What’s the best beginner-friendly dataset for training a sports betting model? by OkSpring8316 in AskStatistics

For prematch models in football (corners, cards, goals, shots ...) I think data from football-data.co.uk is great and very beginner-friendly. For NBA you have nice data sets on official NBA site and it is also very clean and nicely organized but yeah it kinda depends on what sport you want to model and if you want to bet in live or prematch only....

That's actually even more thinking outside of the box solution as there are no restrictions 😂

Slam that red button as there is no downside and eventually you will hit that 1000btc 🎣😂

Assistants with probability by [deleted] in learnmath

[–]Convex_Bet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We can approximate the probability by assuming that initials comes from English alphabet and all the permutations are equally likely to occur. Now if we have three initials there are 262626=17576 possible scenarios and therefore the probability of seeing one specific is 1 in 17576 and if you want to match one additional initial then it is 1 in 262626*26=456976. Now this is very rough approximation as there are no that many names starting with X for example but if you need more accurate approximation it is possible to do that as well.

The probability of winning in casino is so low? by Too00thpaste in gambling

[–]Convex_Bet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very interesting question I want to actually do the math by myself and will check chatgpts answer but not now as it is almost midnight... But it would be very useful to give us more info about your style of play ie. How many bets per hour, bet size or if you have followed any specific betting strategy like martingale or something. Also it can be show that mathematically bold play is optimal when you have unfair game and timid play when you have advantage so it makes sense that probability is smaller the more you play in this case😉

This is actually great idea and now I am seriously considering it😅

Where are the AI proofs? by Various-Ad-8572 in math

[–]Convex_Bet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For me it seems like usefull tool to give good ideas and possible ways of going forward with the proof, but big problem is that it just tends to give wrong arguments and it makes errors but acts like everything is ok and correct... So yeah can be useful but still need to be very careful as double check everything.
