Power Rating System ($1000 to $100,000 in 36 months)

hello guys, update for friday oct 22

Beginning Balance on sept 5 2010: $1000

Current Balance on oct 22 2010: $1587

Power Ratings Program: 106-106 (+$587)

breakdown:

MLB: 71-73 (+$330)

NHL: 22-14 (+$361)

NFL: 11-15 (-$94)

CFB: 2-4 (-$10)

TOP plays: 10-7 (+2.75 units) (59%)

first a few notes: im about to spend the better part of 3hrs finishing of the program for the NBA, this will take me roughly 6hrs total to set the initial program. we will be giving it a shot from day 1...

my overall record is (106-106) thru 212 plays and im very, very pleased with that, considering all have been ML underdogs.  Our baseball and hockey are fine, im 100% committed to what we are doing there and i think ive stressed that before. if you want a longterm winner, i think those are the ticket.... i will not be using the regular season NHL and MLB for TOP plays.... i just dont think i need to do that, my program is profitable enough, as this thread is running about 2 months ahead of schedule...

i am going to run every college football game for tomorrow thru my program, i am going to post only the TOP 3 plays tomorrow morning or tonight, as my TOP plays for saturday, i plan on doing the same with the NFL on sunday... so we will have a good read on the TOP plays for football by monday morning... as for the nba, ill know more next week, when we get started with that..

plays for friday oct 22

213. Texas (+1.00) $30 to win $30 (lewis/hughes)

214. Calgary (+1.20) $30 to win $36

215. Tampa Bay (+1.15) $30 to win $35

216. Chicago (+1.00) $30 to win $30

there will be no additons today, if you can get chicago at (+1.00) id advise playing it anyway. all plays today have about the same relative strength.

Great Job Thinker - Slow & Steady

If you get a chance today, run the S. Fla @ Cincy CFB thru your system.  Game goes tonight on ESPN2, I'm liking Cincy (-8.5) alot.

Thanks

No problem... the lean would be to cincy but it is not showing a strong enough difference to make them a play for me...

Thinker

about 20% of the way thru the nba now.... i am going to make a small adjustment to the weekend football schedule.. i may play the TOP 5 plays on saturday and the TOP (3-5) on sunday, for the TOP plays, i wanted to do something a little different with football this weeked... but all selections will come straight off my Program. i wont handicap games at all... i may post the college plays this evening...

Thinker

sure payday; here is the order but there wasnt a large amount of difference today.... chicago, texas, calgary and then Tb...

about halfway thru the nba program, im going to finish the other half on monday morning...

im really looking forward to running the college football, as we now finally may have enough usuable data... ill post what the program calls the best (3-5) plays later tonight and ill list them as TOP plays and i will bet them and they will go into my running record for TOP plays..

Thinker

guys im sorry but the college football plays will not be posted until around 10:00 am cst saturday morning, this will still give an hour before the first kickoff... i think we will have one 11:00 am cst kickoff and should have about 5 plays... if your following, i would advise playing these, its really the first shot with some good workable data, now that we are this far into the season..

Thinker

Thinker, if you don't mind me asking.  How did you go from this:

"1. i should have never included college sports in this... period."

To this:

"if your following, i would advise playing these"

I see a contradiction here, and I'm worried about CFB

Change my mind please

smdio, at the start of the season, my program just did not have enough available (usuable data) to be included in the program. we are now getting deeper into the season and enough data has now been attained (i think) for this to work on college...

it is always everyone's own choice whether to follow or not... and another big reason, i am running so far ahead in this thread, that i am afforded the luxury of trying it again on college football... the college football plays will not be included in the program, they will be listed under the TOP plays...

ill explain a little more later today..

since sept 5, i have released 17 TOP plays and i have won $611 on these TOP plays.... this is where i will pick up from with those. also i want you to know, i will be playing mainly football and basketball in this portion of the thread.... the nba will also be included in the other part as well, at least at the beginning.

TOP plays: 10-7 (+$611) (59%)

Missouri +3 (-1.10) $110 to win $100

those are the TOP 5 plays, as selected by my Program for today. that is my exact bet for each game. i am currently up $611 on the season playing the TOP plays... feel free to ignore these wagers if you choose to do so, they are NOT what this thread is about but i wanted to share...

Blaaze: almost even on those 2, no advantage.

Thinker

im a big goal setter, my goal for the TOP plays is to win at minimum of (57.14%)... id like to hit for a higher rate but that is what im shooting for... i wont play anything over (-1.20) with these bets... currently i am sitting at (10-7) (59%) with a profit of ($611).. i will be wagering from a minimum of $100 on these to as high as $250.... as in anything else, i want to make money with these...

i am posting these to share with you what my Program is saying and how much im wagering on them... we are all adults here, so you follow and bet at your own risk...

all the plays are coming straight off the program that ive created, there is no handicapping involved in any selection... i have now ran all the games, so if you want to ask about an individual game, feel free to do so...

Thinker

gator: lean to iowa but dont know if they cover the (6pts)..

thank you bobbie18 for the kind words..

Thinker

Thinker, when you've posted football plays in the past it has always been with the same format as the other picks, ie underdog ML's. Are there any games today that the system would recommend to play the moneyline and what are the NFL plays going to be ML or with the number?
