***The Knuckleballers Computer Based System Tracking Thread***

[The Knuckleballer]

Over the last four years, I have developed a computer based, statistical system designed to extrapolate value in Vegas’ lines. The system enables me to eliminate the lines that have little to any value and exploit the lines with a high probability of winning. Also, the system allows me to have an objective opinion and it mitigates the human element of handicapping. It is important for you to understand that this is a marathon not a sprint. My system gets stronger and stronger as the season wears on, because there is more and more relevant data to utilize. Also, money management is a key to long term success. My system does not produce “1000**** Triple Platinum Picks of the Century,” but it does produce consistent winners that help you add to your bankroll. Personally, I recommend a percentage based money management system where top plays equal 3% of your CFB bankroll and regular plays equal 1.5% of your CFB bankroll. Using this strategy it is important to recalculate your CFB bankroll on a weekly basis. It is unlikely that you will ever bet more than 20% of your CFB bankroll in one weekend using this strategy, because my system typically produces 5-7 picks a week. For tracking purposes, my top plays will equal 2 Units and regular plays will equal 1 Unit with an assumed 10% vig added to all losses. I encourage you to follow this thread throughout the season and provide pertinent feedback. GL to all and get used to winning on a consistent basis!! Trust me, it’s fun!!

This week I have 6 picks. 3 top plays and 3 regular plays. I will post the finalized picks later this evening. To those that wonder why I am just now posting this season, the answer is that the system requires a minimum of 3 games worth of data prior to producing any winners. GL and enjoy winning!!!

Sounds cool. I know a couple guys who do the same. The thing is a cash cow for totals.

Looking forward to these plays.

Please tell me that you're not going to try to bust out and sell anything here though.

Luck played a major roll in tonights Colorado cover, but in order to get lucky you must put yourself in the right position. That's what this system does. It puts you in a position to take advantage of the many opportunities Vegas presents to you. GL and I encourage you to continue watching and winning throughout the season!!!

(Cheers to a 2-0 Night!!!)
