Why this made the card

  • The raw disagreement is +13.8 pts: our 61.1% against the market’s 47.4% with the juice removed
  • The edge survives the blend into the market: -2.5% expected value a unit at +100
  • It did not clear the stake floor after doubt: published as a No Play, graded, never staked

A big raw disagreement is not automatically a bet. The market gets a vote: after our number is blended into the devigged consensus and charged for doubt, what is left has to carry a full unit. Here it did not, so the pick published as a No Play and is graded for calibration only.

Published and graded, never staked.

Technical provenance

forecast e339b3c8-21b7-4b69-bfda-9d9f41d327cd; draw d811e0d0-0131-4a13-865b-6bda97341311

What can beat us

  • The market holds the other side at 52.6%; we are the disagreement, not the consensus
  • Break-even at +100 is 50.0%; our cushion past it is +11.1 pts
  • It settles over the full tournament; a missed cut ends it early and variance runs all four days

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