OH oh a new shiny kid in on the block

There is a new guy that is getting all the attention on the Facebook forum. He's won 12 in a row betting 12 units on some games and 2 on other games.  Not sure I understand that whole concept - seems like playing with fire to me.

It's called variance I believe

In response to knowitall  Thank you - With all systems it's all about when to pull the plug before losing all your money if/when it fails.  

Not really at that point yet.  Looking at this weeks losses - it's call variance and if you don't have the balls to deal with variance you should not be sports wagering.

So far - lost a bunch this week but still up 53 units which is 53 more than 90% of sports handicappers.  I'm fine - disappointed but fine.

Shits hitting the fan with tragic losses

I went to bed feeling good, Utah had control Goldens State was doing well and Vegas migh hold on to with the +1.5   BUT NOOOOOOO 

28 foot 3 point with no time killed GS, Vegas game up a power play goal and Utah was outscored 10-4 in the final 1.5 minutes - a swing of 4.33 units.   grrrr

That even sucked worse

SO!  The 2nd and 3rd worst days.  An old guy once told me (I'm his age now) that this is where handicappers really  . . . . . . and then I forgot the rest.   

I don't see anything inherently wrong with the systems besides the losing part. The AI for the NHL ML is tightening as it should. And frankly I need to look deeper in the NHL ML. Should I dump it all together? and just go with the PL? That is where my head is at at the moment.

 Looking at the losing picks in the PL and NBA it's not like these are iffy picks in any way.  

NHL PL the +1.5s had their way last night. I'l looking for cracks in the systems and just don't see any.

WELL - that sucked

WELL - that was the 3rd worst day in 60 days for the combined systems - After a deep dive into what happened I have come up with a theory - it was a bad night. 

The chalk storm in the NBA has ended. The NBA system did not have any issues when the dog storm wa in vogue so we shall see.  I'm as curious as anybody. 

Systems have to go through the entire gamut of weirdness and every time the league as a whole changes the systems need to be watched for signs of breaking.  This is why most systems fail, you never start a system in a losing streak so when leagues change you need to make sure the AI can see this. The NBA is really aggressive at the moment, let's see what happens in the next week.

The one thing I have noticed is that when the systems lose they don't lose a LOT but when they win they CAN have great days.   Did that that string of losing -1.5 puck lines though.   
ans speaking of puck lines they seem to be making a small comeback - or looking like it
