    Roag's 2-5 Draw System Plays

    OK, this is a test project using the 2-5 system for Draws:

    June 22 Plays (all plays are at 5Dimes) - we are opening up 2 series tonight

    Series 1, Bet 1: 6/22/2011 7:30 PM USA MLS Soccer 153 Draw (Sporting Kansas City (USA-MLS) vs Philadelphia Union (USA-MLS))* +222 - $10 to win $22.20

    Series 2, Bet 1: 6/22/2011 8:30 PM USA MLS Soccer 156 Draw (Salt Lake (USA-MLS) vs Chicago (USA-MLS))* +224 - $10 to win $22.40

    *For those who don't know the 2-5 system, we are basically trying to win 2 bets out of 5 in a series. I'll be opening up multiple series based upon the strength of each play. When we win 2 bets, that series is closed. We're only betting small since this is a test project. I'll give it a few weeks and if we're making money we'll continue.

    I had to look quite awhile but I finally found you. Is there a preset amount for each step? How high do the last bets get? GL

    Since we're playing Draws with odds generally over +200 I'm going to change the bet amounts from the traditional 2-5 to the following. We can adjust accordingly based upon the results:

    Bet 1 (b1) = $10
    b2=$20
    b3=$40
    b4=$60
    b5=$80

    MLS is the best place to start for draws.

    So, to state and confirm the obvious, maximum exposure for each series is $210. And you have to have at least 1 draw out of the 5 games picked.

    Hi Roag, looking good on the first game of your project. Scoreless draw with less than 10 minutes left.

    RB, when you come up with your systems that generate picks do you do a lot of back-testing?

    if we'd feel more comfy mm-wise with a 33% break even and wanted to play 2-6...how would the bet sizes adjust (btw...i'd strongly suggest you consider taking this slightly more conservative route...cuz no matter how good a capper you are, 40% hit rate is just too optomistic)

    No, I don't want to use the 2-6 because that b6 would be like $120 and I don't want to risk that much. We're going to lose series there's no question about it, I'm still running the numbers to see how many series wins we need for every loss. The other option we have is instead of betting "to risk" we could bet "to win"; with the odds over +200 for these plays the amount risked is cut in half (or less) and the series loss(es) would be minimized.

    Let's see how it goes for 2-3 weeks, then we can make adjustments as needed. This isn't going to be easy, but it can be profitable.

    the "to risk" version of betting is perfectly suited to any sort of "loss+chalk recuperation" method (be it a "series"/"chase" to win or a "line" to clear)...it'd be interesting to compare on back data the average cost of 2-6 series losses bet "to win" vs. 2-5 series losses bet "to risk"

    Right. I don't have time right now but hopefully this weekend I'll be able to crunch some numbers.
