Tipster dossier — settled-bet performance through 2026-07-14 20:15 UTC
A straight upward line = consistent profitability. Step-jumps = single fortunate bets carrying the curve.
Blue bars under orange = picks lose to market expectations.
Strip away the top winning bets and see how the picture changes — a stable record degrades gracefully, a lucky record collapses.
| Subset | N | P/L | ROI |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full record | 26 | $-1.75 | -6.7% |
| Minus best 1 bet | 25 | $-7.35 | -29.4% |
| Minus best 2 bets | 24 | $-11.75 | -49.0% |
| Minus best 5 bets | 21 | $-19.40 | -92.4% |
If stripping the top 2 wins materially changes the ROI, the headline number is being held up by a couple of fortunate longshots — not stable skill.
