Best tips: how to sift, sort and pick the right one

What's in the list

Best tips is a cross-section of every match and every market, sorted by value. One match can appear several times, each time with a different market.

The list is a starting point, not a recommendation. A tip sitting at the top only means the model sees the largest gap there between the odds and fair value.

The columns run from the left: kick-off time, the match, the tip itself, badges, the model's probability, the bookmaker's odds, the fair odds and value. Clicking a header sorts by any of those numbers.

Badges

The value badge has four grades: Small, Good, Strong and Suspicious value. The last one is a warning, not praise — a gap that big against the market usually means something is off in the data, not that you've struck gold.

The risk badge (Low odds, Standard risk, Higher risk) describes the odds, not the quality of the tip. The same value at 12.00 and at 1.60 are two entirely different situations: the first lands rarely and big, the second often and small.

Filters

Every filter hides behind the Filters button, and the number on it says how many are switched on. You can filter by market, minimum value and probability, odds range, league and match status.

The most effective of those is the odds range, because the odds shape how a tip behaves — how many of them land and how wide the swings are. Setting the odds picks the type of bet, not just its size.
