Gambling With Good JuJu - Sports Betting, Casino Gambling, Las Vegas, and Shenanigans

We Built a Sports Betting Model! (With Help from Elihu Feustel + Python + Pure Stubbornness)

Breezy, DJ Real Juicy, Elihu Feustel Season 3 Episode 21

This week on Gambling with Good JuJu, we're bringing the brainpower! After 8 months of trial, error, and a whole lot of Python, Juice, Breezy, and show superfan Uncle Justin have taken Elihu Feustel’s book Beyond The Odds and built a working sports betting model from scratch.

We walk through every step of the journey—from scraping college football data, building a custom pipeline, and coding the answer key logic, to pivoting from college basketball to college football and back again. Then we welcome back Elihu himself to ask the real questions: Did we do it right? Does our distance factor make sense? Are we using junk data? And how the hell do you even determine a go/no-go betting threshold?

If you're a sports bettor who’s ever dreamed of originating your own numbers or building a model, this episode is your blueprint. And if you just love hearing Juice talk about code like he knows what he’s doing… this one’s for you too.
