...although that doesn't really apply to this type of 'cover-all' strategy.

Depends where you bet. Looks like Vegas was pretty split as some had 5 others 5.5. I honestly didn't even notice that. I had the over 5 at -150.

Not sure how it would work in MLB. Hockey seems to be easy since each game is either 5 or 5.5 with the ocassional 6. MLB is all over the map especially based on ballpark and starting pitchers. MLB can go from 6 or less to 11 or more.

todays results.
3-3-1.
That 6.0 - 6.5 line sounds interesting. As does taking the overs for everything!
I think I may have missed a day in there, I'll try to record daily results just as a way for everyone to have a look.
Since I have started tracking on the 7th Nov I have -5.31 units. This number may be slightly out due to line differences and a possibly inaccuracy with my record keeping for Saturdays game due to travel.

I, as someone else said, saw this at the beginning but wanted a few weeks gone before coming back to it.
I didn't do this on the backtest (like I said it was REAL simple) but you could also split part of the loses and add some to other lines, so any one line doesn't get too heavy.
@Louris54...for the Alt PL, how did they play it? Always under, or as is here...6 (5) play over and 6.5 (5.5) play under?

Also, when I had 1 number left, I took that and added it to a 2,3,or 4 number line. I was real free on how I did it. If one team is doing well while another isn't, let the first team clear the lines.
Dan, why would you stop after 5 line "clears" when there's so much season left? With the example I did it above, I think I'd stop when all lines are at 5 numbers.

What they did was the same thing here team wise but theyd play the alternative under 6 or 6.5 line for every game. Very high winning percentage but obviously u gotta deal with some juice. In fact theres no labby but they chase each team to go under the alt under 6/6.5 line up to 5 games. No team has lost more then 4 in a row so far and its up well over 300 units so far. Personally to cut down on juice i like to do 2 team parlays where ill take a under 6.5 game i like, along with a game i think has no shot of going to overtime for a "no overtime" bet....this way youll get even money on your bet. I would chase it for up to 4 games/days
im playing it too. i have a line for each team but only 3 games.i take the loss and spread it with the 30 teams its been good so far..im using my book lines ,not covers i have chicaco with 14 as the best and calgary with 6 as the worse

Cause DeGen is AWESOME on doing formulas for spreadsheets, I was able to do a quick backtest on the 2011-12 season for this. Mind you that this just for W/L record, not the labby line.
At the 5.5 (and up) line and betting under, it's 473-422, and betting over at 5, it's 146-143. Being that we don't do straight up but on the labby, I think that's good, but I'm an amatuer with the lines...but it's over 50%.
Gonna do the Alt PL now.

For the Alt PL, I have 2 sets of numbers, one for all games with PL at 6 and one for 6.5. Unless, the Alt PL is one more than the regular line, I do not know what the Alt PL is for each game.
Anyway, with the Alt PL set at 6, it's 684/403 betting under....at 6.5 it's 827/403. Not too bad.
Now, when do the Alt PL's come out?

U mean the alternative under 6/6.5 total??? Puckline is something totally different. Maybe i misunderstood u.
Anyway the alternative totals dont come out until the morning of the games on 5dimes.
And yeah its a pretty damn high winning %. But like i said with the juice, a losing streak would b scary

Yep, that's what I meant. But what I would do is what I stated in posts #63/64.

Yeah those are sick numbers...nice job buckeye. Im thinking maybe doing a 3-4 game chase for a team to go under the alt 6/6.5 line might be profitable. Havent gotten to all the teams yet but i just looked at most of the teams daily game totals and no one has gone over the 6/6.5 more then 2 games in a row. Obviously losing a chase would be a big chunk of units since each game has an average of -200 or so on the line BUT youd be racking up units like crazy if you're playing every teams games. Is there any way to backtest past years in an fast efficient way buckeye?
