    tophat...you, along with Bodio and JTmonayyy are the cream of my covers crop...whatever ur doing keep it up...

    after following along for so long but mostly in "non-cluttering" mode (others call it "lurking", lol)...i still haven't been able to figure out what the two letter acronyms (RD, RF, HF, HD) stand for

    congrats on your excellent work!

    As we see today...Nothin' wrong with chalk...as long as the batting average of the picks (chalky or otherwise) is higher than the break-even batting average implied by the odds...in  other words, your cool "system of systems" is not designed to find winners today...they're designed to find VALUE (ie. to pick plays that'll give a W% better than 1/(odds in decimal format) over the long haul.

    I recall earlier in the thread Kreatture had some very good comments about not being too quick to "cull" or "eliminate" some poorly-performing elements. 

    I'd like to echo this...and ask you to KEEP TRACKING those elements...cuz systems (just like different divisions of a company) "wax and wane"/"progress and regress"
    thru time.  I'd suggest whenever you disqualify something due to dropping below some performance threshhold, you leave the door open for it to re-qualify.  This way you can "churn" your systems...track 'em all, but play only your best __% of them at a given time...I do something similar, very successfully with mutual funds, every 3 months re-aligning my portfolio to hold only the top ten in each class (see those that were relegated to buy those promoted, keeping those that hold their position.  This is exactly how EuroSoccerLeagues are run, too...promotion and relegation).  So something you've eliminated recently might earn its way back into your "real money" play-spinners, while the hot elements now can be dropped in the future if they get cold.

    On a related note...you might want to reconsider canning the 1* and 2* babies althogether, as they might carry just as much value edge (w% vs. w%-implied-by-book-odds) per $-bet as their higer starred cousins.  

    With regard to a good criterion for relegation/promotion of various elements of your system, rather than the obvious win%, I'd suggest "yield" ($-net-return/total$wagered), as it more directly correlates with the 'edges" your system is trying to exploit.

    Your overall methodology to date is VERY successful, tophat...even if all your star-weighted picks were bet flat at your avg #stars (about 3) and this were redefined as a unit...your current "mechanical system with occasional human-judgement overrides" is clearly outperforming (in terms of yield) the most consistent "flesh and blood" capper on covers (Bodio).

    My comments about finding a way to SYSTEMATICALLY decide what, among your many elements, to include/exclude at any given time (via periodically-applied qualification/disqualification criteria) is in the light of polishing the vehicle you've engineered to this point. 

    At the all-star break, do a good "what if" analysis of ALL the realistic elements of your system...including (especially) those things that you eliminated earlier, and compare all candidates for inclusion on the basis of yield to decide what to bring back, what to keep, and what to dump for the remainder of the season.

    This is a fascinating work in progress. Enough so to bring me out of my generally "lurking" mode (i prefer "non-cluttering" mode, lol).
