Alberto’s hierarchy for beating betting cycles

Murphy’s law Balance law Systems laws logic

Murphy’s Law: Murphy’s Law states that anything that could go wrong, will go wrong. It applies to sports betting because of the cyclical nature of sports. After months of success, losses follow once a system goes public. You’re following a successful capper, but once you do he starts to lose. Beating Murphy’s Law is what sports investing is all about.

Balance law: With every up, there is an inevitable down. Persevering through drawdown periods and predicting when they will come is key to sports investing. After several days of winning, a down period is inevitable. The same is true of a winning handicapper’s system when it is struggling. When following a winning capper during a losing streak, abandoning the system results in net losses without the recovery period! Consistency is crucial. Logical betting without a winning system often fails. Z-Code Expert Systems are able to work through the cyclical nature of sports through a variety of filters and parameters.

For example, I started following WinningCapperY when he was on an incredible hot streak, as outlined in the chart above. As soon as I joined his service, Murphy’s Law kicked in and WinningCapperY cooled off. After a few losing days,

I questioned his system and abandoned his strategy. Once I dropped his system, it began to show signs of a recovery. I left the service and missed the winning bets that more than recouped our short-term losses. When amateur sports bettors jump from one system to the next, changing their approach each week, losses are inevitable. Consistency is the key to beating betting cycles!

How to apply these laws when picking a profitable system:

Look for a proven handicapper or winning system on a losing streak with the first signs of heating up. Be cautious of systems with lengthy winning streaks. Don't jump from system to system every week. Consistency is key to long-term profits.

The same principles tend to apply to individual teams. During the 2012 MLB season, the San Diego Padres were one of the streakiest teams in baseball. When the Padres were losing, they lost badly regardless of who they were playing. When they were hot, they could beat anyone. No professional teams are consistently bad throughout an entire season. The same is true of the league’s best teams as even the mighty New York Yankees get swept. Understanding the cyclical nature of sports is key to successful long-term investing.
