Our position
EdgeLine is an analytics and record-keeping tool, not a sportsbook. We believe betting is a form
of entertainment that costs money โ not a way to make money. Most bettors lose over time.
Please only ever bet what you can comfortably afford to lose.
Warning signs
- Betting more than you can afford, or chasing losses with bigger bets.
- Borrowing money or selling things to gamble.
- Feeling restless or irritable when trying to cut back.
- Lying about how much you gamble.
- Gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or low mood.
- Trying to stop and being unable to.
Stay in control
- Set a budget and a time limit before you start โ and stick to them.
- Never chase losses.
- Don't bet under the influence or when upset.
- Treat any losses as the cost of entertainment, not an investment.
- Take regular breaks.

A note on our tools
Our simulations and "edges" are statistical estimates. Our own testing shows the model does not
reliably beat the closing line. No tool โ including ours โ can guarantee a winning bet.
