  1. Re: Grex's OVERS; 146 bets; +19% yield Slightly off-topic I know but I've been working on my own model for totals, and found a very similar result to what you have, overs work well, unders don't. It's really annoying not being able to decipher the reason why, obviously England is a somewhat high-scoring country but not ridiculously so, logic would say you can still turn a profit betting unders somehow.

  3. Re: England » Barclays Premier League » Oct 29-31

    I simply don’t know what Chelsea did to deserve to be such a strong favorites against Arsenal. Maybe it is due to their better record against Arsenal, since the Blues have won 6 out of the last 10 games between these two sides, while Arsenal managed only 3 wins, while 1 game ended in a draw.
    This and the fact that Arsenal haven't won away since April when they beat Blackpool.
  4. Re: Binary Betting

    Not sure how you work that out Surely you would pick more winners at 1.85 in a two outcome market than in a three outcome one? 1.85 v 1.85 1.85 v 3.25 v 4.00 Or am I missing something?
    First of all this market would never happen. If you have a market at 2.50 - 3.40 - 2.90 you have 3 fairly even outcomes to choose from, if you choose them randomly you'll hit 30ish percent. If the AH market was for the same game you might have Team 1 -0.5 @ 2.15 and Team 2 +0.5 @ 1.80, and choosing randomly should have you around 50%. So yes you are missing something.
  5. Re: Binary Betting You'll be backing more winners than if you bet on the 1X2 markets that's for sure, therefore your variance will be smaller. I'm not really sure about the 'value' part of your question. I don't think the market matters when determining where you will find value. If you have 10% edge in a market it doesn't matter what the market is, or the price you're getting it on, it's still 10% value. But as I mentioned earlier, if the variance is smaller in a handicap market, then yes that should be your choice.
