Let me summarize this experiment:
As I understood -
Historically teams over .600 at ASB lost 39 % of games remainder of season when favored.
This year:
LaD - 35.6%
Hou - 29.1%
Min - 33.9%
NYY - 34.8%
No wonder down 29.22 units.
The other dogs I played
265-91 = 174. 407-183 = 224
174/398 = 43.7%
29.22 - 18.68 = 10.53 Units Won
One lesson learned (it goes back to Knock stating 98% of us lose) maybe its a combination of poor money management and human nature - we want to play FAVORITES!!!! Who is willing to risk $100 on a +200 Dog or higher??? I played for peanuts so it was easy to make that risk.
Anyway, I’m disappointed in my September but for sure will only play Plus money next year, majority on Dogs with a RL sprinkled in as well. Like what Pound Foolish did this year.
BOL to all in post season and hope to be back next year
