Prompt
Prediction market question (Sports): "Valero Texas Open: Will J.T. Poston finish top 20?". The market currently prices YES at 71.00 cents (implied probability 0.710). What is YOUR probability that this market resolves YES? Your bankroll is $1000.
Raw response
I'll search for current information about J.T. Poston's form and the Valero Texas Open to give you an informed probability assessment. Based on my research, here's my assessment: **My probability: ~42% (NO is +EV at 71¢ YES)** **Key factors:** | Factor | Assessment | |--------|------------| | **Course history** | Best finish T27 (2017); 2025 result: T26 (-1) — *missed top 20* | | **Field strength** | Typically elite (7 of top 13 OWGR, 21 Masters invitees, 12 major champs in 2025) | | **Course fit** | TPC San Antonio favors elite ball-striking/GIR; Poston 113th OWGR, 176/259 putting | | **Recent form** | 2 wins in 2024 (Memorial, Shriners) but Valero-specific form poor | | **Base rate** | Top 20 = top 13% of 150-player field; solid PGA Tour pro ~25-35% baseline | **Why the market is likely wrong at 71%:** - Recency bias from 2024 wins (Memorial, Shriners) not translating to Valero - Zero career top-20s at this event in 4 prior starts - Course demands (GIR, scrambling, par-5 scoring) don't align with Poston's statistical profile - 2025 result (T26) is the most relevant data point and it was a miss **Kelly fraction** (if you agree with 42%): ~2.5% of bankroll = **$25 on NO** (at 29¢ implied 0.29 prob) The market appears to be overpricing his 2024 general form while ignoring his specific Valero struggles and course-fit mismatch.
