I don't use BA Mark but and pretty experienced with Gruss and spreadsheets, i will send you an email and may be able to put something together for you, i see they have a 14 day free trial so i could get the feel for it.

I always say the key to success is adapting, i spend time on that other forum but have to say is mostly full of sheep, nothing much to learn over there and anything that can be taught falls mostly on deaf ears.

evajb, shaun, Mark, partypooper, entropy,
Great to see you guys are all still around. As far as how I am going on the punting game, its pretty much me just plodding away at it as usual. I've reduced my turnover to keep the swings to more of my liking. Where I was doing over 400 million per year I have scaled it back and I am doing around 60 Million a year. The profits are less but Ive also reduced my volatility significantly. I only bet a small number of my models now. I still have around 900+ models across various sports which show long term profits. If I bet them all I would still be turning over more than 400 million per year. This year (Jan-Apr) has been ok without anything to get excited about or to be disapppointed in. its been steady which is what I was aiming for. I am sitting at 40K profit (around 10K profit a month). Largest drawdown has been $8K. I have my personal tax ruling lodged so that 10K a month is tax free  Im glad to hear everyone is still going at it. There are lots of profitable angles out there. Keep looking each day and you will find them if you have enough data. I find them all the time, but they are generally too up/down for my risk profile. The trick isnt finding profitable angles, its finding ones you will bet through the ups and downs. I tend to frequent the slack channels now and less on forums. Ill be back here more around Melb Cup and hoping we have a thread again this year to help us get the winner..

On that - and in answer to the thread query - I still check in here most days but don't feel inspired or engaged enough to contribute much. My own analysis and betting goes in fits and starts, either kicked off by a Sportz tipping comp or via my own boredom - and usually is finished off for a while by a losing run!

Sorry guys I should have responded a bit earlier, great to hear the majority of us are still going at it even if we frequent the forums less.
Bit unfortunate there's not really any 'ideas' threads or vigorous discussion anymore as they used to be great to partake in and read over again and again. I still feel like you're the pinnacle UB of what i'd one day love to achieve. Don't think i've got the coding knowledge or enough motivation to learn it either, but if I could get even 5 or 10% of the way to what you produce i'd be happy. Finding pockets of profit I don't think is the hard part, but finding those pockets on a regular (daily/weekly) basis AND being able to scale them - thats the key. Not much point having a AFL player disposal model thats profitable betting with BFAIR when the market is pretty illiquid as it stands currently. I really wish more people were aware of how much better their odds could be when compared to the corporates so more money flowed through it. Updating their web layout would go a long way to helping that I feel.

I also haven't logged in for quite some time, but still check it out almost everyday. Me also still plodding along making a small % with some old staples, and of course always working on new projects, glad to hear some of the old faces still around.

Afternoon gents.
Not much to add here I'm afraid, also plodding along with few highlights! A bit surprised BF hasn't taken more advantage of multiple lockdowns, more people working at home and spending more time there. Pretty sure corporates will be lapping up this 'extra action', opportunity etc On a brighter note, have noticed one or two old angles still come up trumps from time to time. Anyway .. was by complete chance I saw this post and good to see some quality players / posters still ducking and diving in some shape or form. Might pop in a bit more often now ! Cheers LG

Hi LG, yes it was good in the old days lots of interaction, well I'm not sure what happened overall, but in my case it was quite clear cut. but I do miss the old banter, just as an afterthought, I've been doing particularly well with several Dutching plans..... hope I haven't put the Karbosh on that

LG great to see you're still around the traps.
Whilst it wasn't necessarily the most profitable or systematic approach, we had some good times with some of the old quaddie threads that were thrown together. Still think to this day that even basic speed mapping gives an edge when making selections, or at least helps to limit the losses.
