Using Analytics to Inform Gambling Picks (Week 12)

Last Week’s Results

Ever since we profited 291 units in Week 6, we’ve had no luck. We’ve had a few bad weeks in a row, so I’m feeling like we’re due.

  • Last Week’s Results: -104.74 units (-$10,474 if betting with $100 units)
  • YTD: -192.82 units (-$19,202)
