re: NFL betting models: useful or mostly BS?
Posted by LSUTIGERS74 on 9/16/26 at 12:11 pm to LegendInMyMind
To you original question, yes people will pay for picks in the NFL, I know this because I run my own website with subscribers. The problem with NFL and NBA for generating models is the model is already made up of public information the books already know and have priced in, the key is finding niche edges within that information. And the most important part that you will find when following X picks is most people have no reliable backtest or leaked backtest (AI is notorious for this) and haven't run there actual edge against a randomized/null control test. When you think you have found an edge with your NFL have AI run this test on your backtest data, if it beats the random pull test then you have something. I have written several articles about this but can't post my site here as will get whacked/anchored.

There are games like this every year, especially ones with very heavy public betting tickets/money percentages, I try to stay away from those. To be honest if you play the market, it is very similar and always manipulation.
NFL Week 1 Betting
Posted by LSUTIGERS74 on 9/9/26 at 9:42 am
Not much movement on the line tonight for Patriots vs Seahawks in last week, only a small 0.5 move in Patriots favor but price went from -110 to -120 so books charging for it. Total stayed at -44.5 all week - flat.
Anyone think this clears the under in 1st game of season?

Liking GT to cover -6.5 on Colorado
Model has stayed consistent on this one since opening lines.
Also ran edges for all FBS-FBS unders in Week 1 - 58.62% win rate vs BE 52.38% on 21'-25' seasons.
Would link my work but got whacked last year.

re: With college football starting Saturday what are your tips for betting on College Football

So why aren’t people successful just always betting the opposite here?
Because it is difficult to determine what is to good to be true. From backtesting 2016-2025 with numerous testing data sets I can tell you the markets in FBS and even FCS has pricing of spreads extremely accurate.

In short don't bet unless you are prepared to lose the money! I have my own prediction algo's and I can tell you from over 35 different scenarios (all killed with random runs) looking for an edge, nothing beats the market consistently. I will have one season with a nice edge then backtest against 3-5 years of data and it has failed everytime. Some good articles out there about modeling.

I would be extremely weary of these algo firms claiming to have an AI edge. As I posted in the day trading noob thread, I have backtested the majority of the edge thesis (29 to be exact) thru multiple years of futures and options data and all have been null in finding a predictable edge for direction. Most don't backtest against sham (i.e. randomized points) to invalidate their own proposed edge and claim huge ROI.

One comment on day trading as a beginner with all the AI stuff out there now, it is extremely helpful in determining magnitude of a move, gamma regime, and risk management but so far I have found no indicators/data pulls that have backtested over at least 5 years that can show directional prediction. This is also considered the holy grail of financial markets to be able to front run a move before it happens.
On my own journey I have tested pretty much every major statistical catagory, research paper theory, or social media trader setup over the full databento historical CME and OPRA datasets to no avail (29 of 29 kills on backtested theories, in short market is priced extremely accurate).

re: Are these laser guns real, and can some random arsehole buy them as easily as this looks?
Posted by LSUTIGERS74 on 5/7/26 at 10:48 am to teke184
I work in high powered lasers for oil field, this is entirely possible if that battery has enough juice (amps). Guessing it has a pretty short window to fire at enough power. We run 20kW at 480v and 80-100FLA for continuous power (would take about 10 tesla power packs for an 8 hour days run time)

You are correct, I run a product development group for downhole oil and gas and in about 4 hours worth of time in the evening have built an engineering admin system that does all the 3D bill of materials and sends out for quotation to machine shops then analyzes the best options for time/cost, also built a full scale Field Ops AI Service Manual for our field operations that techs can look at to determine repairs or SOP's. It is moving very fast with multiple AI platforms now offering full agentic AI. I use Claude and Manus the most.
Next up is I am working on it to generate manufacturing CAD models with GDT from 3D models/assemblies, the process normally take 2-3 weeks for drafter to generate a full set of 50-75 drawings and think this can take about a day of run time to convert then will still need to be checked by final manager

Used AI for college sports betting this past year and picked 68.6% winners. Took me a bit to fine tune the right input algorithm, or may have been over 70%.
BabyTac - did the same thing last year for CFB (was just above 70% win rate) and now for ncaam (a little over 60%), nba and nhl, if open would enjoy comparing notes on what you setup for AI algo? can email me at scott@quaizimo.com
re: OT Gambling Degenerates do you use a site for recommendations?
Posted by LSUTIGERS74 on 2/20/26 at 10:24 am to caill430
I built a line prediction / sports analytics site last year to educate bettors on how to pick rather than using gut and intuition, I am using AI and custom algorithms to generate predictions. I would link it but I will get whacked again. I created a free TD username for the community.

re: What’s your bet on the Miami -3.5 vs ole miss +3.5 line?
Posted by LSUTIGERS74 on 1/7/26 at 1:00 pm to West Monroe
My AI algo model has this leaning to Miami -3.5. with sharp divergence building on the money side for Miami to cover (i.e. sharps money outweighing public betting sentiment)
re: Vegas installed Bills as a road favorite vs Jags
Posted by LSUTIGERS74 on 1/7/26 at 12:58 pm to H-Town Tiger
Bills back to -1, public betting has slight divergence on money for Bills currently, this will probably build to a larger divergence as game gets closer.

I agree with this
It is still free trial for now, haven't decided when i will pull it back but really appreciate everyone that has taken a look at it, shame I got anchored on this thread and you have to go to page 4 to find it. this week I will lock in the tiers on Saturday morning around 10am to prevent it throwing any games out last minute due to updating spreads from Vegas last minute. This changed a few picks way to late to readjust. Also my twitter feed has the free CBB picks until I get the algo on the site.It is even more picky on the games, maybe 1 a day if not at all.

Depending on the update time it went 5-4 or 5-3 on Tier A, it threw out the San Jose State game at last minute on spread change (and they got smoked) I was 5-4 because I had already taken pick. Elite went 3-2 and tier c fades only 3-3
re: Sports Betting AI Algorithm Prediction
Posted by LSUTIGERS74 on 11/15/25 at 12:05 pm to LSUTIGERS74
actually just ran a parlay analysis from backtest using 3 game strategy and elite was a better historical win rate with 38% using just elite. The probability games from 57-59% performed better than large prob games.
re: Sports Betting AI Algorithm Prediction
Posted by LSUTIGERS74 on 11/15/25 at 11:12 am to LSURoss
I don't disagree, the action plays are fun! If I was parlay today, I would take a top two probabiilty tier A for home team picks (highest historical win rate) and top one or two tier B picks (they are always home favorites as that is part of filter).

The Tier C Fade on Troy at my lunch as well, these are just bonus bets to try so I only play 1U if I play at all, last week I should have played because they went 5-1 (63.4% WR on 2025)
For reference last week I didn't play any of the Tier C Fades, I only played Tier A (went 4-2, betting 2U as these are higher prob.) and Elite (went 2-2, betting 1U). I would post my results but can't figure out how to post a image without twitter/X link (tried google drive url but that didn't work).
What's interesting is the Troy vs OD game flipped to a Tier A at last minute with closing line movement and covered with OD pick (I wish I had seen it in time as I had already taken the Troy fade). This is one of the nuances of the system with betting earlier with lines that are still moving.

I don't do parlays on this system but would have done well last week starting 3-0 on Tier A. It isn't designed to take filter parlays but if you do, use home favorites only and Tier A games.
