Let's suppose I make the following 4 bets for $1,000 each plus juice):
Favourite at -150 and win ($1,000)
Over at +105 and win (+1,050)
Favourite at -125 and lose (-$1,250)
Dog at +105 and lose (-$1,000)
What would the net units be? Is it minus 0.20 (1 + 1.05 - 1.25 - 1)
I've seen the following results for a current sports capper and wondered how they received a unit total of 6233 when they are correct only 58% of the time. Is it because they have they have won taking many underdogs that pay > 100? If not, please provide reasons.
Should I be reading the unit return as 62.33. If $1,000 bet was made 536 times, the net dollar return would be $62,330.
Lastly, in my above four betting examples, would the unit value total be different if two bets were made for $500 and the other two bets were made for $1,000.

Your units are correct at -0.20 unit based on 1000 per unit. A unit should be the TO WIN amount. Now that amount is based on what you consider a standard bet.
2% of a bankroll of 1000, would be a UNIT of $20. In order to state in units, you must be consistent with the amount from the beginning. $30 would be 1.5 Units, ($40 = 2 Units, etc.) using the 2% of 1000 start.
58% wins with the amount of games they have picked, is going to net you big returns. They are more than likely sticking to the "standard" way of counting units from most cappers. Try $100 per unit.
