Note that I am tracking all games without regard to where the public money is, so there are games in my stats that ken has left out of the system. Also, I use the lines when they close, so some of us have lost a game or 2 by a half point or a point, but the closing line was a winner, so I've used the closing line as a control. With this system one thing is clear, the later you wait to place the bet, generally the better line you get.

[/Quote] excellent work, and tracking technique, unsurpassed to say the least. I believe Ken is using the 'flat-betting' concept to simplify tracking WINS, based on the value of the thread. The link to the
google-drive-sheet is all anyone really needs who is interested in the tracking this system, appreciate your effort immensely, recommended advice: to those consistently flat betting this system, you need to convert your MM technique to a 4 unit
cover denomination attached to a 2 unit
ML WIN denomination; equative to a 6 unit recovery formula... At 53-31 (63%) with 30 ML WINS; first half wagering should be given strong consideration as an additional daily play, although not connected to the system, the stats speak for themselves, and gives a solid read to 'home dog first half wagering when playing a top 25 AP conference team'...
