#144lol p07... i agree that those were pretty ridiculous... could've been a good night if not for those two insane 4th quarters, instead the model went 7-7 again.. owell.
ive made up my mind that i'm going to try not to complain about games anymore. i think it will all even out in the long run, as i will win some i shouldn't and lose some i shouldn't.Comment -

#145--------------------
REALLY aggravated at this point... how the #$@% can New Orleans/Minnesota not score more than 32 points in the 4th quarter when the game is almost garaunteed to go over. And the bulls played the most unmotivated basketball ive ever seen.. fvcking joke. atleast san antonio eeked out a push, that was nice.
I think im going to re-evaluate after tonight. not sure what im going to do but i know i feel like scrapping this thing. just not getting the results i wanted.
One of the major problems is watching the games. That will frustrate you no end. I do much better when I simply look at the scores after the games are over. Plus, minus, minus, plus, plus plus. +5 -4. Ho-hum. The results are the results without the damning aggravation. [When you have the over there is nothing worse than some clown throwing up an airball or missing a free-throw. It's like tiny arrows being shot through your heart, but if you don't watch the games you won't be bothered by that. It's just a plus or a minus.]
Also keep in mind that you're gambling. In the gambling business there is fluctuation. You will lose for a while and win for a while, but you're working toward that 55-57% long term win-rate. Nobody, over time, really does much better than that. But 55-57 is enough to be profitable, and if you can do better then it's all gravy.
My advice would be to stick with it for a while and reduce your aggravation as much as possible. You're gonna have some horrible beats and some down swings no matter who you are or how you handicap.
Give it some time. You don't have to bet real money. You can bet your points at the SBR book instead.Comment -

#146you are definately right about watching the game goat... especially a game as bad as the bulls game.
“Never cut a tree down in the wintertime. Never make a negative decision in the low time. Never make your most important decisions when you are in your worst moods. Wait. Be patient. The storm will pass. The spring will come.”
i am using this as my quote for the day...
sooooooo i added the "playing on back to back days" adjustment and am running some mock simulations (using the same team) right now to make sure everything looks OK.. it wont have an effect on the totals (and to be honest im not totally sure it shouldn't), as they seem to be doing OK. the team playing back to back will be handicapped but not paralyzed, and i think the adjustment is fair.
there are only 3 games on the schedule tomorrow so right after i get done testing i will run those and get them up....Comment -

#152wow detroit line opened at 7.. running that game again with current lines and will have it up in about 10 minutes
also... tonights line movements vs sim are:
denver/detroit (no movement side/total)
boston/washington (side didn't move, total went toward sim (193-->195))
orlando/utah (side went toward sim (3-->2.5), total went toward sim (203-->202))Comment -

#153TGoat do you mean the wins/losses will balance over time or the lines moving toward/away will balance over time?
i think the lines will usually move towards the sim (yesterday was the first day it was almost even).Comment -

this new line changes the denver play to a detroit play and changes the total from a no play to an OVER play... GLComment -

Personally, and this is just another guess, I don't think it is going to be meaningful if the majority of moves are one way or the other. I fail to see at this point what can be drawn from that.
Good call on the Den/Over. By the way, where did you come up with the early line of Denver -4? I have the opening line at Denver -7 and the closing line at Denver -7.5.Comment -

#16112/10 Summary:
Side plays:
Detroit +7
Boston -7.5
Utah +3
O/U plays:
Denver/Detroit Over 198
Boston/Washington Over 193
Orlando/Utah Under 203
------------------
3-1 so far on the night.. but utah looks like they are starting where they left off last night and orlando might score 200 points.
The bigger the difference the higher the win rate. So far after 74 games a difference of 9 or more points yields a 61% win rate.Comment -

#162tgoat... that denver line was just an uneducated guess of my own, no basis whatsoever.. i just thought it would be close.
as for the meaning behind line moves vs simulation lines... im not sure what (if anything) will be drawn from it but it may be something of value.Comment -

[I should add that I was all over the map with my selections, picking sides and totals and whatnot. It was originally designed for totals only and has proved effective sticking with that intention.]
Reboarding means saying you would have had team x, but it is after the game has started or after the game has completed. So if team x wins and after the fact you say, "I would have had that, no problem." That's a redboard.Comment -

#169since alot of the time i run my simulation at night while im sleeping and the lines move by the time i post the results... i wanted to figure out the effect of a line moving on the simulation percentages. so i ran 4 separate simulations (1000 each) on the same game, moving the spread and total .5 points up each time.
results:
Denver @ Detroit (7) 203
Average Score: Denver 105 - Detroit 99 (sim line: Den -6, 204)
Outright wins: Denver 643 - Detroit 325
ATS wins: Denver 461 - Detroit 516 (Detroit 52.8%)
O/U: Over 495 - Under 477 (Over 50.9%)
Denver @ Detroit (7.5) 203.5
Average Score: Denver 105 - Detroit 99 (sim line: Den -6, 204)
Outright wins: Denver 646 - Detroit 328
ATS wins: Denver 464 - Detroit 536 (Detroit 53.6%)
O/U: Over 489 - Under 511 (Under 51.1%)
Denver @ Detroit (8) 204
Average Score: Denver 105 - Detroit 99 (sim line: Den -6, 204)
Outright wins: Denver 640 - Detroit 330
ATS wins: Denver 433 - Detroit 545 (Detroit 55.7%)
O/U: Over 478 - Under 492 (Under 50.7%)
Denver @ Detroit (8.5) 204.5
Average Score: Denver 105 - Detroit 99 (sim line: Den -6, 204)
Outright wins: Denver 644 - Detroit 331
ATS wins: Denver 424 - Detroit 576 (Detroit 57.6%)
O/U: Over 484 - Under 516 (Under 51.6%)
------------------
as you can see, the spread percentage went up at an average of 1.2% for every 1/2 point of line movement..
the percentages of the totals, on the other hand moved on average about 0.6% for ever 1/2 point of line movement..
however, i consider the results somewhat inconclusive and think i need a larger sample size to get more accurate and reliable results. honestly.. i think that the spread percentage probably moves at a rate of about 1.5% per 1/2 point and the totals probably move at a rate of about half that.
either way, it should give you guys an idea of how the simulation percentages vary depending on the line movements... hope this helps when trying to figure out if a line is still good enough to bet on around gametime.
im running tomorrows games now and they will be up tomorrow probably around 2:30 EST..Comment -
