    What style? Value betting? Betting based on the number? Started in 2002, with some time off gaps in between. In other words, yeah, I know what works. And I know it has nothing to do with luck or with guesswork.

    Thanks for sharing your thoughts..And let's make it happen.. Good luck with your betting!! Cheers!!
    Alright man, track it all. Let us know your win percentage after the NCAA Tourney.

    Honestly, I don't know even know my win %. I don't really bet that way so I don't care. Sometimes I bet both sides. Sometimes I bet alts or ML or props. Anywhere I see value. Sometimes I'll grab +180 and can come back partial the other way at -160. Stuff like that.

    Went 8-4 today.. I believe if I play with Larger MARGIN of points, I could cut down on losses.. But there's always that Variance biting you occasionally.. But definitely this refined technique is working. I am spending much lesser time on my Model and don't check games after bets are placed. Can spare and spend good quality time with Family too.. Thanks..

    cool guy you had a couple of bad days. we all do and I thought I read you were working on a system. my advice don't give up so easily on a system you nerd a ton of pieces to properly evaluate. second, if you want to try again use your system but only play two or three gaemes. the games that seem the strongest.

    or paper play for a year or so.

    Thanks for your motivational words, Appreciate it. Indeed, it was a shocker to see 2-5 kind of result on two consecutive days, not happened in a long time. Taken a break, started looking for flaws in the system, not betting my real money until I am confident again. You are absolutely right, I will PAPER PLAY for a few more days and then see how it goes. Honestly, my system is good but sometimes I am unable to read between the numbers as I have included so many data ( at least 3-4 different ways) to arrive at my final number. Working on same.
    Thanks for not trolling as these forums are so full of negative and hapless minds but can't blame them for not winning as Guess work or Hypothesis don't work in betting. I still strongly believe that Betting has to be Data driven and Major leagues are not winnable in the long run especially NFL.
    Your message has definitely pumped in some positivity into me and I can't thank you enough to uplift my self-esteem.
    Will be in touch.. Cheers and as Always Good Luck and Happy Days !!..

    your words are powerful and it seems you know the ups and downs. I think you have a good chance at success. as you know now it is a very difficult game to beat. keep up research and let us know if you have some confidence in your revised system. don't forget a hitter fails 7 times out of 10, a sports bettor fails often also hopefully not 70% of the time.

    hang in.

    The NFL being this hyper efficient league is the most nonsense thing. If NFL lines move more than ~1 point between open and close, its beatable. All the major leagues are beatable. I haven't paid a cent in vig overall in MLB Moneylines in a few years. Literally looking at the odds page destroys this argument every day. You have to bet early.

    College sports are easier, yes.

    Can be a data driven approach, that's my way, but many people do ok with Pinny lean/chasing steam/jumping injuries.

    Stick with it. Keep good records, so you can go back and analyze next year. I like to start getting ready for a season a couple months ahead of time. Go back and look at what I bet, how did it go against the closing line. I look at, did I bet one team over and over again, try to figure out why. If it was good, then great. If it wasn't, what did I do wrong. So for example, this would be my process for baseball right now, after the super bowl.

    Thanks for your valuable insight!!.. If you can beat NFL market consistently over a period of time, you are GOD imo.. I know NFL is over hyped but at the same time lines are invariably very sharp where even books have no clue which way the game will go finally..
    You must be doing incredibly astonishing to beat that market with just 1 point of line variable.. Hats off !!
    I am fully focused on Data driven Capping..
    Good Luck !!
