I have been refining a steam chasing method over the past few months in NFL, NCAAF, NBA, and NCAAB. My current record is 100-77. Based on the fundamentals of the system, and a 100-77 record, I am considering increasing my bet sizes significantly. I have two questions:
1) Is this sample size big enough to rely upon? How do I know if I am just getting lucky over a short period of time, or if I have really figured out a winning method?
2) I have been able to create subsets for my plays, one particular subset has hit at exactly 60%, the others hit around 54% and 56%. Can I use a Kelly calculator to determine my bet size on the various subsets, using 60% probability for my highest subset?
Obviously I am nervous to start risking big money on a steam chasing system, but if I can maintain these percentages I would love to make some decent money for my effort. Any advice is appreciated.
