    Bigdaddy almost never reads (or understands) threads, he just posts. Think nothing of it.

    No beef QH, but let's be realistic.

    Ignore Bigdaddy, and anybody else, who says that you can't be successful playing a large number of games. You have 2 choices. You can either bet larger amounts on few games, or lesser amounts on more games. Betting on fewer games means your variance will be larger, while betting on more games, it won't fluctuate as much. ROI is ROI. ROI (the only metric you should really concern yourself with to determine if a system is profitable) doesn't care how many games per day you bet.

    If you knew that your ROI on every bet you made was 3%, what would logic tell you to do? If you confidently knew that for every $100 bet you made, you would return a profit of $3, what would you do? Should you limit your bets to satisfy the requirements of some internet strangers? Or should you bet as many plays as your system indicates?

    Don't know if your system is any good or not but you've got it in the wrong place. It needs to be in the College Basketball forum. If you win two in a row, you will get a few people tailing you. If you hit your 57-62%, you will be SweetJones55.

    Get it in the right place. People are dying for picks.

    My god I read a lot of nonsense in this thread. Don't really know where to start from.
    1.) 1st of all you don't bet vs the betting companies, you bet vs the market. The main ambition of the bookmakers is to make money regardless of the outcome. If the market generates a loophole that is good for you as long the public does not adjust, you should be on a winning side.
    2.) There are working, trends, systems or whatever you will call them. The number of bets does not correlate with the main EV+ you may have, profit is profit, it does not matter if you reach it with 10% yield or 0.1%.
    3.) I have generated nearly 6000 Picks in the last year and made 400 Units profit. You may work with fewer picks and do better. But for me diversification in terms of risk management is the key. So you can withstand a bad season, like last year in MLB.
    4.) So for anyone telling you, there is no system or there are no working angles: Don't believe them.

    Good luck with your work. At least everyone should appreciate the effort.

    lol...You could start by pretending you understood what you read.

    Nowhere in this thread is there any mention of a "betting company" and plenty of mention of the markets and adjustments forced on the oddsmakers and bookmakers by the bettors. But thanks for clearing that up.

    So what are you talking about? A different thread perhaps, except that the rest of your post seems relevant.




    Ebe keep it up and keep records so when it's time to determine whether or not you have evidence to formulate and make adjustments you will be able to do so.

    I was referring to what statnerds wrote on the first page. I strongly believe that there patterns shaping up in sports betting. No I don't believe it, I can say there is proof. It is not a big edge we are talking about. You'd have to catch overseas prices.

    I get exactly what you are saying. Sorry if my post seemed confrontational, I wasn't really trying to be.

    So if you have 1 more bad day you're trashing your system? If I'm reading and comprehending that correctly I can already tell you that it's trash.

    You don't get it. You don't have a big enough sample size in either of those to make that claim.

    Tell that to yourself instead of thinking one day of betting matters. Because one day means absolutely nothing.

    It seems that CubsFan1908 brings up an valid point. I will try to not use confrontational words so as to not have Ebe think I'm picking on him and this entire thread turns out the way many do on SBR. You say you have a system--it may or may not be any good (personally I doubt it, but who knows?). But crowing about the results of one sport after two days and claiming how "money" it is is rather ridiculous, just as dumping another sport after two days is equally ridiculous. You have to give it time before you declare success or failure. My own predicition for you picks is that if you're still doing this thread in February or so, your winning percentage will be about the same as any other guy who likes sports, knows a bit about them, and then picks games--roughly 50/50 with a net loss of money being as I haven't seem any underdogs in your picks. But prove me (and likely some others around here) wrong. I don't claim to always be right, so good luck.

    I understand. Just optimistic, thats all. Perhaps a bit overly optimistic and excited. Point well taken.

    Good luck everyone

    Ebe, good luck with the system. Bright side is you probably won't do worse than 50% over the longer term even if your system doesn't work.

    Bullshit Ebe, you will only hurt yourself if you omit the Citadel game. Forget what anyone else thinks or posts, if it's a play it's a play it doesn't matter if it started.

    Noting the game started is fine for the thread but your records will already be inaccurate for the "system" if you omit "system" plays from the official record. Don't do it, there is no need.

    If either you are someone else is worried about it, then your motives are wrong. Don't post to impress anyone, just try to win and track as such.

    True. Im not trying to claim anything, just doing research. This is in the spirit of research. Good point.

    This system looks promising.
