play ???? thanks

I guess it depends on how well the situation had done in the past with a similar wind conditions. It appears to be more of a personal preference regarding a play or not.
