  • (Quote) I though it was excellent, the casting of non-actors went really well. The pacing was on point. I had a little trouble with Sandler as being too unafraid of physical threats. I recognize the feeling of having a hidden insight (Garnett’s in…
  • +900 on Demi Lovato wearing clear/no color on her nail polish is my favorite. I think she wears it on stage but when people are only seeing her on a screen there's less reason to show splashy colors.
  • I'm working on a project at the moment, the IIHF World Championship. I find international tournaments in all sports are pretty easy to grab EV (especially when it is hard to gather homogeneous data). I found a pretty cool website (in French) that h…
  • StackAttack, great stuff. 1. How did you get turned on to Astana, it seems super obscure. 2. What is your theory as to why there is EV in these bets? Is it that the bookie models don't have precedent to price hockey mismatches of this magnitude?

  • That ends the warmups, a couple weeks off until the World Cup, note there is some moneyline movement in my pending bets, but the South Africa future still seems available and I think has value. previously posted September 20 Rugby World Cup Japan -…

  • FACT: if you post a line that is 6% better than the fair line that is available your ROI will be approximately 600 bps higher than if you post the current line. --- Professor of Arithmetic

  • (Quote) I agree. I've ordered the accountant's report. I will be shocked if the accountant was hired in advance of this incredible run. My guess is that there is a rigorous time stamping system but the accountant was called after the fact to revi…

  • Great stuff, ebemiss. I saw this FIBA link but it didnt have the info I need to calculate the tempo of a team for over/under purposes. It looks like it sometimes does. My model uses an ELO method, and with initial ELO scores set by the opening od…
  • (Quote) Thanks ebemiss. This is dead-on the bookie lines. I'm curious were you able to find boxscore data for any of the warmup matches? I could not, it would be very helpful for totals modeling. My Venezuela line is now Venezuela + 5 after Pol…

  • In the late 1980s the NY Post had a $1K handicapping contest, you snail-mailed in your card and had to hit every Sunday game against the spread to win, otherwise the prize rolled over. The lines were stale so sometimes I'd get through the early gam…
  • (Quote) I don't think you can get 150-1 or 200-1 on Pence easily. I agree if Trump stroked out tomorrow and Pence were an incumbent he'd be very attractive probably a 25%-35% shot at winning. But I think Pence would have a primary challenge if it…
