BeXXs Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 First of all: Muppet, the title is no offense, it just makes the thread look more interesting. And, in some way, its a kind of ad for your thread, isnt it? :tongue2 I have made a system for the corner spread market that i want to share here. Its based on a corner equity (CE) that i compute by analyzing the last 32 games of the two involved teams. I did not backtest it regarding actual odds, but my analysis gave me a coefficient of determination of 95% (i compared my CE with the mean number of corners taken in all matches with this CE). Therefore i will compute a difference by applying (diff) = |1-(CE)/(odds)| and look at the profit via a) selecting all value bets b) selecting only value bets with a difference of 5% or more. This is a paper trial. I start with a bank of 100 pts and stake 1 pt on each selection. I will measure the success in two ways (apart of the overall profit, obv.): 1) Profit per Bet 2) Yield, computed as in Muppets thread: (Yield) = (Profit won)/(Profit won+Profit lossed) Lets hope this works out. EDIT: Some points i forgot to mention: - I only place bets in Bundesliga, Premier League, Primera Division, Serie A and Ligue 1 - I got the coeffeizient of determination by taking all CE's for which there were more than 100 games with this CE. These CE's are 9.5 to 11.6, and i will only bet on matches with a CE in this interval (this eliminates more than half of the matches of Ligue 1). There was one statistical outliner at 11.3 (with a mean number of corners of 11.68) that i have omitted to get the stated coeffizient. Therefore it might be interesting to take a closer look at games with a CE of 11.3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanga Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Re: "Corner spreads" or "an attempt to dethrone muppet and his holy grail" BeXXs ... good luck with this you've put a lot of work and thought into this.:ok A quick question the odds indicated of 11.4 ? .... where is this taken from and what bets are you proposing ? Selling on spreads or possibly unders on betfair/bookies corners market ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeXXs Posted January 26, 2010 Author Share Posted January 26, 2010 Re: "Corner spreads" or "an attempt to dethrone muppet and his holy grail" Im selling/buying on the betfair corner spread. Perhaps the term 'odds' is not appropriate in this case, but i do not know how 'the number you sell/buy at in spread markets' is called.

jazzfish Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Re: "Corner spreads" or "an attempt to dethrone muppet and his holy grail" Hi, Sorry to ask a slightly unrelated question here, but I see you use Betfair for spread bets. I have been looking around for the Betfair spreads but can't seem to find them. Could you possibly direct me or send a link? Kind regards JF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeXXs Posted February 9, 2010 Author Share Posted February 9, 2010 Re: "Corner spreads" or "an attempt to dethrone muppet and his holy grail" @JF: Betfair offers corner spread markets only on a few matches. Look for the ones in the big leagues (BL, PL, SA, PD) that are played at a unique time, with no other match being played at the same time, and you will find what youre searching for. @All: Unfortunately, i will be busy the next weeks and do not have the time to keep this system going. But since it seems to be a loosing one, it might not be that hard of a loss. Good luck and all the best for your bets! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
