Frequently asked questions
What is ProbaLab?
ProbaLab publishes a win chance for every game we cover. Picks are posted before the start, frozen when the game begins, and kept on a public record — wins and losses both.
What do the lights mean?
Green, orange and red show how strongly the model leans. Cut-offs differ by sport: 65%+ green in the NBA, NFL and NHL; 55%+ in the Premier League and Championship; 70%+ in tennis. How the lights work explains each scale. How it works covers the models themselves.
What is Super — best value?
Super is an NBA-only value flag, not a higher-confidence green. It marks a pick where the bookmaker price beats our fair price under the rules on the lights page. Other sports do not use Super.
Where is the track record?
The Results page shows finished picks across every sport, with green first. Orange and red stay on the record too — nothing is deleted. Every pick is timestamped before the start, and you can download the CSV. “Vs close” is there when we have a price.
Do you have a longer history than the live site?
The live site is recent. Past-season tests of the models are on the backtest page, clearly labelled as a backtest and kept separate from the live results. A backtest is not a record of tips we published at the time, and we do not add it into the live green totals.
Is this betting advice?
No. The figures are for entertainment. We publish probabilities, not guarantees. A 70% pick is still meant to miss about three times in ten. Read our responsible gambling commitment.
