Why

The market is undergoing sharp repricing with a negative move of -6.2% on the draw odds, indicating potential overreaction.

The market is experiencing drift repricing with an 8.1% positive move, but the historical CLV rate is only 52%, and pattern similarity is moderate at 56.7%. The closing edge is 4.65pp, which is below the threshold for a confident bet. Main risk: The market drift could still indicate latent value.

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.
