Today's picks

Model picks show the model's probability next to the market's; rule picks carry the line we found and the reason. Football rules publish days ahead once their line is set, everything else about 30 minutes before its game, and every one is graded on the public ledger.

What is on this page

Every prediction our models produce for the day, published before it plays and left where it is afterwards. Each card shows the selection, the line we found at the softest number available, the model's own probability next to the market's, and the game start in your local time. Results are graded from the final score and written to a public record.

Slates vary. Baseball runs daily through the summer, football is weekly and seasonal, the NHL plays most nights from early October, basketball starts with the NBA preseason in October and college basketball in November, and on a quiet day there may be nothing that clears the bar. A day with no picks is a real answer rather than a gap, and we would rather show it than pad the page.

How a pick is published and settled

  1. The model runs first. It projects the game from team and player inputs, then compares its own number with the market. Only a large enough gap produces a pick.
  2. We shop the number. The line recorded is the softest one available across the books we read, because the number you get is part of whether a call is worth making.
  3. It publishes before the start. Football rules publish days ahead, as soon as their line is set; model picks typically about 30 minutes ahead. Once published it is sealed with a hash on an append-only ledger, so any later edit or removal would be detectable.
  4. The final score settles it. Win, loss or push is graded from the official result and appended to the record in the same size type either way.

The full history lives on the ledger, where each entry stores the hash of the one before it so the order cannot be rewritten. If you want the method rather than the record, how it works walks through it, and verified picks explains how to check the claims yourself.
