Tipster dossier — settled-bet performance through 2026-07-14 20:15 UTC

Verdict
ROI MISLEADING
Calibration is roughly neutral: actual win rate 28.6% vs implied 29.6% (-0.9pp). Picks track market expectations. 114% of total P/L comes from just the top 2 winning tips. Strip them out and you'd see an ROI of -5.4% on 190 bets — the headline number is being held up by a couple of lucky longshots. Recent 30d (ROI -11.6%) is materially worse than the prior 60d (+78.0%) — trend is declining. Bayesian-shrunk ROI (regressed toward -13% population baseline by sample size) is +27.4% — a more honest expectation than the raw +37.9%.

What's driving the ROI?

Strip away the top winning bets and see how the picture changes — a stable record degrades gracefully, a lucky record collapses.

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.
