Sports betting chatter
Quote: MentalTo illustrate the way parimutuel tracks operate, consider a match race between two horses where the public did not favor either. There is $100K bet on each horse. The track takes out 16% of $200K or $32K. This is the house edge and it is 16% before any boost from breakage.
yeah, you're right
my bad
the exception is the minus pools where for example bridge jumpers bet a gigantic amount on a 1/5 fave to show in a 5 horse field and the track cannot pay them less than $2.10 back by their rules no matter what the calculation is
there are I believe 3 tracks which require a minimum $2.20 payout - and I believe the jumpers follow those tracks like hawks - 10% profit might not seem like much - but hey, it's double everywhere else
in these situations the tracks can actually lose money on a horse race - but a comparatively gigantic amount must be bet by the jumpers for that to happen

I was once at the track for a four horse stakes race. The track would normally cancel the show pool, but they left it open just because it was a stakes race. A bridge jumper bet about $100K on one of the favorites to show near post time. I quickly bet a few hundred on the other favorite to show. The bridge jumper's horse pulled up on the far turn. One of the horses paid $28 to show! My show bet on the co-favorite paid $15 to show and $3.80 to win.Quote: lilredroosterQuote: MentalTo illustrate the way parimutuel tracks operate, consider a match race between two horses where the public did not favor either.

I love finding opportunities where the Show pool pays more than the Win pool.
The sites have throttled back on the points for a bettor like me. I might not make even the second tier on MGM, Caesars, DraftKings this year. So any ‘free’ points are a bonus.
Quote: SOOPOOJust made 0 EV bets. One site had Paolini -130, another Krejcikova +130. Kept betting both until Paolini went to -135. I get points on both sites, essentially for free.

I use to do that for Caesars - made 7 stars for 2 years until they denied me 7 star status even with 400k TC. RCs still valuable though,
Also gets you VIP status at some books!
Have Sun under 153.5 $50 pays $118
Have Sun over 152.5. $60 pays $115
Either win $8, $5, or if exactly 153….. $123
Caesar’s had a ‘boost’ for Victor Hovland top 20 at +190. But they play ‘ties are losses’ which is different than all the other sites. It still seemed like a great bet. But no way for me to actually know. And the majority of Caesar’s boosts are still clearly -EV. Anyway, I took the offer, and when I checked later they lowered the odds to +150! That’s a pretty big move on this relatively obscure bet.
Aces -13.5. Sky +15. So win a little no matter what. Win a lot at 14, 1/2 a lot at 15.
good jobQuote: SOOPOOGot another good one.

No. They were both +EV bets using profit boosts so I was limited. I wasn’t even aware I had that middle when I made the bets. I’m guessing the value was literally a few dollars on each bet, so many would agree with you that it’s a waste of time. I enjoy finding these even if it just nets me a few $$
There are STARK differences in the odds offered on winning a NASCAR or F1 race from site to site.
DraftKings has Verstappen at -150
BetRivers has him at +100
Caesars has Hamlin at +400
FanDuel has him at +490
I’m guessing Verstappen at +100 is slightly -EV.
Imagine how - EV it is at -150!
My point being on bets where there are only two choices (e.g. Bills -7.5/ Cardinals +7.5, both at -110) the consumer (bettor) can easily tell what the vig is. On large field events with one winner not so easy.

You can devig it with a multi-way calculator. I wouldn't be surprised if they juice the favorite to hell.
If I get any offers I’ll also be betting on the USA to cover.
Since these boosts are only for the ‘overs’, the books will certainly lose big $$$ if he goes over, and make big $$$ if he goes under. I took some free $$. Got over 7.5 at +150, under 7.5 at -108.
I got a bunch of +EV bets in at over 6.5.
Needed a longshot HR bet tonight. Gotta love the name Logan o’Hoppe!
Low odds HR bet also needed. Judge has made me $$ this year. Let’s ride him. Second one needed so taking a flyer on Olson.
Also really like Rays to win. They are slight underdogs but because of the juice I’m laying -102. No offer so likely a -EV bet, but Rays pitcher has been unhittable recently.
I just had an offer…. Fine print says each leg must be -200 or longer. They give examples…. Says +150, or -300, are acceptable. I tried chat to explain to them that -300 is shorter, not longer. Couldn’t explain it to them. They kept asking me ‘how can they help me’.
Quote: SOOPOOI looked at the Germany basketball team roster. Playing USA. I see they have one NBA level starter (Fritz Wagner)and a few NBA level subs (Mo Wagner, Dennis Schroeder, Daniel Theis). I was able to get USA at -1000. Maybe I’m naive, but after the dismal performance against South Sudan I expect USA team to want to show well. Even if USA rests the ‘big names’, the bottom of their roster is good enough to beat any team the world has to offer.
If I get any offers I’ll also be betting on the USA to cover.
link to original post
I wonder about this US team
I watched them against Germany
LeBron heroics at the end saved the US
Otherwise Germany would have won
One player in particular I wonder about is Curry
He's not what he once was
He had a hard time covering Dennis Schroeder
1 for 7 on 3 pointers. Uggh
It got to the point I would cringe when he was shooting
US is too much one on one or taking a 3 rather then working as a team to get an easy open look
I guess whoever wrote the examples is truly hopelessly in over their head. If you try to make the bet, I think you will find the people who set that up don't accept -300Quote: SOOPOOI just had an offer…. Fine print says each leg must be -200 or longer. They give examples….

Correct. Wouldn’t accept -300.
I’ve had offers that require two underdogs parlayed.
I have some offers that I need -150 or longer.
Many at -200 or longer.
Most common is -500 or longer.
The concept (I think?) is that they want the profit boost to be used for a ‘real’ parlay.
The profit boost level sometimes is tied to number of selections. So they don’t want 8 -10000 picks combined with one +100 pick to essentially just boost the +100 pick.
Quote: SOOPOOSo the betting sites are experiencing ‘Skenes-mania’! Boosting his ‘over’ strikeouts up the wazoo.
Even with his first career loss on Tuesday he only gave up 2 run in eight innings. Besides how high his strikeouts are, look how low his walks are. This is the best start by a rookie pitcher in my 50 years of watching baseball.

I think Valenzuela has him beat. 8 shutouts his rookie year. I doubt Skenes gets 8 shutouts in his career. But he is the real deal. Hopefully doesn’t get injured like Spencer Strider did. Strider was Skenes last year.
Rays up 8-0. Bradley has been super. I know who I’m betting on 5 days from today.

a couple of props offered by DraftKings at this moment
-110 -Keider Montero (Tigers) under 4.5 KOs vs. the Twins - he's been under that in 4 out his last 5 games
- 120 - Gavin Stone (Dodgers) under 17.5 outs vs. Astros - he's had 3 short outings in a row and has been under that in 4 out of his last 5 times out

Amazingly, before you posted this, I took Montero under 4.5 K’s in one of my parlays. I’ll look to use Stone under 17.5 outs as well.
My Rays bet was spot on. 13-0.
My Lindor hit/ Mets win won. It was even better. After my post BetMGM gave +450 on him to get an RBI and Mets win. He crushed an early home run.
BetRivers has me betting $500 on Olympics. Must be on bets -200 or longer. Get free bet of around $120. (Total US medals). With the slightly added juice on Olympics bet it’s barely +EV, but I do get ‘points’ for all those generally -EV bets as well. My first sojourn will be on the Canadian men’s basketball team. And also a specific bet on them to win the silver medal. I don’t know how the brackets go, but if they can avoid the USA ‘side’ of the bracket, I think they are the second best team.
Taking underdog Pirates and under 8.5 at +660. Pirates pitcher has been very good recently.
tanked yesterday
new strategy using covers.com (trends click) picking an over or under based on when both teams have a significant positive r.o.i. on the over or both have a significant positive r.o.i. on the under for a significant no. of games
yesterday there were 7 picks from this that went 7-0 - I didn't post them - not tryin to brag about stuff I didn't post - just showing reason for hopefulness
today:
reds/rays u 7.5
guardians/phillies u 9
twins/tigers o 7
cubs/royals u 8.5
dodgers/astros u 8.5
nationals/cardinals o 8
yankees/red sox o 9.5
rockies/giants o7.5
.
yesterday's o/u picks went 4-3
not posting the odds - they're not always -110 - but I think they average out to be about that
today:
reds/rays u 7.5
guardians/phillies u 9.5
twins/tigers o 8
cubs/royals u 8.5
nationals/cardinals o 8.5
rockies/giants o 7.5
yankees/red sox o 9
.
the MLB o/u strategy that I'm using went 4-3 yesterday and what I've posted is 8-6 - I tracked another 7 games that I didn't post that went 7-0
so, it's a total of 15-6
but I'm not sure it's a winning strategy and I don't wanna keep posting until I'm pretty sure it has value
I'm going to keep tracking until I have done 100 games - a few more weeks
if I believe it truly has value I will report back

Keep up the good work.
Today MGM has Skenes/Wheeler to each throw at least 7 K’s at +210. Last 3 games for Skenes 8/11/8. For Wheeler 7/7/7.
Seems like +210 is more than fair. Skenes should make that number 80+% of the time. And Wheeler 50+ % of the time.
Well….. Yankees were -152 on the site I had them parlayed, but the Blue Jays were +158 on the site I was going to hedge. I kept betting on the +158 site, then matching on the -152 site. After 4 matching pairs the -152 turned to -170, ending the fun. I love the free money (just a few dollars) and I like giving the sites these (what appears to them to be) -EV bets.
I’ve enjoyed looking at past ‘matchups’ between pitchers and specific batters. But the juice on O/U hit totals is exorbitant. Like -185/+140. But just found bets just picking which of two hitters get more hits. Tie is no bet, which will of course happen quite often. So Arenado and Guerrero both were around .500 against the pitchers they were facing, and needing MLB bet for a parlay, took them to outhit specific player on the opposing team. The juice was only the regular -110/-110. Both had multiple hit games. $$$
Betting against White Sox has also been lucrative. I feel like I’m a really long ‘banker’ run!
BetRivers has their No homer line on Judge at -240. Free money. I made $1 on last men’s USA BBall game. Going for another $1 today. Jokic is best player in the world. USA has around 10 of the top 20. Next best Serbia player I don’t think cracks top 100.
I have a great pre tourney bet on France to specifically win women’s silver medal. They need to win one game then get slaughtered by USA in gold medal game.
Another good one is USA women win gold in Soccer and Basketball, and men in Basketball. Got good odds as USA women were + odds alone to win gold. They are favorites now.
My bad pick was Canada men to get silver. I thought they were the only team good enough to give the USA a game.
Also Spain +123 to win soccer gold. France at -113.
My bridge jumper bet for today is USA women’s basketball.
I made around 50 bets yesterday. Ranging from $1 to $50. Total for the day was ….. net zero! Didn’t win or lose a dollar!
My likely -EV bet of the day is Canning over 3.5 K’s. His last 3 outings have been 8/6/6 K’s. I don’t understand the line of 3.5.
Going back 15 games he’s averaging 4.5. When something looks too good to be true….

That 3.5 does seem low as Washington seems to strike out a lot from what I have seen. If he can go 5 innings you have a great chance to win that.

I think France for men’s BBall gold for 2028 is a good futures bet. Wemby is the real deal. And there are the top two players in this draft that will be seasoned pros by 2028. No, I’m not really making that bet.

Moving on….. FanDuel has USA -14.5. BetRivers France +16. With boost on FD. So either win a pittance, or win it all on exactly 15. Win 1/2 on exactly 16.
I love Mariners over Mets tonight. Severino has given up 21 hits and 12 runs over his last 3 starts totaling 13 innings. Only -130. So going Mariners/over 7.5. I’m feeling 6-2.

General concept correct. Severino gave up 4 runs in 5 innings. Mariners piled on weak Mets bullpen. Blowout win. Parlay wins. Both USA men and women win but not close to covering. Made for good TV. I love my France Silver bets. And USA winning men’s BBALL, and women’s soccer and bball. Overall probably broke even on Olympics, (really bad in tennis), but will be getting $120 ish free bet from BetRivers to makeup for many of my -EV bets there.
MLB o/u trend following system - almost 100 picks (pushes not considered) - from July 26 thru yesterday
58-40 - 59.6% winners - about 12.7% r.o.i.
the pick is when covers.com (click matchup and then trends) has both teams on the Game Total over trend - then the pick is over - or both on the Game Total Under trend and then the pick is under
covers is somewhat subjective in posting this trend - sometimes all games and sometimes just home or away
when I first saw this I didn't believe it would win because it doesn't consider the current pitchers which is so critical to the o/u
but I decided to track it anyway, and it did win and kept on winning
so, I can't explain why the non consideration of current pitchers didn't cause the picks to be nothing other than random
but does it matter what I can or cannot explain if it's a winner____?
there is some possibility that the good results were due to chance - but I don't think so
I will continue tracking until the end of the season and I will post those results
I make no claim to have made big bucks on this - I bet very seldom now - I just enjoy tracking trends with no handicapping such as this
very few of the trends I track are winners - most of them are worthless
I would like to see comments on this

trend is not the amount of money bet -
it is for example today - "the Cleveland Guardians have hit the Game Total Over in 20 of their last 33 games at home - +7.85 units - 22% r.o.i."
.
For those that want to fade me….. I LOVE White Sox +2.5 runs at +100, so underdog as Yanks -2.5 is -120. The White Sox pitcher has had 3 good outings in a row, while the Yankees pitcher 3 bad outings in a row. The Yankees used a lot of bullpen resources last night in their abysmal blowout loss.
Of course, the White Sox perhaps being the worst team in baseball history doesn’t breed confidence, but I’m going Sox +2.5 in a couple of parlays. I even have them winning outright and under total in a longshot parlay.
Also like Mets and Padres.
Variance…. shot 49 front 9….. probably 5 worse than average for me…. 40 back 9….. 4 better than average. Had multiple bets going…. Won!!! ($0.25).
I'm ashamed to say I bet under the old deal on Judge HR yes/no without checking first to see if the game would get rained out. Not once but twice I did that. Time to wear the dunce hat.
Quote: odiousgambitI guess you've noticed that the DK deal for the boost on a player hitting a HR yes/no has been torpedoed ... it's no longer a simple over/under 0.5 and this gives them the opportunity to give bad odds. I assume you see the same offer I do. I think Judge was killing them

Lucky for me market was up around 500 times what I’m losing betting today!
I do still have my White Sox bets….
It’s interesting how one site might suck on SGP’s, but be better on golf. Another might suck on HR odds, but take less juice on tennis.
Needed at big underdog today. So taking a flyer on Nationals/under. Boosted got it up to +900 or so. (Need Nats to score at least 3 as well).
White Sox have an interim manager. Intentionally walked Soto to get to …. Aaron Judge! I think I fire him on the spot. I said so before….. Judge homered….
These guys just overthink this ‘lefty/righties’ stuff.
Quote: SOOPOOFinally had a good night. Judge boosted HR bet. And also Soto boosted HR bet. Soto was over 4-1 which was juicy.

Do you pitch to the guy with four home runs and two doubles in the last two games or walk him to get to Judge? There is no right answer, although I imagine Sizemore won't try that experiment again.

I pitch to Soto. But of course not happily! Judge was hot as well, just walks, singles, and doubles.
Soto making himself a lot of $$$$$$ for next contract!
