Below are yesterday's results and YTD numbers. I, once again, want to point out that any visiting team, that has been picked with the current algorithm has won this year at a rate of 55.26% over 304 total selections. Last year it hit on 55.07% over 138 selections. So it is just over 55% with just over 400 selections. I continue to believe that a statistically significant sample size would be just over 600 selections. I'm 2/3's of the way there with it holding an awfully nice win rate. If someone could please confirm to me that the 600 selections would be a significant sample size, that would be appreciated.

I'd also like to note that the selections who are favored visiting teams are winning at a rate of 59.29% this year.

Today's Picks will be posted later.

OK. So it looks like a website called SportsInsights claims you need 2,000 games with a 57% win/rate to be significant. I've still got a ways to go then.

How are you evaluating W/L? Brooklyn covered for a W, Phil didn't for a L, Miami did for a W, etc.

darthvader, sorry for the confusion. I will try to make the posting more clear going forward.

What you have pasted here are the picks made by my algorithm for that day. For example Brooklyn was a pick getting the 11. The "L" that you see on the same line is NOT the result. It is meant to reflect a random pick (using Excel's random function) for that game. In the case of the Brooklyn game I saw it as a winner and the random function took the opposite side, therefore the "L" to signify that the random function called it a loser. The win/loss rates for the random picks are listed in the stats under "Mr. Random". Similarly, the "W" for Philly wasn't stating that the game had won. It merely was an indicator that the random pick happened to agree with my choice as to the winner and therefore the "W".

Please let me know if that didn't clear it up.

Mr. Steel,

What value do you see in whether or not your picks agree or disagree with a random pick? Over the long term, 50% it will, and 50% it won't. That doesn't seem to add any value.

IMO, if you wish to present and discuss a strategy (which is valuable from a community standpoint, as it's us vs. the books), it would be more straightforward each day to review the previous day's picks where W/L would indicate the actual result vs. the predicted result and then present the current day's picks based on your selected strategy.

darthvader, the showing of a random pick was a request made by another poster, last year. I'm really not sure of its value. Although it has in the past provided a few chuckles.........

The results, as posted daily, are a summary of the prior day's picks. I do not show the results of each individual game. You feel that it would be helpful? I could, but I really couldn't add commentary since the picks are made using many variables and it would be difficult to review the reasoning behind a pick. So my picks are strictly stats based. Anyone with a good knowledge of the game, who can add color (good or bad), would certainly be helpful to me.

Well it all depends on your intent. Most people who publicly post their strategy are either looking for feedback or are looking to pump their ego (presuming it's a winner). Your intent is unclear. My point is just that looking at your post structure as a newbie, it is very confusing. The whole random thing is of no value, as its picks will average 50% long term. I assume your goal as a sports bettor is to average better than that :-)

I would suggest a cleaner presentation:

Previous Day's Picks:
Line Pick Result
Miami -5 @ NYK Miami W
OKC -4.5 @ Wash OKC L

Season record 55-45

Today's Picks:
Line Pick
Orl @ Bos -5 Bos

Or something like that.

Just my two cents.

darthvader,
thanks. I appreciate the input. I'll do my best to clean up and make it a bit more clear. Also, in regards to "Mr. Random", I'll complete the year with it and then probably remove it. Thanks again and good luck.

BTW, the intent is to show that you can succeed using existing data to create an algorithm to make picks. I post it in order to, hopefully, get a useful comment that may help me improve, and to create a record. Feeding the ego is nice also.............. :-)

I totally agree with your intent. I use the same premise, but a different algorithm.

If you keep Mr. Random, I would suggest separating his picks from your picks. The correlation of his picks to yours has no value.

I have identified what I think it is a reasonably adept strategy. Just starting to bet it now going forward. I can only judge success a few months down the road.

Brooklyn at -11? Had I seen that in time I may have actually taken Philly. I know Jersey has been playing better of late, but not THAT good.

Allow me to preface by saying I really respect you doing this. Posting picks and recording results is not for the faint of heart. Further, keeping up with it is no small task. Thanks.

I like "Mr. Random." It provides some chuckles and gives a decent idea for those who are less sophisticated to keep in mind what random variance can do. I would suggest you keep it, but of course that is entirely up to you.

endermike, thanks. I wish that I could say that I have some sort of good motive, but I really am just trying to create a record. I'd like to feed the ego and be considered one of the best at this and I know a record has to be established in order to do so. At the same time, I also understand that it probably won't happen....this stuff is tough.

Regarding Mr. Random, if I get a couple of others who would like him kept then I will re-consider removing him at year end.

Yo Steel

I was the one who originally requested random. I am still following even though I do not post much. My entire premise was that the books know these games and set the line nearly perfect so it should be 50% against the spread. Therefore it does not matter what games you choose in the long run, you will lose due to the juice on the games. I hope that I am wrong and you can significantly outperform both myself and Mr. Random.
