Is this betting advice?
No. The machine draws from a market-priced pool for entertainment and shows the pricing gap. A screen pass or a top rating is not a bet recommendation or a claim that a leg will win.
How does the machine price my ticket?
- Translate. American odds become an implied chance for every leg.
- Price it fair. Each leg carries its own fair chance from the market's fair price, and those are multiplied. Same-game correlation is not modeled.
- Show the gap. The fair return is compared with the book return. That difference is the book's hold.
How is the pool screened?
Every leg in the pool is screened — all checked against the market's fair price, built from the cross-book market with each book's cut removed. Where the market is too thin for a fair price, the leg stays in at its best listed price and says so; anytime TDs posted before the two-way market opens get an estimate from the books' Yes prices, labelled as one; alt lines quoted by three or more books get a fair chance from those books' prices, less a typical cut, and thinner ones from a model pinned to the main line. RotoWire's projection is shown with each leg but never drops one. Each leg is then priced at the book you pick, or at the best price across books in Compare mode. Draws lean toward the legs the research rates highest, but never so often that the same few legs repeat. No player appears twice, and the machine spreads legs across games: two legs share a game only when the slate has too few games for the ticket, or when you add them yourself (at most 10 from one game).
What are the limits of that screen?
The fair price is an estimate from the market, not a prediction — it says what the price should be, not who will win. Same-game correlation isn't modeled, lines move after capture, and RotoWire is one projection source used only as a tiebreaker. Verify every line and price at your book.
Where do the lines come from?
Cross-book player-prop lines through PropLine — every leg names its best listed book and how many books carried that line.
Can I choose what the machine draws?
Yes. Pick the days and games, switch any market off, add the books' alt lines (by default only the ones the player has reached at least once this season; turn off “Lines he’s hit” for all of them), keep unders or go overs only, and choose the leg odds: any, safer legs (55%+ to hit by the fair price), or longshots (+150 or longer). On a ticket, Keep holds a leg for your next pull, Swap redraws one leg, Remove takes a leg off and reprices what's left, and Add a research favorite adds the leg the research rates highest left on the whole board, your filters aside. Add a player finds anyone on the board by name: tap one of his legs, or Pull for him and the machine chooses one. A removed player stays out of swaps and adds until you tap Release.
How are same-game legs handled?
Same-game legs are correlated. Two or more legs from one game make a same-game parlay, which the book prices itself, usually well below the leg-by-leg payout shown here (sometimes about half). So the machine spreads legs across games, and any ticket with same-game legs is labelled leg by leg, with a warning to check the payout on your slip.
Why pick a sportsbook?
A parlay has to be placed at one book. The machine starts at DraftKings; pick yours and it only draws legs that book offers, then prices the whole ticket there. "Compare all books" shows the best price for each leg across books instead, which you can't bet as one ticket.
How accurate are the projections?
RotoWire projections (via Sleeper) vs. actual results, NFL Weeks 1–3, 2026 — meaningful props only. This is projection accuracy, not ticket results. RotoWire projections are now the tiebreaker, not the screen — the report card stays as a public check on the projector's accuracy.
How does the MLB tab work?
Same machine, playoff baseball: hits, total bases, home runs, RBIs, runs, hits + runs + RBIs, walks and strikeouts for batters; strikeouts, outs, hits, walks and earned runs for pitchers, each priced against the cross-book market's fair price when there's enough market to set one. Any market can be switched off. Games lock 15 minutes before first pitch. Playoff days are short slates, so most MLB tickets carry same-game legs, and the payout estimate doesn't model how they move together.
How does the NBA tab work?
Same machine, game-day basketball: points, rebounds, assists, threes, steals, blocks, turnovers and the points/rebounds/assists combos, each priced against the cross-book market's fair price when there's enough market to set one. Any market can be switched off. Games lock 15 minutes before tip-off. Legs from the same game move together, and the payout estimate doesn't model that.
Can I bet these?
Only at your own sportsbook, if legal where you are. The button on the receipt opens the ticket's book and copies your legs so you can add them there — books don't let outside sites fill your bet slip. Lines move; verify every player, market, line, and price first.
Why does the fair estimate differ from the book payout?
Usually the book pays less than fair — that gap is the book's hold. But some short tickets are priced so well they pay more than fair, and the receipt says so when it happens. It's an estimate either way, not a book quote.
