    Playing lately with sdql database and here are some interesting results so far:  Dogs of up to +110 on RL gave from 2008 a lot of profit (hitting about 70%). You would be about +5,000$ if you played from 2008. Will look for other interesting stats, contribution is appreciated

    This is of course for the underdogs on the road. The last season was great

    SU:    73-64 (0.36, 53.3%)      avg line: 107.2 / -117.3      on / against: +$1,442 / -$2,175      ROI: +10.5% / -13.5%
    RL:    98-37 (1.74, 72.6%)      avg line: -195.3 / 180.2      on / against: +$2,495 / -$3,100      ROI: +9.5% / -23.0%

    72%, I may give a try to this, a lot of chalk to lay with RL but if this success percentage can be sustained, that would be great, otherwise I will simply stop if the loss is -$500.

    Got 2nd system to try, bet an underdog on ML (+130 to +140) regardless of whether at home or away. This has given + years from 2007-2013. For today it would be SD and HOU possibly.
    Will play System # 2 starting from tomorrow.
    Now on to System #1 here are the plays for tonight
    All will be risking 1u to win 0.5u
    Atlanta +1.5
    SF +1.5

    2007 - 2013 about +6,800$ with not losing in any year in this period for System 2. That looks quite strong All plays will be risking 1u to win at +130 to +140.

    Yes that's correct! Will post all system plays in here throughout the season. If I win 5u for each system I may quit, I will be satisfied

    I'm assuming the odds used for these results were using a dime line?  If that's the case, anyone who uses a book that doesn't use dime lines needs to make adjustments to the dog line in order to come up with the correct plays.  This is critical in getting the proper plays and results.  Also, I'm certain all the odds used were closing lines.  Therefore, in order to achieve the proper results, you must wait until game time to make the wagers.  Good luck with this.  Both systems were perfect tonight.

    I'm using https://www.sportsbookreview.com/betting-odds/mlb-baseball/ to find out on the line as it compares different books and yes I wait how the line moves. Yesterday SF moved from opening at -112 which did not qualify as a play but was +109 later on and did qualify. I am basing on the stats from killersports service and don't know how they come up with the lines so I wrote to them and asked, hopefully they will reply or anyone knows on what basis do they determine the lines? I will usually wait to 7 pm cause this is the time I need to go to sleep, hopefully this does not affect the further line moves significantly

    I am interested to see how this system 1 strategy system plays out for this year as I have given up on betting the run line for a long while now.

    When I would bet the runline in past years I would usually take the home team minus the 1.5 and get plus money on my bet.

    I would lose dismally, time after time. The only home team that ever won me a few bets was when Boston was hot at home a few years ago.

    In my experience, it cost me lots of cash to bet the r/l taking plus money. Your stats show that by taking the 1.5 runs and laying big vig is the only way to go to have a winning year...We shall see...

    Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I also do not like to bet on such chalk bets like -200 but it has proven to be profitable, with last year over 72% of bets winning, so there is some potential even in chasing these bets, however I did not track how it went in the previous seasons. This System 1 and System 2 are backed by the stats so they should hit, which does not mean that they must. I did not find a trend for RL-1.5 which will give +money bets, but there may be such one, you just need to filter the past results with the proper criteria. I may look for such a trend when I have time.

    I do believe I will stick to taking the 1.5 runs and laying the big juice since I never ever won taking + money R/L bets...SF covers today and now on to Boston for system 1 to start the season perfect.

    Well, System 1 was 3-0 yesterday and is 7-0 now. Picked up 1.5 unit, and now is (+3.51) on the season.
    A different thing with System 2, yesterday was 0-3 and is now 0-4 but it should bring some profit hitting less than 50%, we shall see.Now it is -2.00 units.

    Jimmy, we will see how it goes, so far it has been perfect, plus RL money bets are tough, indeed, but maybe there are some stats to support it, just need to dig deeper into.

    Like this. To recap, you are going to use odds close to game time and not to much earlier. No playing early.
