1 Germany vs Curaçao World Cup 2026-06-10 BET Curaçao Win 34.00 43.50 -0.6pp 85 🔥
Entry 111d ago
34.00
→
Expected Closing
43.50
Expected CLV -0.6pp
Why

Curaçao presents a significant model edge with a closing_edge_pp of 31.3 and a model probability of 34.24% compared to the market's 2.94%. The sharp-led signal and sharp repricing market state indicate potential undervaluation. Main risk: Extremely low market probability suggests a high likelihood of the bet losing, but the value justifies the risk.

Expected Closing
36.50
Expected CLV -0.6pp
Why

Cape Verde Islands have a closing_edge_pp of 30.91 and a model probability of 34.24%, far exceeding the market's 3.33%. The model-led market state supports this value play. Main risk: The odds reflect a very low implied probability, indicating a high chance of losing despite the edge.

⚠️ Major Price Change
⚠️ Major Price Change
Entry 111d ago

Expected Closing
2.15
Expected CLV +22.1pp
Why

USA's market probability of 24.39% is only marginally lower than the model's 34.24%, and the closing_edge_pp is just 9.85. This suggests limited value, and the model edge is not strong enough to justify a bet. Main risk: The model could be underestimating the USA's chances slightly, but the fade aligns with the lack of significant edge.

Why This Matters

Every bettor has a theory.

  • Follow the market.
  • Fade the market.
  • Trust only high-confidence picks.
  • Look for recurring patterns.

We track each approach publicly and measure the results over time.

The goal is simple:

Which ideas actually beat the market?

Example Betting Hypotheses

  • Following major market moves reveals useful information.
  • Betting against popular market sentiment creates value.
  • Fewer high-conviction bets outperform high-volume betting.
  • Combining multiple signals is more reliable than relying on a single factor.
  • Recurring market patterns can be identified and exploited over time.
  • Consensus opinions outperform individual opinions.

The Championship does not assume any of these ideas are true.

The purpose is to test them publicly.
