    Default Dr. Bob's Theories

    Did he ever release his math model to anyone, about how he determines actual point spreads? Also i read his money management section, and it makes alot of sense to me. . . Any one else follow his stragties? . .

    Ganch, Do you know his math model, or something close to it that factors in Fundamental Analysis, Value Handicapping, and Technical Analysis? . .

    There is a couple of guys who have "cracked" the good doctors math model. The release plays under What would Bob say. I don't think anyone else has done it to my knowledge.

    I cracked up his model for this year only. It's based on a coin system. Heads or Tails I believe is the name of the computer subroutine he uses. Ganch may want to elaborate on that.

    I am not Ganch but I have taken more than enough stats classes to know this answer.

    Because he is making predictions about outcomes of games, the most likely statistical tool he is using his mulitvariate regression. In reality, it's not even that hard. He just runs a bunch of models, controls for key confound variables, and then adjusts based on a few things.

    That's just my guess.....

    You're a lot closer than you probably realize.
