"I just said to use push %s with eWin% or actual win% to figure out at what point a line has moved too much. 1 pt on spreads (non pk,1,extreme faves) and 2 pts on totals is probably too much movement to tail, generally."
Thanks.
"I figure out expected win% by using my database of all CBB closing lines vs game results to determine push%. The difference between my line and the closing line, with the sum of the push% + 50% = eWin%."
Can I use the half point calc to determine push%? I don't follow how to determine eWin%. Why isn't it the number the half point calc spits out as 'win prob?' Could you give an example of how you figure eWin?
half point calculator is good enough for government work
it's not smoothed and off for a few numbers imo
example: Pretend I bet ShipIt St. -3.5. Say Pinny closes at -5.5 -105. My eWin% would be 50% + push of -4 + push of -5. SBR half point calculator gives you those numbers, but I use my own data for my calculations.

And obv the push of -4 and -5 are contingent upon games with closing lines ~ -5.5
ReplyDeleteI think the half point calculator factors this, but gets very imprecise several points away from the true line
