Are you going to make all bets analysis (not only these live) ?
As i understand past analysis with betting only overlays >17.5% is ok to be profitable enought (10%).

yes I agree with you Hareeba, good chance that it is meerly just normal random variation. I dont see wy the live results should differ from those since the start of the year.

As is frequently the case such analysis leaves me scratching my noggin!
The previous analysis for Overs with 17.5%+ overlays (2325 bets) returned a very healthy 13% profit.
Adding this ‘live’ analysis of just 139 bets would make that now a total of 2514 bets for a profit of 11.9% – still very healthy!
I note the strike rate for the latter sample was only 46% as compared with 49.5% previously.
Why would you not be inclined at this stage to simply think this is normal random variation?
