No man, since I lost 5 totals tuesday on british soccer I found a way to include the defense in my calculator and the results are much better. I compute over/under both for offence and defense and than make the mean between chances given by the offense and chances given by the defense and that mean it's my estimate for over / under chances.

I am curious about basketball. I didn't say it's not working because I've tried, but the point is that scoring in any sport where you can score more than 1 point at a given time is not a Poisson process and the points are not distributed accordingly to the Poisson distribution.

I don't know about anyone trying to test it for basketball totals, but, at least in theory, it's not supposed to work.

Keep posting when you have much data for basketball.

Thanks, I've been working the last week on 2 systems: one for O/U and one for sides. The sides system let me down today but the O/U system works much better and works pretty constantly so far, so I'll stick only to my over / under system.

What does PWP stand for on the spreadsheet? On Toronto-Col i only get 57.44 chances for ovr according to the spreadsheet. I thought you took plays at 60%? Maybe i understood wrong or i dont know if i missed something.

I have 60.34% over at TOR@COL. Did you use the home numbers for colorado and away numbers for toronto?

I have col at home 25 / 78 / 69 and toronto away 25 / 74 / 95.

And PWP is projected winning percentage.

They usually start around 11:00 (ET). At 11:00 always start the hockey games in Slovakia, at 11:30 in Czech and Finland, at 13:00 in Sweden and so on. In Russia they can start earlier (may start at 06:00 ET, depends where is the game played in Russia).
