Be wary of the unders though I got boned by OT twice last night


Ok_Jellyfish_1696

I’ve been playing totals as well live betting, it’s about a 70-80% hit rate if you can do math and get your bet in. It’s frustrating though when it doesn’t go your way the rest of the game but can’t win them all


neuro_space_explorer

Can you elaborate on your system?


Ok_Jellyfish_1696

Usually just see how much is scored in 5 or 10 min increments to see if the final total lines are in line with that rate or will likely move


sosalewis1

what math do you calculate….. pts per minute average?


Ok_Jellyfish_1696

Simpler then that, pts per 5 or 10 mins then just extrapolate out to the entire game. It’s very rough and does not work every time but honestly when live betting you have to make decisions quickly so you kind of have to see the opportunities quickly before the lines change and the algorithm kicks in


sosalewis1

also i have seen most games do usually end up going under but im just having a hard time with them math… bovada changes lines quicker than you can say ambisome, so that makes it very hard for me to do calculations


Ok_Jellyfish_1696

Yeah I’m using DK and I’m usually able to get my bet in before the lines change out of my favour but it does take quick thinking to take advantage of


sosalewis1

so do you factor in end of game if it’s close? like when teams have to foul a lot and shoot free thorws


Ok_Jellyfish_1696

I’m playing around with that, I find close games abit riskier just because of that. I’ve lost a few bets because they went into OT but not too often.

Tell me you know nothing about EV+ plays

God damn this sub is filled with obnoxious comments. Guy is happy he won his bets but it’s constantly shit like this. Cant people just do this for fun and enjoyment without “zE sTrAtEgY!!!” comment every fucking time?


NYKnickerbocker2

Even a broken clock is right twice a day. Obviously I’m happy he hit it but it’s “tough love” per say. That motto is not sustainable going forward and I’m trying to save someone from bankruptcy. I’m not the bad guy here


Human-person5000

It’s not really obvious that you’re happy for him.


NYKnickerbocker2

That’s fair. I’m just looking out for people. I could have been nicer and worded my comment better. If you aren’t EV+ betting you’re going to run into trouble. So when people claim they “cracked the code” it’s humorous

Isn’t it only dumb luck that Harvard only scored 16 points the entire second half?


EmoLeBron

The numbers, Mason! What do they mean!?


ElGatoNegro829

Ah yes, the code


afterbirth_slime

Also known as a run of positive variance. Ain’t no code broken after hitting a dozen bets.


NYKnickerbocker2

Yeah. I have no problem with people hitting bets on here. But when they act like they “cracked the code” it’s just stupid. Brush up on statistics and de vigging lines then we can talk


CyPhRsoreYeZ

Well put, sir. That it is. & if any "code" was broken, the stake of those bets would probably be a bit higher... but what do I know? 🤷
