From MLB Fire to NFL Kickoff: Riding the 128% Bankroll Wave

Daily Card – Thursday, September 4, 2025
🔥 Hot Streak
NFL Opening Night + MLB Momentum

The calendar flipped to September and the community flipped the switch. A 5–1 Wednesday delivered our third straight winning day and pushed us to a 128% bankroll three days in. MLB is doing the heavy lifting — sides/totals are clean and the HR ladder is paying premiums. NFL kickoff gives us the next inflection point tonight in Cowboys–Eagles: one flagship play plus four MLB edges. Let’s press the advantage.

Community FAQ
Why separate HR props?
They’re high-variance, high-yield. Breaking them out shows the plus-money impact (currently 2–0 at +525 and +325).
Is NFL integrated into the model?
Yes — preseason sims and priors flow into Week 1 where the market is often most inefficient.
How are stakes determined?
Edges, matchup fit, and price. 2–5% bands scale conviction without overexposing bankroll.

All plays are tracked publicly for accountability. Bankroll % is relative to starting unit size. Bet responsibly.
