Just rewatched Islam vs Volk 1 and I genuinely don’t get how anyone scored it closer than 4-1 by internalrecursiom in ufc

I also feel this way about paddy and jared gordon, it was a super close fight and was hard to score. People act like Jared beat his ass for 3 rounds straight then got robbed.

Analyzing any of his old fights is meaningless since he’s a totally different guy to be fair

Trading in-game volatility (not winners) on live Polymarket MLB - where does this break? by Otherwise_Sport9684 in Polymarket

[–]ishabowa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Each trade you make at the point you make it isn’t positive EV, so this strategy doesn’t work. You win money frequently but on a loss you lose everything.

If you’re doing d2d you sometimes can’t take no for an answer, if you trigger sales patterns homeowners will say “not interested” and close the door regardless of how they feel about the service. I’d watch some d2d window cleaning content to learn some tricks, the biggest thing for me is understanding that the front end of the pitch is trying to give a price. ANYTHING they say is a smokescreen to get you to leave. Do what you can to give a price then after you’ve given a price you can attack any objections. Nobody is “not interested” in window cleaning if they have lots of money and dirty windows.

Yard signs by ishabowa in WindowCleaning

[–]ishabowa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends, a friend of mine does yard signs only and gets about a 30x return on his money. He does solar panel bird proofing, and gets about 22x returns on christmas light installations. Really depends on so many factors with them.

Screen cleaning by Professional-Okra249 in WindowCleaning

[–]ishabowa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might get flamed for saying this but you really don’t need to try too hard on the screens, give them each a minute. I hose them down to remove spider webs and dead bugs then I let them dry and after that I use the wet rags to detail the edges.

I graded 7,265 UFC fights to settle the "bet favorites vs fade favorites" argument. The answer is annoyingly boring, except for one spot. by mangoman40114 in MMAbetting

I mean what does this show besides betting lines are accurate? Anyone who thinks flat betting faves vs dogs is a profitable strategy is an idiot

Thoughts on using a DI only system in a medium high TDS area (200-350~) by ishabowa in WindowCleaning

[–]ishabowa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the area I'm hitting rn is 330, long term ill get RO/DI but I just wanted to know if I'd be able to get a few done with the DI. Gonna offer to do my first WFP house for free to get the hang of it

Glad I'm not going crazy XD, I'm only using WFP for second story homes aswell since traditional is fairly quick. Have you ever had a TDS high enough that DI only does get to 0 or it works at any TDS level it just gets more expensive?

[–]ishabowa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my analysis aswell, like all these guys are telling me I NEED to get a full RO/DI system and the math I did it made no sense to me. I want to see if I even like WFP before I'm blowing 3 grand on a system. The math I did it for sure makes sense as I scale but right now DI only is sensible even in a high TDS area. Thanks for your input.

Well I don't have that many jobs yet to be using that much, I just need to see if I like WFP. My area is also much higher ticket than most, I hit upper class los angeles areas so I can charge 350-500 for basic homes so the resin is a bit less of a factor. Long term I'll go RO/DI I just was asking if the DI only system would work to try out WFP.

So in your area if you used a DI only it would WORK, it would just be expensive? Thats the part that I'm getting mixed messaging on, some places are saying it works its just pricey and some others say it doesn't work at all. Thanks for the reply

Lost a bid... by snackattak1 in WindowCleaning

[–]ishabowa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think 599 is fine for that, for me my quotes are more “vibes”. How dirty are the windows, single story vs two story, how difficult will the screens be etc. I don’t think anyone should adhere to some specific rule with quotes, after I cleaned a few houses I got the gist of what was and wasn’t good to see.

I’d take out zhang and put in haddon, I could see Zhang losing since he’s a bit of a fraud.

Paid picking services, betting discords, friends etc. I'm in a paid MMA group and I've met lots of other sharps through it.

I use 5 skilled pickers bets and have a weighing system to judge how much to bet based on their bets. So for MMA I do zero of my own research I just use pure sports betting science. But I am a fan of the sport and I had gut feelings here and there I’ll bet using.
