oriental_express Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Re: Contrary System (US Sports based) Hi Valiant23 thanks for the welcome I think i noticed it 2ATS for nba ? When did you change it to 3ATS and how long did you analyse the results before you worked out it was 3ats now ? thanks again :nana In NBA I will wait until a team is winning or losing at least 3 ATS, but with NFL I will do so after 2. As long as one of the teams in any fixture are in the middle of these streaks I will make it a pick. The only time I don't is if a losing team plays another or a winning team plays another.

Valiant23 Posted February 7, 2007 Author Share Posted February 7, 2007 Re: Contrary System (US Sports based) I think Seattle had a push in the middle of the losing ATS streak so I don't think that will be one mate, but I had a quick look earlier and noticed 3 games so you're probably right. :ok I'll have a look and get back to you shortly. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A3ke Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Re: Contrary System (US Sports based) Hi Valiant, I thought you were playing teams who are playing against each others ATS. So With New Jersey who is -4 and Atlanta who is -1, both teams have losing ATS. So, i don't understand this well. And what if New Jersey had a push in last Match, you still select these one?

Valiant23 Posted February 7, 2007 Author Share Posted February 7, 2007 Re: Contrary System (US Sports based) Well Statfox said so but the best line I could get was +1.5. They lost by 2 so I count that as a loss. I do play opposing streaks, but I do not count it if the 'streak' is only 1 game. So if Atlanta were 2L I could not choose it.

A3ke Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Re: Contrary System (US Sports based) Tell me if i'm wrong: So you only pick following plays: Team A with ATS of +3, +4, +5 etc... against Team B with ATS of +1, push, -1, -2, -3, etc.... and Team A with ATS of -3, -4, -5 etc... against Team B with ATS of -1, push, +1, +2, +3, etc...

Mr. B Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Re: Contrary System (US Sports based) Hi Valiant, This is really impressive work and I want to congratulate you... but, I think you should back your system with stats. I usually use bet on your tips, but use an extra hints like for example: San Antonio game; SAN was well well rested and with victory feeling (bad results lately), and WAS was without Jamison (not for the first game) and playing a lot of though games lately. So this was as you predicted SAN. Orlando game; this was evidently a TOR game ATS since they are in top shape lately, and ORL aren´t. Plus, ORl was playing b2b (which we know that for EAST teams is like the devil). So TOR beat the ATS. Don´t get me wrong, I am just a rookie feeding out of your forums... and in my humble opinion, your system with a few extra factors is a winner for all times...

Yomica Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Re: Contrary System (US Sports based) Interesting, but... Now we all know your opinion is well, but this system works when things going strange. When things going "normaly", you don't need system. Everybody knows who is Jamison and "Toronto is on fire". But, you will see when things going strange, only Valiant will win. That's statistical evidence, not my opinion. I know, my english is horrible, but I hope you will understand what I am try to talk.

Regards, BangbFunny you should say this Bangb. When I was working on my figures last week I was talking to El Stuart, and he wondered whether it is better to have no knowledge of a sport but a decent system, or whether a knowledgeable punter can beat a system every time. Personally I think it helps me that I have no knowledge of NBA, and this system has caused me problems when it has put up a pick on NFL that I haven't agreed with. However others use statistics like the ones in this thread to good effect to help them make there decisions. PS. :welcome to the PL and thanks for posting.

Dominator Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Re: Contrary System (US Sports based) Interesting to see what seems to be a good system on a public forum can do.. The market have started to adjust the spreads to this it seems. I noticed lately that pretty much ALL early money goes on these selections driving them all down by atleast 1/2 pts(all todays picks are already down by atleast 1/2 point since opening). I'm affraid it wont be long before we will start seeing alot worse results with the system, due to masses forces the market to adjust to it.

They have so many strange results?! Contrary system in NHL, is it possible?[/quote']I have thought about NHL and MLB but I am pretty busy so I haven't had a chance to look into it. Although what is against us for MLB is that the same teams play a series of games against each other. Statfox (adjusted when I remember) Well it would be good for my ego to think this system is affecting prices but I know of only one that does so, and that is Slapdash's System ( :notworthy ). I would be very surprised if UK bookmakers do change their markets on the basis of this thread over the expertise of the Vegas linemakers, who I believe lead the way in setting the lines and the others follow. I was going to say something else but I don't want to jinx anyone, so I'll stick to this; :hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
