Thanks Buddha, I'll check that out. Stupid Prick contest. I had two huge plays, NYG and CLE, but he took them both, so I played a few totals that I didn't want to, and it burned me.

At the moment ML results are much above average, so either a correction or several games with total gain ~ 0 is expected.
For Totals the expectation is exactly the opposite.
So, I would suggest those tailing the picks to play both ML and Totals.
This under condition that the testing calculation and numbers were correct.
I had two huge plays, NYG and CLE, but he took them both, so I played a few totals that I didn't want to, and it burned me.
Yeah, I feel you on that. Its hard enough to cap 5 ATS winners in a week without some Prick cokklblokkin' 2 of those, I don't know how it is the rules and all but really theres no reason a 79th place Prick shouldn't be required to have his picks in as soon after lines are up as possible cuz anything other doesn't add anything positive to this contest in this the stretch run, only does the opposite, interjects superhuge DEEP MINUS EV to a contest where you and many others have already Beaten The Prick and all thats left is to beat one another.
Within the final NFL weeks SBR would amplify the excitement and interest in this contest by revealing which games are off the board asap so leaders could have more time to isolate their plays and the contest made to be as much about 'capping skill at CrunchTime as possible.
Plannin' Cleveland as one your 5 plays shows you're in a great place 'cappin'-wise, far from Squaresville, Oakland call the same, sharp, shrewd, brave under these circumstances.
This weeks card should present opportunity to make up some ground as will the final 2 weeks of the season. However you wind up 43-26-1 62% to this point is great and to be in the upper precentile area you are vs. field of 1400 initial entrants, 900 left after the purging of the freeloaders is fantastic.
Some will say I should have kept quiet lest I "jinx" you but that fantastical crap weighed against the potential value of encouragement, the extra little possible bump up to your focus I felt could be gained...I hoped that would outweigh whatever mystical otherworldy superstitious bullshite folks entertain thought of and I hope that you agree or at least will empathize with why I posted.

Are they treating autofade Buffalo as a night off? These teams? A mid-stride "nap" of sorts?

Maybe get off the Buffalo fade & start taking home dogs against the spread. They are 78-34.

Oh Lord help me. I've only ever bet NFL, College Football to a lesser degree and...Postseason Baseball. I assume you're still talkin' about Hockey with your post when I ask what "against the spread" means? No way it means puckline +1.5 eh? I know what it means in football of course but've never heard this term used in regards to Hockey.

Remember, on a two day slide for teams, but they will get there. I'm not picking teams out of a hat or by gut feeling. These systems will succeed: OVER THE SEASON, not over a week. There's four months left. Good luck.

2-0 with third game with two goal lead, hopefully 3-0 on teams
sabres winning while being consistently outshot 40-15, if anyone can figure out a system to bet that, you are god

I counted the over as a loss after the first period on Winnipeg game. That was a nice scoring spree last two periods.

started off that way, but I believe the charts posted show the ML were more profitable. That's why I took that direction. Didn't want to be juicing +1.5

I have a quick question. Does your model take into account injuries? That's a lot of juice to pay for a Crosby-less Pens team tonight...

Yes, sometimes. We are identifying the team that is most likely to win, even if it costs a high price sometimes. With the NHL, you've got to lay the chalk since it's all about the ML's. If you go to page 1, you will see the PLs do well and you can play those.
