BetUS, American Sports Betting Software Program, Football Teams

Written on February 24, 2001; revised September 2001.

• He must be a big time sports bettor. The same guy who asked for a sport betting program like Teams sent me another request; or suggestion, as he put it.

"I previously suggested a sports program, here is another one. Can you write a sports program were we could enter the teams of our choice say jets vs. giants and the program randomly picks one team.  Basically the same concept of your other sports program, but we could enter our own teams.  It would still ask how many games etc.  I do not think it would be hard for you to write and it would be a good enhancement for your great site, I would even pay for it if you want.  People would enjoy putting their own teams in instead of just numbers popping out. Teams is a solid program, excellent for parlay cards, but this program could be just as good. Please take into consideration, Thanks."

Since it is a useful suggestion, useful for myself too, I wrote the program BetUS (32-bit software, running at the Command Prompt under 32-bit and 64-bit Windows). I enhanced the sports betting software greatly and renamed the program AmBet. It is a component of the integrated sport bet application named BrightS.

AmBet (formerly known as BetUS) is suitable for betting on American sports. There are two choices only: bet on the favorite to win by more than the point spread; or- bet on the underdog to lose by less than the point spread. This program is an enhancement of Teams. The combinations display team names, instead of numbers.

There two options available: generate open-ended combinations, like in Teams, until the user presses F10; or- generate 10 combinations around the median, like BELLBET. The user has also two input choices: typing the sport team names at the prompt; or- creating first text files, with the two teams of each game on the same line.

The file input makes it much easier to run the program repeatedly. It is also advised to write the name of the favorite in upper cases, and the name of the underdog in lower cases. Here is a file I created for 8 teams, both U.S. professional and college football. The file GAMES.8 represents games from the ending period (playoffs) of last season.

GIANTS, Eagles
VIKINGS, Saints
RAIDERS, Dolphins
Ravens, TITANS
Oklahoma, FLASTATE
ORSTATE, NotreD
WASTATE, Purdue
MIAMI, Florida

Since the games were real and I know their results, I was able to notice the advantage of generating 10 combinations around the median. There are 256 possibilities for 8 games with 2 outcomes. I get consistently more winning situations with 10 around the median than running the program until pressing F10. Actually, the ratio is substantially better in the 10 around the median case.

 GIANTS *  VIKINGS *  RAIDERS *  Ravens *  Oklahoma *  ORSTATE *  WASTATE *  MIAMI * 
 Eagles *  Saints *  Dolphins *  TITANS *  FLASTATE *  ORSTATE *  Purdue *  Florida * 
 GIANTS *  Saints *  RAIDERS *  Ravens *  FLASTATE *  ORSTATE *  Purdue *  MIAMI * 
 Eagles *  Saints *  Dolphins *  TITANS *  FLASTATE *  NotreD *  WASTATE *  MIAMI * 
 GIANTS *  VIKINGS *  Dolphins *  TITANS *  Oklahoma *  NotreD *  WASTATE *  Florida * 
 GIANTS *  Saints *  RAIDERS *  Ravens *  Oklahoma *  NotreD *  WASTATE *  MIAMI * 

The first combination shows the actual results.
