fading the public
figured i'd post this here, I was thinking....if you find all the games that the public is on 65% or more, and put 50 on the other side of all the games for a whole year, wouldnt you come out on top? obviously there is no right answer and anything can happen, but the public is wrong so much that i would think it would be a great investment. let me know what you guys think, im sure people have talked about doing that but i dont know anyone who actually has tried that.Last edited by TheBeholdah; 03-21-2007, 11:35 AM.Tags: None

i used to run a system for nfl games. If you tease the opposite of all the teams being bet at 65% and over it hit at over 70% for 2 straight seasons. I dont have the hard evidence because my computer recently crashed, but i tracked it and recorded the plays for those 2 seasons.

Tonight, if you had blindly faded the "public" on any NBA play over 60% on one side (based on sportsbook.com), you would have played:
Sacremento +14 (LOSS)
Indiana +2 (WIN)
Toronto -3 (WIN)
Philly -5 (WIN)
Boston +9 (LOSS)
Cleveland -11 (WIN)
Detroit +6 (WIN)
3 other games in progress

:uhu: I try to set my own lines before see them, & look for reasons as to why they may have added/less value. In the past I relied on fading the public a bit too much, like JoePa said you still gotta call em like you see em

How anyone here doesn't consider themselves to be a part of the public baffles me.

Murphy's Law in action for you!The gambling gods are smarter than the public!

What you want to do is check out lines that the public is a heavy consensus on and the line swings the other way. Preferably low spread games.

It'd work for a profit when you get into the 70%+ range. Im almost sure of it. (with nba and nfl)
Not sure about college.
Also, you'd need a fat bankroll to sustain periods of downtimes. Lotsa highs and lows in that I'd think. (good days and bad)
