Ok so I just spent today fixing what I found out was a VERY faulty assumption for my AFL bets so they should be better in the future. Can't go into specifics here but I was doing something very wrong specific to AFL sides (not totals) and that should be fixed moving forward. Stupid error prob cost me a couple units EV this AFL season so far have ended up on the wrong side of a couple games because of it but w/e all good onto the next

I did like Roosters -11.5 but woke up to the line being gone today which is disappointing so didn't get it but if anyone can get it at sub 12 it's good but I can't. I might find some other spot after lineups are out now idk

Nothing yet will post spots as I get them

i haven't modeled for sports betting yet but am fairly accomplished in dfs and my god, the amount of times i was inputting the wrong data feed, double counting some issues, multiplying instead of subtracting, etc...

it's tough to spot the errors unless there's an obviously off result and I can often go weeks until noticing the symptoms that something may not be right and then i pop open the hood and see the horror of knowing how much money i'd wagered on those errors - even more discouraging knowing i had the errors and still won and really makes me wonder how much of my model is just common sense combined with luck rather than advanced edge gaining wizardy

Taking a couple Super Rugby spots to start the week off

QLD Reds +1.5 -111
NSW Waratahs -9.5 -111

Reds should be favs over the Rebels even away and the market tends to agree as it's moving that way and the Waratahs are playing a side that was stripped of it's Super Rugby status and is only back due to Covid making the comps all same-country ones. Steaming in a bunch there so will get on Tahs early.

Should be the competition favs right now and it's on neutral ground.

GL Reds and Wests Tigers today

I got some Reds game u54.5 but it was an off line and quickly moved so won't count it for thread

Warriors steamed hard today but missed it; i'm a Titans fan anyway so get to enjoy the game I guess w no bet

Also adding Collingwood Magpies vs Hawthorn Hawks u120.5 -130 and Melbourne Storm -1.5 -110

Adding Port Adelaide Power +1.5 +100 for Sunday's AFL, fine at -110 and I did get some at that price but also got some at +100 which is still available on a major aus book or ML at evens is fine too.

Also adding Canterbury Bulldogs +5.5 -110 to middle out of my Brisbane Broncos -4; Kotoni Staggs is a huge out and I lean Bulldogs side now probably at the line but will just middle it for now will rebet the Dogs side tomorrow if I decide to, not sure yet gonna wait for final squads

Adding Hurricanes -5.5 -111 for Super Rugby on Sunday as well

Also Munster is out after initially thinking he's a chance to play and Vunivalu out too; Munster hurts as Storm would have been -4 or so with him in, but holding my -1.5 for now, market stable at -1.5 etc and I still lean towards them winning without him, Canberra have been bad since ironically their last good game was beating Melbourne earlier in the year but think Melb get the job done tomorrow.

Reds game was pretty epic today some major swings and it ended in a draw after extra time glad I got the +1.5 as they closed favs. Really should have won quite easily though, had two players sin binned, threw an intercept try, missed two penalty goals and gave up an unnecessary possession at end of first half that led to a penalty goal for the Rebels. Glad they salvaged a draw from being down 10 late. After seeing the game though i'd snap rebet the ML at -150 in a rematch next week also on neutral ground.

68-45-1 +9.28u

Wests Tigers L -1u
Reds +1.5 W +1u
Coll/Haw u120.5 W +1u

70-46-1 +10.28u

Pending

Waratahs ML -323
Waratahs -9.5 -111
Broncos -4 -110 /Middled with Bulldogs +5.5 -110 to probably lose rake
Storm -1.5 -110
Hurricanes -6.5 -110 and Hurricanes -5.5 -111
Crusaders -7.5 -116
Port Adelaide Power +1.5 +100

Added Brisbane Broncos/Canterbury Bulldogs o37.5 -114

Feels so wrong to be on a Bulldogs game over lol but they should score a bit vs Broncos d and Broncos should score a bit too and 37.5 is a low total w new rules and two teams with iffy defenses. This is the sort of game that could be 28-20 or 18-10 and nothing would surprise me really

Adding more Port Adelaide +0.5 -111 they're in to favs now and been told by some sharp guys they're def favs tomorrow

Taking Carlton vs Western Bulldogs u114.5 -110 (rain expected, will likely close lower, will try and sell if it somehow isn't gonna rain)

Market loves St George tomorrow but I just refuse to bet on the Dragons vs Manly even with all of Manly's outs so gonna leave it.

Other games TBD we'll see

edit: removed a Hurricanes bet I already had didn't realise
