Why this made the card

  • The raw disagreement is +2.6 pts: our 32.8% against the market’s 30.2% with the juice removed
  • The edge survives the blend into the market: -3.0% expected value a unit at +230
  • It did not clear the stake floor after doubt: published as a No Play, graded, never staked

Published and graded, never staked.

Technical provenance

forecast d19fd075-a650-4bc4-bfa7-062d68103d71; draw a4950b87-0f4a-4347-bf33-60ac5c61fe2e

What can beat us

  • The market holds the other side at 69.8%; we are the disagreement, not the consensus
  • Break-even at +230 is 30.3%; our cushion past it is +2.5 pts
  • One round of golf settles it; eighteen holes of variance can erase an edge this size without the number being wrong

Edges this size lose often. The record, not any one pick, is the product.
