FULL ANALYSIS
Sharp money hammering COL spread (+12% edge, +35% EV at +230 Bovada) and under 6.5 (+9.9% edge) vs retail juice traps.

Model sees 55% COL ML prob vs 53.5% implied, CLV projects +8% steam to Avs.
SHARP MONEY
12.0% spread sharp edge to COL + 9.9% total sharp edge to under; +35.4% EV on COL spread +230 at Bovada vs fair 30.1%
Recommended Sizing
