Introducing the "Green Flamingo" Model
We often hear from our users, "The Outlier Hunter model is great, but I wish I could filter out DFS sites and softer books."
Enter the "Green Flamingo" model, an iteration of the Outlier Hunter model that uses a proprietary blend of books based on Optimal's learnings across 100s of thousands of bets.
In the last week, Optimal's Green Flamingo model has crushed homers. Over 115 picks, it's up 38.3 units using a fixed bet sizing method. But notice… in that timeframe, the win-loss record is 20-95 — only a 17% win percentage. Remember, as +EV bettors, we're looking for opportunities that are profitable over the long run. We want to make more money than we lose — not win more often than we lose.
Probability is difficult to get a feel for, especially in the short run. Patience and trust in math are key.
We’re excited for you to check it out! It’s live now in-app and on our website.
