Game Analysis

This is a classic contrarian spot. The model's raw Poisson projection says Kings win 4.1-1.5 — a blowout. But the Bayesian fusion regresses that heavily due to VERY_LOW model agreement and a market prior that's already priced in the Kings' dominance. The result: Ducks at +539 have a 40.5% win probability per the posterior, vs 15.7% implied. That's a +24.8pp edge — the biggest on the board. Whale money ($28K at 77% confidence) is on Kings ML, which is exactly the kind of public/square money that creates value on the other side. The spread (+2.5) is a coin flip at -110, giving slight +EV. The moneyline is the high-variance play with massive upside. Both are worth small units given the data degradation.
