ACCUSCORE vs’ The Book

I recently came across the website http://accuscore.com Its a very interesting site that I’d like to share with those who are unfamiliar. It runs 10,000 simulations per each professional sporting event and publishes its results for free before game time. It also has a premium pay service but not interested right now. I have not run a lot of tracking on the site because of discovering it recently but last night was interesting. Basically the NBA over/under report was pretty helpful on a couple bets because of the difference between its over under number and the Books number. I was already thinking the Clippers and Mav’s would go over and AccuScore’s number was higher than the books so I took it. Same thing with Hornets Lakers game.

It’s obviously not a perfect system but every little bit helps before making an investment.

Here are today’s ACCUscore numbers.

Hmm seems somewhat accurate with some exceptions in my opinion. Thanks for sharing. I wouldn't recommend anyone use this though. Might be interesting to see how often it is right, and what parts of the season it usually nails the points 'n sitch.

[nick2060]

yea i like okc tommorrow so if they lose by 3 i'd be happy

[therber2]

Yeah, I'm actually leaning on them winning as a matter of fact. So I like goin' on a hunch, and then checking it with this thing for piece of mind... Do you pay for this piece of crap OP?

Charlotte at Cleveland UNDER 180.5

AccuScore has a total of 176.1 and the Book has total of 180.5 a difference of –4.4
Charlotte has gone under 4 of its last 5 on the Road
Cleveland has gone under 7 of its last 10 at home

Charlotte should be tired from beating the Celts in OT last night with a lower shooting percentage

Cleveland gives up the least amount of points per game in the league at 89.39

Leaning towards the under.

Do you guys have any thoughts?

accuscore is free software unless you want to pay for more bells and whistles which isnt really worth it. This is not really used a betting tool typically but more as a stat based tool. It could be used for capping but the results it spits out I wouldn't put a whole lot of faith in. It could get some results right but I dont think that you wanna go putting the house on it.

[therber2]

goin over. i think both teams will be juiced. where did you get the accuscore info you posted by the way? Link?

If you go to www.accuscore.com and click on NBA in the navigation bar you will see each of todays games listed on the left hand side. Just click the game you want to preview and it will bring you to that. I cant find a page with all the totals together nicely so I just copied and pasted them into a document.

Thanks brutha! I'll check it out.

[therber2]

Man. I've been doing well. This thing is just going to make me second guess myself now. Hehe. Seems too easy.

[homerbush]

there is a poster on this site with the handle accuscoresucks so maybe you should get his input about that tool.

[therber2]

public is on GSW winning the game lol. I agree with + pts on the spread

[therber2]

gl guys

GL with what sir?

[Wilforth]

Charlotte should be a bit tired and won't play much D. If Cleveland maintain a good lead, they too won't bother much about playing D. They'll only try to outscore Charlotte. All that bodes well for the Over. I initially thought that game would go Under, but I'm now for the Over.

[homerbush]

Not really. The money line percentages are always skewed because a lot of people won't play heavy favorites on the moneyline. So a lot of the time you will get like 96% of the people on the big dog moneyline. Does not mean anything.

[therber2]

Yeah just to be clear. None of my picks are or ever will be based on accuscore. I thought it was funny that it showed the public going so heavy on GSW winning straight up. I'm doing a small wager that GSW covers, but that's it.

Today I agree with the accuscore BOB's and CLEV point spread probability, but not with the UO. The game will be an over.

johnnyP - Are you going to continue this thread? I've been looking at accuscore the past couple days and some of their lines have been pretty dead on as far as the spread is concerned. I don't solely use it as a way of handicapping but I take a look at it every now and then and see what they have.
