#7182always worth half a unit and even more so on MNF. Rohan do you have any stats on MNF large dogs. I was very happy the Dragons scored but was waiting for the conversion to see if my under 40.5 was going to lose. The penny dropped and no conversion . The half time under bets are also good value , sometimes pays to spilt your bet in two .Comment -

#7183S22 - awesome call on Nightengale, I smashed that prop too. Always nice to get 100 metres plus from your player in the first half.
I had under 40 so feel moderately screwed at the push but I will take it.
Rohan - this is why this bet hardly ever works for most people. Even though I KNOW it's plus EV long term I couldn't pull the trigger on Dragons tonight. Shame Benny boy shame!Comment -

#7188Angelo,
Standby - I will have data for you shortly.
Dr.Gonzo - crunch the numbers before you say its not worth looking at. Believe me, blind betting underdogs IS worth looking at, today being a prime example. The other 2 things you mentioned are also definitely worth it, another trend I want to analyze is backing against a team that has just come off a big win, or an unexpected win (again, tonight would be a good example). I havent quite figured out how to do that in excel yet, but im getting there.
Standby for crunched numbers - just gotta update my spreadsheet for the last few rounds.Comment -

Keep posted I'm having a better look into the games I can already see a possible 3 or 4 plays I like! First game starts at 9am AEDT (9.5hrs from now)!

#7195Ok guys, I hope you guys find these stats useful.
The sample is every game of NRL played since Round 1, 2004 until the end of round 17, 2013 (1873 games)
These are "What would have happened if...." scenarios
1.
Bet on every underdog with odds greater than 2
Betsize $100
no of games 1873
no of bets 1764
no of wins 620
Strikerate 35.1%
Outlay $176,400
P/L $364
ROI 0.2%
2.
Bet on every underdog with odds greater than 3
Betsize $100
no of games 1873
no of bets 581
no of wins 156
Strikerate 26.9%
Outlay $58,100
P/L $5,094
ROI 8.8%
3.
Bet on every underdog with odds greater than 4
Betsize $100
no of games 1873
no of bets 240
no of wins 56
Strikerate 23.3%
Outlay $24,000
P/L $4,851
ROI 20.2%
4.
Bet on every underdog with odds greater than 5
Betsize $100
no of games 1873
no of bets 111
no of wins 23
Strikerate 20.7%
Outlay $11,100
P/L $2,674
ROI 24.1%
Result and Conclusion - Over the sample from 2004 - Midway through 2013, if you had have simply bet on the underdogs, you would have done slightly better than break even. Betting on BIG underdogs though gives a much more profitable result, as we can see by examples 3 and 4. We basically see a trend that the bigger the underdog, the less efficient the market is and the higher ROI is achieved.
The strikerate is obviously inversely proportional to the odds as they get bigger, so you can expect to go many many rounds without winning a bet - but the market definitely overcompensates for big favorites and you only need a couple of wins per season to come out well on top.
@ Angelo - I'm sorry I cant give you the exact stats you were looking for, as I have not recorded on what day of the week or time the games were played (although it would be very interesting comparing day games to night games). The problem is with MNF is that it only happens once per week - and its only been around the last few seasons. we haven't seen enough MNF to give us an adequate sample from which we could draw any meaningful conclusions, but my feeling is the MNF games would follow a similar trend to the rest (value with the underdogs)
If anyone wants similar stats, stats on any specific teams, stats on home ground advantages, average scores, or basically ANYTHING to do with NRL - just give me a yell in this thread or via PM - I've got all the data here (games/scores/odds), its just a matter of applying the appropriate filters, which generally is very easy. One thing that I have not been able to do yet is figure out a way to map out in excel the scenario of betting against the previous weeks big (or unexpected) winner. If any excel gurus want to collaborate with me on this just give me a shout.
Thanks Guys.

#7196Well I'm laying up at home with a busted leg and crutches for transport, so thought now would be the perfect time to update my spreadsheet.
Was a very solid w/e in both AFL & NRL despite missing out on the Sunday AFL games.
AFL - 4th winning w/e in a row now, bringing me back from the edge of disaster a month ago when I was about 13 units down on the season to the current situation where I am now back in the black and up 5.03 units on the year, about an 18 unit turnaround in a month. As I have said a hundred times AFL is my best sport and I remain confident the winning will continue from here. The turnaround has been built on my totals, having hit my last 8 AFL totals in a row now and 9 of the last 10. Unfortunately my betting strategy has an emphasis on lines betting over totals so my average total bet is inherently smaller than my average ATS bet.
+7.37 units on the round.
+5.03 units on the season.
NRL - Remain red hot in NRL, having posted winning rounds for the last 5 or 6 rounds in a row now and taking my season tally to +28.02 units. Would have been another exceptional w/e if not for the horrible beat on the Raiders play where they were professionally fouled in the last 5 minutes and should have been awarded a penalty try and then had a second chance to guarantee the push with Croker dropping a pass 5 metres from the line and with no defenders in front of him for a certain 6 pointer. Regardless was still a strong round finishing up 4.72 units.
+4.72 units on the round
+28.02 units on the season

#7204Pretty sure Nightengale is 4/4 on the overs for me, incredibly involved winger always. Goodwin was half asleep in the first half .. I really like him, think he is improved out of sight this year, thought with inglus out the backs will need to pick up more. I thought he was a good candidate being up against Cooper coming back from long lay off. Anyway.. Maybe I'm over thinking
It was such a good line I kept thinking it was a "trap", which stopped me from making it one my biggest player props of the year.
Nigtengale often comes in off his wing to take the 2nd or 3rd tackle, and ventures into the centre of the field quite a bit as well. He actively goes looking for the kicks and high balls, and makes 15+ runs a game, always giving him a good chance of breaking 120+. Interested to see what his line is set against Canberra, as I expect this to be an attacking game.
Player props have to be the most inefficient market in NRL, however I suspect you will get banned or limited at any book you bet big on them over a long enough period of time.Comment -

Cliffnotes - Bet on big underdogs
Like you alluded to, the scenarios I'd be very interested in are basically "week after" scenarios. A few in particular:
- A Top 8 team that gets beaten by more than 10 points (8 points? 6 points? Have to find the "sweet spot"), and their ATS result the next week. I don't blind bet this but it's my immediate filter when looking at the weeks games. Top teams rebounding combined with lines inflated/deflated by betting public only looking at their last results.
- A Bottom 8 team that causes an upset and their ATS result the next week. I bet a profitabe "system" in tennis like this, pretty much blind betting any player that has an unexpected "huge upset". This was a cash cow at the recent Wimbledon for example. Classic let down angle ...
- A home underdog of 4+ points, 6+ points ... which leads me to thinking what do the $3+ underdog results look like home vs away? Is there a more profitable angle with this filter or not?
I've worked a fair bit with Excel and have access to guys here at work who live and breath the stuff all day, so I could help crack any problem pretty quickly I'd say. Let's talk.Comment -

#7206Early soccer pick for tomorrow mornings UEFA Champions league qualifiers.
2 x Units - Nomme Kalju (Est) - HJK Helsinki (Fin) - Under 2.5 goals ($1.90 bet365)
Adding another play on the WTA tennis first round match at BAKU
2 x Units - O.Kalashnikova v T.Martincova - O.Kalashnikova win ($1.71 sportsbet)
Kalashnikova is the more experienced of the two ladies, she has a much better serve and is playing on her favorite surface (hard court). I think her experience, age, height, service, gives her a big mental and physical advantage over her opponent. The tournament being played in Azerbaijan is some very humid conditions and i cant see past Kalashnikova tonight.Comment -

#7207No - solid thinking. I simply looked at his recent results and it was a no brainer, 164 metres against Roosters (despite them LOSING 36-0), 134 against Penrith, 131 against NQ, 100 against Newcastle (in a super low scoring, grinding game), 145 against Canterbury, etc, etc.
It was such a good line I kept thinking it was a "trap", which stopped me from making it one my biggest player props of the year.
