I think the key is being able to hang your hat on something - that something needs to be repeatable and ultimately shows a profit. I used to look up a variety of factors when it came to baseball - including day of the week, left vs right, era, etc etc. I finally realized - the oddsmakers are smart people who have the time money, data, to put a number on a game that probably takes into a consideration - left vs right, era etc. The only thing I do now is evaluate a few factors - this includes the opening line (donbest.com); I go to sagarin.com and look up every starting pitcher for that day and give each pitcher a numerical rating - then look up previous games played with that opening line and pitchers away/home with as close as you can get numerical ratings. There are trends in the numbers and you follow the trends and bet accordingly. The key is collecting, analyzing and recording the results daily. Baseball is my favorite sport to bet and am looking forward to opening day. Good luck you.

I will run the parlay systems from opening day. Goal is 500 units.

I will be running the system as an 8 game progression using $740 as a bank. Game one will start with $10 as a starting bet going up to $250 if we reach game 8. The progression is 10-20-30-50-80-120-180-250.
There will be at least two parlay line running at all times. The first will be the dog parlays (mostly dogs, especially early). The second will be low odds faves or heavy faves on the run line. I might run a third parlay on totals.
I will personally be using a bankroll of $2960, 4 banks of $740. When we add $740 to the total bank, I will divide by 4 and reset the betting amounts. For example, if we are fortunate right from the start and add $740 to the bank we will be at $3700. Divided by 4 is $925 which would make the betting progression start at $12.50, $25, etc ending at $312.50. I would adjust down again if we lose an 8 game chase and bankroll warrants the reduction. Will keep raising as the bankroll grows.
A good read would be the Tony Stoffo Money Management system. I'm following the principles in that.

First, wanna say welcome home, DeGen. I learned alot from you and all your spreadsheets that I can make my own now. For everyone else, here's something I was back testing for NHL and am starting for MLB, if you wager a number of different systems. Instead of doing martingale for each individual chase, I do it as a daily thing. I play a % on each bet...say 10% per 100 overall units on each wager. Example: I have 5 games day 1. I go 4-1 with the loss being -150, so I'm up 35u with my bankroll at 135. Now on day 2, my unit is 13.5 per game. I have another day like day one...4-1, only loss -150... +30.25u (4w @13.5=50.5 - 20.25 (-150 @ 13.5)...bankroll at 165.25u. I take out 50u and bank it...never to be used. BR now at 115.25u, so my wager unit is now 11.5u. I did this for NHL...backtest... and I was able to recoup my initial bankroll with in a month (not the same percentage...lower). When a bad stretch came, I was using house money. Using the example above, I'm at 120 with 50 banked. My unit is 12 and I lose all 5 games @ -150. That's 90u lossed, so my BR is at 30 with 50 banked. My unit is 3u...I lose all that...I'm done, but only lost half of my BR for the season cause I banked. This example was only 4 days and a simple one at that but it really seems to work. I think it's better than the 35u to win 1u on a game E chase. Also, you would still be playing the chases, just not at the same risk. |
