I am such a stats junkie (How I've been doing so far)

[JohnAnthony]

I know the sample size is meaningless, but I found these stats interesting:

• After 104 NBA plays (excluding live betting) - I am hitting over 61%.

• After 87 Soccer plays (excluding live betting) - I am hitting a little over 54%.

• A miniature sample size of 18 LIVE BETS shows I should probably STOP doing it - 27%.

• After 282 straight wagers (excluding TEASERS (1) and PARLAYS (3) and including live betting) I am hitting JUST under 55% (54.96%)

• Average price for ALL straight wagers: -107.

ALL THESE BETS HAVE BEEN TRACKED IN EITHER OF MY (2) THREADS FOR PICKS (ONLY ONE ACTIVE)

Two notes:

1. Poker veterans usually bring a rookie who just won a huge tourney or pot back to earth by asking "but how much are you down lifetime?" - before you ask I'm going to say this: a lot. But nothing I cannot regain if I can do as nearly as good as I'm doing now.

2. Look for these stats to start averaging down, especially after this thread has been made

I guess you are referring to Asian handicap for the soccer? The pure MLs don't say anything %-wise.

gw on NBA.

[G's pks]

JA being up is all that matters. I bet a few games a week and usually each week is an up week at the end. Are you up or down all together?

[JohnAnthony]

Thanks for the kind words gentlemen let's hope I didn't just jinx myself now

I guess you are referring to Asian handicap for the soccer? The pure MLs don't say anything %-wise. gw on NBA.

Hmmm..what's the difference between X ML and X (-0.5)? I guess none. Can someone elaborate on Jaug's statement?

[JohnAnthony]

Jaug did you mean (pk) lines?

I'm still looking for an answer on this:

Looks like your doing quite well John Anthony. Looks like you do better when you're not in the thick of it. Have you thought about doing a fade on your live betting? Hope your success with your NBA and Soccer continues....you're doing something right

That is absolutely right Extra Innings.

About live betting: I will try to be as cautious as possible with live betting, as it does seem very unprofitable. I am 3-1 in live betting since posting these stats, so I realize just like all of the other stats - the sample size is pretty small and I will have to continue pounding stuff I like, just with extra caution.

Thanks for your compliments!

Don't let it go to your head. You're doing what you're suppose to be doing; winning.
