Use the promo code FIRST at Probly.com/subscribe and check the Product Updates below for more details.

Probly Product Updates

As I mentioned above, you can now get a paid subscription to Probly.com (that weā€™re uniquely calling Probly+) at Probly.com/subscribe and save 40% off with promo code FIRST. Hereā€™s what that will do for you:

-In either our $19.99/month Probly+ package or our $49.99 Probly+ Live package, you can now sort by Most Profitable (or Least Profitable) on our Markets page and our Explore page. This will allow you to find the best bets in any game, sport, or league QUICKLY and ā€” as is the case with a lot of our functionalities given the volume of data ā€” functions best if you filter down by league.

-The $49.99 tier will get access to Live in-game data (which we are currently fixing filtering on, hoping to fully release by next week) as well as any future products we release. Without fully tipping our hand, that includes things like an Underdog Pickā€™em/PrizePicks builder that will use our data to shorten the ability to build a mathematically profitable lineup there ā€” things that will all be in service of helping you make bets more efficiently, with the best possible data. Only users in this tier will see data for in-game markets.

-This discount will apply for our monthly packages OR our yearly ones but it will only apply for your first cycle. So youā€™d get half off $19.99/month or $49.99/month half off your first year of $199.99 or $499.99. We strongly believe the package will pay for itself no matter which option you choose and we hope it also shows how much we want to get you on board to earn your trust and business with a discount this deep for our first customers.

Weā€™ve also rolled out other minor changes this week that are relevant to you:

-We addressed an issue with our count of markets not performing correctly that has been fixed as of the time you read this. If you ever see that issue again (i.e. Basketball not showing or serving markets), use our League filtering to find the league and youā€™ll still get what you want. But it should be snuffed out now.

-You now have to be a registered user to sort by Most Probable or Least Probable. You can still filter and scroll through everything without being logged into an account but it helps us if you create an account so thatā€™s basically the gist there.

-Weā€™ve also launched a full FAQ and our support email, [email protected]. Check it out and never hesitate to reach out if you have any issue.

-I anticipate starting a regular content flow on the Probly YouTube plus our Twitter, TikTok and Instagram starting next week. Likely at least one video and a graphic per day coming out on there so if you want more of that in your life, get on board now.

Now hereā€™s why weā€™re doing all weā€™re doing:

To raise money in the past, you needed a good idea and a deck if you had domain expertise, maybe a demo of a product if you didnā€™t. Now, you need to show that people are willing to pay for your product (even though you often need money to build the things that make people want to pay for your product, sick league) and that it can grow and scale relative to that revenue.

So weā€™re really hoping you guys will come out and support hard initially. Not only will it make it easier for us to find the funding we need to build Probly into a behemonth, it will also help us keep the costs at bay that, up until now, have been paid entirely out of pocket.

Any sort of efficacy we have with people paying for subscriptions will be hugely helpful to both ends. Thatā€™s why weā€™re offering an aggressive discount on it to start because we care about community and being in this boat together with you guys. You scratch our back, we will scratch yours with the best possible product, community, and content experience we can provide. That plus all the new features we can possibly muster that will add value to every user, be they an experienced bettor or someone who just wants to get in a good bet with no effort.

I really hope youā€™ll sign up and get in here as we build something real. Itā€™ll help us, itā€™ll help you, and weā€™ll do everything we can in service of helping you win more and lose less.

Do it āž”ļø Probly.com/subscribe, promo code FIRST for 40% off any package (go for the annual Probly+ Live one if you really want to do us a mitzvah while saving yourself up to $250).

If you guys encounter any issues not covered here or want to provide feedback, you can email me [email protected].

The Rest Of The Sports World

NFL Week 10 is upon us and it comes with the biggest favorite of the year as the Dallas Cowboys face third-string rookie QB Tommy DeVito, one of the worst QBs Iā€™ve laid mine eyes upon in quite some time.

A Cowboys win comes with a college football-level 91% probability against the Giants, who might be one of the worst teams in football the rest of the way. The Cowboys blew a similarly favorited spot against Joshua Dobbs and the Cardinals earlier this year but letā€™s just say DeVito is no Dobbs (which is not a sentence Iā€™d have ever thought needs to be said).

Letā€™s go game by game and mix in some +EV bets via our PROBLY Score where applicable. Hereā€™s your NFL Week 10 Most Probable:

  • Indianapolis (-2) at New England (42.5 O/U) ā€” Top five most probable: Mike Gesicki under 0.5 TDs at an 84% probability, Juju Smith-Schuster under 0.5 TDs at a 78% probability, Indianapolis Colts +3 (1st half) at a 62% probability, Colts +3 at a 59% probability, and Jonathan Taylor under 2.5 receptions at a 58% probability.

    What this means: A lot of unders but two +3 spreads for the Coltsā€™ half and full game mean a likely ugly but competitive game. Over 41.5 is just outside the top five at a 56% probability so there is something of a safe expectation of scoring. Thereā€™s also a high bar alternate total of Under 45.5 at a 56% probability so maybe there is hope for some production, just not from Gesicki or Juju.

  • Cleveland (+6.5) at Baltimore (38 O/U) ā€” Top five most probable: Nelson Agholor under 0.5 TDs at an 87% probability, Lamar Jackson under 0.5 TDs (rush/rec) at a 70% probability, Lamar Jackson under 1.5 passing TDs at a 64% probability, Amari Cooper over 3.5 receptions at a 59% probability, and Mark Andrews under 4.5 receptions at a 59% probability.

    What this means: It doesnā€™t look great for Lamar, thatā€™s for sure. Clevelandā€™s D has been a world beater this year besides an abberation versus Indy but this is a lot of certainty against one of the NFLā€™s most dynamic offenses. Either way, there is definitely a market expectation of a classic AFC North slogfest.

  • Houston (+6.5) at Cincinnati (47 O/U) ā€” Top five most probable: Bengals moneyline (1st half) at a 67% probability, Bengals moneyline (1st quarter) at a 65% probability, CJ Stroud under 0.5 INTs at a 59% probability, Joe Burrow over 1.5 passing TDs at a 59% probability, and Under 50.5 at a 59% probability.

    What this means: FWIW, Bengals win would be on top at about a 70% probability but it was pulled as I wrote this. It does seem like the Under 50.5 line could mean this game does live up to the shootout potential some are expecting after Houston slung it all over the field last week. This will be a very popular game for fantasy and there is nothing in these alternates that make me feel like fading it is a good idea, especially with a more concentrated offense for Cincinnati with no Tee Higgins.

  • New Orleans (-3) at Minnesota (40.5 O/U) ā€” Top five most probable: Vikings +1.5 (1st half) at a 58% probability (and a 7.5 PROBLY Score at -115 odds), Over 17.5 (1st half) at a 57% probability, Jordan Addison over 3.5 receptions at a 57% probability, Under 43 at a 56% probability, and Michael Thomas over 3.5 receptions at a 56% probability.

    What this means: It looks good for Jordan Addison with Josh Dobbs behind center; Addison over 49.5 receiving yards also has a 55% probability and a 1.6 PROBLY Score at -120 odds (and is a good bet for an Underdog Pickā€™em with that 55% win rate that you need for each leg of a five-leg). There is a high bar over/under here relatively speaking with that Under 43 line so that means thereā€™s some chance of increased shootout potential, which is definitely the case for more games this week than last (where it was basically Houston-Tampa Bay).

  • Green Bay (+3.5) at Pittsburgh (39 O/U) ā€” Top five most probable: Christian Watson under 0.5 TDs at a 76% probability, Kenny Pickett under 1.5 passing TDs at a 69% probability, AJ Dillon under 1.5 receptions at a 62% probability, Connor Heyward under 2.5 receptions at a 57% probability, and George Pickens under 3.5 at a 57% probability.

    What this means: Green Bay and Pittsburgh are two teams who have greatly disappointed my prognostication this off-season and thereā€™s nothing here that screams I should expect improvement. At least Kenny Pickett might throw for 1 TD is a good sign for Steelers fans. But this seems like a gross one with nothing supporting an outlier scoring effort in these markets.

  • San Francisco (-3) at Jacksonville (45 O/U) ā€” Top five most probable: Evan Engram under 0.5 TDs at a 73% probability, Evan Ingram over 4.5 receptions at a 61% probability, Niners win at a 59% probability, Under 46.5 at a 56% probability, and Deebo Samuel under 4.5 receptions at a 56% probability.

    What this means: The Under 46.5 alternate total does show potential for some increase in scoring, albeit not much. These are two quality defenses so any positive sign from the markets is a noteworth reflection. Engramā€™s TD prop isnā€™t a fantastic one but his receptions one may be a good sign for an outlier day at TE. I donā€™t expect much of this game but maybe a defensive TD is afoot given the total and no positive, high probability over markets.

  • Tennessee (+1) at Tampa Bay (39 O/U) ā€” Top five most probable: Kyle Phillips under 2.5 receptions at a 62% probability, Over 6.5 (1st quarter) at a 59% probability, Titans +3 at a 59% probability, Baker Mayfield under 1.5 passing TDs at a 57% probability, and Baker Mayfield under 242.5 passing yards at a 55% probability.

    What this means: I really had some hope this game could have shootout potential like Houston-Tampa Bay did last week but the lack of quality overs and alternate total doesnā€™t give me much faith there. It does seem like we should expect a competitive game but maybe one that errs on the side of defensively minded and/or ugly than one where Will Levis slings four TDs.

  • Detroit (-3) at LA Chargers (48.5 O/U) ā€”  Top five most probable: Jahmyr Gibbs under 0.5 TDs at a 69% probability, Josh Reynolds under 2.5 receptions at a 61% probability, Justin Herbert under 0.5 INTs at a 56% probability, Sam LaPorta over 4.5 receptions at a 56% probability, and Lions moneyline (1st quarter) at a 55% probability.

    What this means: The lack of a high-bar alternate total is interesting since this game is definitely one where people will expect outlier offensive production. There still can be some, particularly on the Lionsā€™ side against a weak Chargers defense. I still like the game, definitely like Sam LaPorta, and weep for the Jahmyr Gibbs backers out there who will be bummed to see his role immediately evaporate with David Montgomery back.

  • Atlanta (-1.5) at Arizona (43 O/U) ā€” Top five most probable: Kyler Murray under 1.5 passing TDs at a 65% probability, Cardinals +3 (1st half) at a 62% probability, Bijan Robinson under 0.5 player TDs at a 62% probability, Taylor Heinicke under 1.5 passing TDs at a 62% probability, and Bijan Robinson under 3.5 receptions at a 60% probability.

    What this means: Well it doesnā€™t look like a great return for Kyler, even if that Cardinals +3 line does seem like there is an expectation to keep it close. The Bijan Robinson lines look particularly bad for the people who want Arthur Smith to use him like the draft capital indicated they might. I hope they find peace in these tumultuous times.

  • NY Giants (+17) at Dallas (39 O/U) ā€” Top five most probable: Dallas win at a 91% probability, Tommy DeVito over 0.5 INTs at a 66% probability, Darius Slayton under 2.5 receptions at a 60% probability, CeeDee Lamb over 5.5 receptions at a 58% probability, and Under 21.5 (1st half) at a 57% probability.

    What this means: Dallasā€™s first half and first quarter moneylines are down as I write this so I presume those would be not far behind the Win probability if they were live. Overall though, it looks a lot like the Giants getting nothing going with some expectation of at least one shot for a pick-six for Dallasā€™s D with that Tommy DeVito INT prop. One bet to note that isnā€™t a plus-EV one but is relevant for fantasy: Tony Pollard over 0.5 touchdowns has a 55% probability. Thatā€™s awfully high so this could be his redemption spot after a month or more of bad games.

  • Washington (+6) at Seattle (44.5 O/U) ā€” Top five most probable: Jake Bobo under 0.5 TDs at an 87% probability, Seahawks win at a 71% probability, Terry McLaurin under 0.5 TDs at a 68% probability, Over 43.5 at a 57% probability, and Sam Howell under 2.5 passing TDs.

    What this means: Some sharp people out there have earmarked this oen as a potential shootout game and there is an Under 47.5 at a 56% probability right behind the top five so maybe it can get there. But thereā€™s nothing screaming offensive explosion here, even if the Over 43.5 line does give you some confidence in the floor.

  • NY Jets (+1) at Las Vegas (36.5 O/U) ā€” Top five most probable: Jakobi Meyers under 0.5 TDs at a 76% probability, Zach Wilson under 1.5 passing TDs at a 68% probability, Jets +3 at a 59% probability, and Over 6.5 (1st quarter) at a 56% probability.

    What this means: Well this one looks gross and bad for Zach Wilson with another potential implosion on national TV in a row. This is the Sunday Night Football game this week that they somehow didnā€™t flex out and it appears like one where we should all suffer.  

  • Denver (+7.5) at Buffalo (46.5 O/U) ā€” Top five most probable: Bills moneyline at a 74% probability, Josh Allen under 0.5 TDs (rush/rec) at a 63% probability, Josh Allen over 1.5 passing TDs at a 62% probability, Khalil Shakir over 2.5 receptions at a 61% probability, and Russell Wilson under 21.5 rushing yards at a 56% probability (and a 2.2 PROBLY Score at -120 odds).

    What this means: Josh Allen might look like the safest play in the history of Monday Night Football Showdowns on DraftKings with the high likelihood of a multi-TD game (even if he doesnā€™t run one in). The Bills should crush a Broncos team that simply cannot defend the pass and they could hang a lot of points here.
