The Value Philosophy

True value betting isn't about finding underdogs - it's about identifying when the market has mispriced any fighter, favorite or underdog.

Core Value Principles

βš–οΈ

Mathematical Edge

Every bet must have positive expected value (+EV) based on model confidence vs market odds. No exceptions, no hunches.

🎯

Conservative Thresholds

Minimum 4% edge required before placing any bet. This filters out marginal opportunities and focuses on clear value.

πŸ“Š

Volume Discipline

Quality over quantity - averaging 3-4 bets per event ensures only the strongest opportunities make the cut.

πŸ’Ž

Market Inefficiencies

Focus on fights where public bias, name value, or recency bias create pricing errors the model can exploit.

πŸ›‘οΈ

Risk Management

Conservative Kelly sizing (ΒΌ Kelly) ensures survival through variance while capturing long-term edge.

πŸ“ˆ

Steady Growth

Target consistent 3-5% monthly returns rather than home runs. Compound growth creates wealth.

Example: Undervalued Favorite

Champion with 73% model confidence priced at -185 (64.9% implied). Despite being favored, still offers value.

Model: 73% Market: 64.9% Odds: -185
Expected Value
+8.1%

Example: Value Underdog

Experienced grappler with 42% model confidence priced at +220 (31.3% implied). Classic market overreaction.

Model: 42% Market: 31.3% Odds: +220
Expected Value
+10.7%

Example: No Value (Pass)

Popular striker with 55% model confidence priced at -130 (56.5% implied). Market efficient, no bet.

Model: 55% Market: 56.5% Odds: -130
Expected Value
-1.5%
