@Ryan I asked it to give me the 5 best bets given the data I had entered. It asked me a few times if I would like to include this or that and I said yes, so go pretty specific in the end...This is what it gave me, only the 5th came in. No money lost though. May well have strayed from the data given now I think about it a bit more...
-
@Tony-Hastie Oh dear! What did you ask it to do?
I have used it to find me first half goals and it worked pretty well.
It's also done well with the unders more time decay there than anything
-
@Ryan I tried it yesterday, 1 from 5
-
@GREGORIOS-KARASHIALIS Yep I did, I used the CSV at the weekend and it worked but it didnt work today so used copy and paste.
-
@Ryan i jujst highlighted it from the Pages sheet and copy and paste, is that what you did?

I put the ratings into ChatGPT at the weekend and asked it to find me the games for each day which had the best chance of a first half goal and then rank them in order of probability for a FHG.
I then narrowed down manually to 5 selections with odds of 1.45 or more, it hit 4/5 lol
Another one I tried yesterday was to give me a list of 100 bets which there was a high probability of under 4.5 goals, I wanted to see if it could create a list of 100 bets to follow with £10 stake all rolling to the next one, it did create me a list. I haven't tested many yet mind.
Those ratings Adam created are amazing, even better if you get ChatGPT to give you some ideas and angles.
-
Shame I picked this league for a SHG in two of the games... -
A few to narrow down today but amongst my 02.5 split stake will be:
Wolfsburg vs Leverkusen
Freiburg vs Heidenheim
Bolton vs Crawley
TNS vs Penybont
Benfica vs Moreirense -

@Alastair-Todd I always think with those leagues it must be tough to have a day job then go and play a match at your best.
Agreed Martin, especially when many of the multi-millionaire professionals in the PL can't even hit the back of the net!

@Martin said in *****New Football Thread*****:
@Alastair-Todd be very careful in small leagues like that, from what I understand most teams aren't even fully professional.
They were certainly amateurs last night Martin!

Wow, just wow!
Coleraine v Cliftonville: "100% of their match history had over 1.5 goals" in the stats e-mail.
Today: 5 goal attempts and not a single shot on goal - IN THE WHOLE MATCH!!!
What a nonsense.
NI is another league which for me has really poor results in the overs.
-
@Alastair-Todd, I had it too, got in at 1.5, was feeling pleased with myself oh well there's always India
