If you believe in the long-term consistency of the systems:

System A: Edge=5.6%

System B: Edge=3.2%

Stake = 0.1975%


Hi JFC, long time no see[?]

Oh boy. not the Kelly again. Edge = overlay. Must know what the [true]overlay is to use this very aggressive staking plan, True overlay in sports betting? How long is a piece of string?

Rather than anyone suffering this Kelly nonsense championed by someone who never uses it by his own omission [JFC], here is a forum thread on this rubbish before you get sucked in:-)
