    LT,
    I have a general question. Any chance your site will have first half lines in the handicapping contests? I know you have first lines available to bet in the SBR Sportsbook.

    Not with current sbrcontests platform no. There has been talk of upgrading the system though, but I am not privy to those conversations.

    LT I have a general question — how/ why do you land on BC +8.5 when there’s 2 other identical lines with NW and Duke

    The only difference between the three is the public is on BC which is why I’m wondering why you disregard the public

    What does fact that there are two other games with identical lines have to do with anything? BC is only one of those three where model shows nice enough variance.

    What I’m saying is that you’re a fuxking moron for trusting a model and never accounting for the public.


    NW will cover +6.5 (30% of tickets on NW spread & ml)

    Duke will prob cover +9.5 ( 35% of tickets on Duke spread but 75% Duke ml)

    BC ... not sure will cover +8.5 (55% public on spread and 75% ml)

    You’ve made the same mistake the entire year all year long

    I’m letting you hear it today and calling it in advance to prove a point — models don’t work if they aren’t accounting for the % of tix

    NONE of this matters. I am not saying you can't go 4-0, but it would have nothing to do with ticket count.

    Also, in past years the models have often naturally put me on the unpopular sides like you are suggesting because that is where the value has historically been since books were able to shade the popular sides a tad. In other words, I did not seek out unpopular sides, I just ended up there naturally a lot.

    This year has been totally different as I have ended up on more favorites than ever before. One factor there is the public becoming more sophistcated, making it harder to shade lines. Thank God for NBA and NHL. lol

    it’s good to model quantitatively

    But ignoring the qualitative aspects

    Yes it was. You can say something without calling someone a fukking moron. At least, people who aren’t stupid can. I may have given you too much credit. I apologize for that.

    No one gives me credit on this forum. Regardless, you’re right I shouldn’t say that

    I apologize @ LT

    Would like to see you on all three
