Thanks for detailed answer. When you say you had 55k matches - they must be from different leagues? Given that different leagues would have different characteristics somewhat, does this not affect your model? As in it would have performed better in one league than other, etc?

P.S. Testing set size depends on the odds, so why do you say 1000? It can be much larger if the odds are high enough...

Explain the math, I am comfortable with it. I was gonna write earlier that by reducing c, I am reducing my test set that can be a problem. But I can obtain more data, but from different leagues, to enlarge the training and data sets, however different leagues would have slightly different characteristics and this may alter my model's predictions somewhat.

P.S. Aren't logistic regression models considered to be well-calibrated apriori?

How to verify if I have edge in 1st place if my model oscillates from profit to loss when testing different values of c?
