Ricass Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 This is my first post so bare with me! I am researching a new system for sports betting. I am looking at a low risk minimal return stategy (over/under) looking at Amercian sports since they play lots of games everyday. What sort of return on investment % (yield) figure would you think is decent and sustainable for a low risk minimal return strategy? Also, without me doing much leg work... how much historical data should I be getting to to figure out if this is worthwhile pursuing? 100 games, 500, 1000+?

KevinTHFC Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Re: Historical analysis for new betting system The margin of error can be calculated from the formula 1/SquareRoot(No of Samples) So if you had 100 games you margin of error would be +/- 10% For 1,000 games this will drop to around +/- 3% Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
