Posted before kickoff. Graded by the close.

Every ticket goes up with a timestamp before the game starts, gets shopped across three books, and grades itself against the closing line. Wins and losses post the same way.

How this page works

  1. 01Posted before kickoffEach ticket gets a server timestamp the moment it is logged. The card shows how long before kickoff it went up. Nobody can edit that number, including us.
  2. 02Best number, shoppedEvery leg shows DraftKings, FanDuel and theScore Bet as they stood at posting, with the best price marked. You should never take a worse number than the one Sean found.
  3. 03Graded against the closeResults grade themselves when games go final. Closing line value is the headline stat because it measures the process, not the bounces.
  4. 04Losses post like winsNothing is deleted. A voided ticket stays up, labeled, and out of the totals. Entertainment parlays are posted too, and kept out of the record.

For scale: the best public handicappers land between 54 and 57 percent against the spread over a full season. Stakes and results are shown in units, where 1u is one standard stake.
