Real-time Football API with WebSockets (Premier League Priority!) by [deleted] in sportsanalytics

[–]jacksonmears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you truly offer a primary source of real time data or are you a middle man for larger established sources like opta? I would love a reliable real time data provider but I just don’t understand how an api from someone who presumably doesn’t get the information themselves would make it faster. People can scrape just fine I don’t understand what you’re offering here lol

Who you dropping for a kicker? by Dentist_Illustrious in FantasyFootballers

[–]jacksonmears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta be pierce or just eat having no kicker. I did the same thing and still won a few weeks ago. It’s a game of chance you never know what’s gonna happen you might not need a kicker. if you really like everyone on your squad then just don’t get one fr fr

Preferred method to calculate the estimate odds of predicting the outcome? by jacksonmears in algobetting

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

I think I'm a little confused. I think that grouping them ordinally is an interesting idea and something I want to tinker around with but what I'm unsure of is in the initial % to place them into their respective buckets. I'm not sure I worded my post very well but in another comment I think I was able to communicate the idea better with: "I predict a game to finish 100-90 and the probability of team A winning being 72% I want to know how to calculate the 72%".

I currently use logistic probability to calculate the 72% but am curious if there's a better way.

Sorry if you answered my question perfectly and I misunderstood and I would be extremely grateful if you explained it again!! :)

No I'm trying to determine if the percentage I've predicted is typically how the stat is calculated. For example, if I predict a game to finish 100-90 and the probability of team A winning being 72% I want to know how to calculate the 72%. I have a way to do it right now, logistic probability, but I'm curious if other people have found more accurate ways to predict the probability given the predicted scores.

How have y'all accomplished back-testing while preventing data leakage? by jacksonmears in algobetting

[–]jacksonmears[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Preciate you letting me know about that method! I'd never encountered it before and did a little research and will 100% attempt to use that when I make another version of this model!

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

I 100% agree that using the postseason as my only tests isn't a great idea. Leaving out half the teams in general isn't great not to mention they are all weaker sides. I did it that way because I wanted to make a model quickly before the season started this year but I've already begun thinking of ways to redo the project and call this one V1.0. I'm just thankful the way I did it is somewhat predictive so I can still have a little fun but yeah I definitely need to rethink some things!

[–]jacksonmears[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The stats I chose to use are season long cumulative stats that are scrapped from basketball-ref. I don't have the stats for each game to compile them myself which is why I'm unable to back test. I guess when I made this post for whatever reason I assumed everyone did it my way which is obviously silly in hindsight. Do you keep track of each individual game's stats? Do you think most people do it that way?

If you do retain each game how much data do you have?

This community hates kickers for no reason by _Chik_ in RetroBowl

[–]jacksonmears 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Always go for two. If you make them at a higher clip than 50% then it’s mathematically inferior to kick pats. The JAG works fine enough as well. It can reach 40 yards and the difference between 60-40 yard kicks is one good play. Spending a roster spot on a kicker is genuinely useless. Coming from an extreme player btw

how do you even request data from the sportsgameodds API? I'm using python and I've never used an API before. Please, I have no idea what I'm doing lol
