Re: Risk of Ruin

Thanks. Big help. Honestly, if you don't have anything intelligent to add, just stay away. All I did was ask a simple question.

Risk of Ruin

I've been looking for a formula to calculate risk of ruin in for sports betting, but I can't seem to find one. All I see is the formula for poker. Anybody out there that can help me out?

Re: Botting the NHL

MrBlueNose,

I was wondering what you use to bot. I don't mean the data or anything like that. But what programs? I'm looking to slowly learn how to do something like this and I was wondering if...

Re: Math Question

While the link is informative and is exactly what I need, I don't have the slightest idea how to implement that in Excel. Any clue?

Re: Math Question

Well, with a little research I may have figured this out. What I found was that I needed to estimate my standard deviation by taking the square root of my win pct. times 1-win pct with that divided...

Re: MLB: Quantitative handicapping of rookie pitchers

I can't speak for anyone else, but when guys are making their debuts, or only have a a few starts under their belts, I just simply stay away from the game. In the future, I'm probably going to add in...

Re: TomG\'s Robot Professional MLB Betting

In my eyes, it's a question of how far you want to break things down. How big is the change for someone like Brandon Webb with a good infield behind him compared to a poor one? On levels like this, I...

Re: TomG\'s Robot Professional MLB Betting

Well, at least the math is correct. Lol.

The Yankees game is probably a bad example just because it's the Yankees and public opinion sways that line more than anything.

I guess I'm just happy...

Re: TomG\'s Robot Professional MLB Betting

I calc'd Oakland to -109. Some of my numbers have been pretty drastic lately and I'm not too sure why. I'm starting to think that I may be doing something wrong. I have the As giving up 4.24 runs and...

Re: TomG\'s Robot Professional MLB Betting

I just entered my data or the As/Yankees game, and since we have similar system I'm not surprised they are in agreement here. I'm really wondering what vegas is thinking on that line, because I just...

Re: TomG\'s Robot Professional MLB Betting

Ummm, not really. I'm not articulating myself clearly here, but I'm not really sure how. I basically need the first two parts of the vlookup formula to be the same.

Re: TomG\'s Robot Professional MLB Betting

Ok, I understand what you mean, but here's another question. I defined my range as "royals"

Where you have the word data in your vlookup formula, i want that to correspond to the cell with the...

Re: TomG\'s Robot Professional MLB Betting

OK, I have a bit of an Excel question and I'm hoping it is ok to ask it here.

Basically, what I am trying to do is run a VLOOKUP to another sheet that has bullpen data on it. My problem is I don't...

Re: Irisheyes\' MLB Overnight Robot

I just went through all of my numbers and I'm in agreement with you for the Dodgers. My system has it as a really bigplay. Apparently, it likes what it sees in Kuo. I'll be interested to see how it...

Re: TomG\'s Robot Professional MLB Betting

Well, I ran the numbers for the rest of the games today.

They will be listed as follows:

Pick : BetEd Line : My 20c Line: My 10c Line: "Value"

For value, I took the BetEd line and turned it...

Re: TomG\'s Robot Professional MLB Betting

With the Toronto game, it looks a lot better as a dime line @ -145, in my opinion. That's the problem with these 20 cent lines, they really put a heavy price on the favorites.

Back to the Oak/Cle...

Re: TomG\'s Robot Professional MLB Betting

Honestly, I was a little suprised by that too. By the numbers, there really isn't much difference in Byrd and Blanton. At least, based on FIP there isn't. The reason the line gets so skewed is...

Re: TomG\'s Robot Professional MLB Betting

OK, I sort of have something similar set up so I'd liket o share my lines here, too. Maybe as a comparison of systems, I guess. I have 20 cent lines at BetEd so that's what I'll be using compared to...
