    Does anyone know of a cheaper option than Bet Labs?

    Hey guys, I keep seeing these interesting stats about teams where it will say something like:

    "Dodgers are 12-3 when coming off a loss facing left-handed pitchers."

    I did some research to find out where people are creating these kinds of formulas and I found Bet Labs.

    The problem is, I don't bet big amounts and I can't justify 80 dollars a month for this service.

    Does anyone know of a cheaper option out there where I could make my own formulas?

    Sorry to make my first post a question, but I really like these kinds of stats and would really like to make use of them if I could find them somewhere else for a more affordable price.

    I took a long break from gambling, but I remember that these forums are awesome and I can't wait to reacquaint myself with some of the current sports-betting information!

    Thanks, in advance, for the help!

    I think in some cases it really does.

    I remember some teams doing really well off a bad loss, and some teams doing really bad.

    I think that it speaks to team psychology etc.

    Same thing like travelling in terms of the last game on a road trip.

    And also stats where no specific team is selected and it just tallies tendencies of ALL teams.
    (I remember these ones being very good for assessing positions in terms of travel/off-days/coming off 1 pt loss-win/coming off 10 pt loss-win/etc.)

    I remember it was often the case that it seemed like Vegas believed in it too because lines on clear favourites would be shaded for no obvious reason, 75% of the public would be on them, and then I'd see the underdogs win outright, or play into O.T. over and over again.

    It wasn't coincidence.

    So yeah, I really do remember it absolutely helping.

    That said, I know that you couldn't just look at one stat and go to the window and thing you'll earn money that way...but if it fits into a larger logical program...then yeah it absolutely seems to make sense.

    I would totally spend money with a service, but Bet Labs is just way too expensive man.

    ...

    There HAS to be someone else out there...

    Please just save your money. Every one of those "12-3, coming off a loss to a pitcher born in Texas" things are a waste of time. For every game, just imagine how many of those "trends" are in play. They all can't be meaningful.

    Learn to project how teams will perform using actual statistics. It's a hard road, and you have to enjoy the journey, but you can get to a place where you gain a little, breakeven. With bonuses in play, you can gain a good amount.

    You can do it, I believe in you Sniper.

    It's the same as looking for trends at a roulette wheel or craps table. You will always find some.

    @jjgold That helps. Thanks a lot.

    Also, I found atsstats has something similar to Bet Labs as well.

    -

    @dlowilly Yes and no. I think that if it's a random trend (...because you're right, there HAS to be 10-1 streaks out there that are 100% random, I totally agree...) then, I think, betting that play is actually likely to be 10-2 because a loss is 'due'.

    However, I also think that "coming off a loss" and "coming off a win" and "first game on road at home" and "last game away" and "coming off a 1 run loss as fave/dog" and "coming off 1 run win as fave/dog" and "coming off 5 run loss as fave/dog" etc. all have very specific psychological factors of letdowns and near misses and blowouts that will affect teams the next game.

    I know one thing is that most players' wives give them them weak knees for their first games back at home.
    And maybe some guys are distracted on their last game of an away stand. etc.

    I also think that depending on the pedigree of a team, coming off a loss can be a significant boost or a damper depending on the team psychology/coaching etc.


    But I especially think that these stats are valuable when you see the whole league sharing these tendencies, but some teams are definitely way better coming off a loss than others, vice versa with wins and close games and blowout games.

    So there are absolutely some trends that are just total coin flips, but there are others that seem to bank.


    Anyway. That's what I've found.

    Good luck sports investors!!

    Thanks for all of the feedback.

    You guys are awesome.
