hi. can u tell me anything about the predictability of the over/under-estimations? is there anything like a performance analysis like it is for the 1x2-estimations?

reason is the big difference between the under-probality and the real odds of the bookies (the probality seems to be much bigger than the probability given by the bookies).

sorry for my english, regards,
assi

Generic 1X2 distribution shown in the performance panel is tightly bonded to other related distributions: correct scores, AHO, and totals (over/under). The more accurate computed 1X2 is, the more accurate correct scores, AHO, and totals are.

Using computed 1X2 distribution in Performance analysis tool, you can indirectly determine when over/unders are higher or lower than the true values as follows.

1. Choose the Draws line in the performance table.
2. Compare Relative rate % for computed probabilities (column 5) with that of the number of games (column 3).
3. If the value in column 5 is greater than value in column 3, then true value of Total is higher than value displayed in Odds Wizard. This means that value of Over (>) must be less, and the value of Under (<) must be greater. And otherwise.

sorry, but i did not get that

how can the draws-line tell about the performance of over/under-performances?

e.g. for the NHL (the fair odds of the over-odds seem to be much too high ...):

draws: rel. rate 18,3% (column 5)
number of games (column 3): 519 (8%)

so, as u said, the value of over must be indeed less then stated, but why?what if oddswizard computed a lower rate of draws, but all games end like 5-4 or something? then the value of over must be higher ... or did i understand something completely wrong?!

thx for ur reply and ur nice "little" program

up ...

alex, i still did not get this ... could u explain once more, plz?

thx, assi

ps.: another question according under/over: what is the score prediction in the odds converter section worth? u cant predict the correct score just from the odds, can u?

pps.: and finally another idea: would it be possible to integrate a performance analysis for the "correct score" and the "over/under"-section?
