This is my record on 223 picks this season in NHL. Do you think about W-L record? It is not important. I don't show it intentionally, because most people still don't understand, that W-L record says nothing.

Let's see an example:
Guy A:
W-L: 6-4 (60%)

Guy B:
4W-L: 4-6 (40%)

Who is better? You would say, that Guy A, but that is not correct, because - You don't know. Much better indicator is YIELD. Profit/Risked money. Also Profit is better than W-L.
W-L Record is just for new recreational bettors, who are willing to pay $500 for betting service and after some time they lose all money, because they don7t understand the bascis from the start

So back to our guys.

What if Guy A played all games with $100 and the odds -200?
Then he is on loss of -$100 (I took $100 flat on every game)

What if the second Guy B played all games with the odds of +200?
Then he is on +$200.

So, the answer on your question is already in my post.
PROFIT and the YIELD are the best indicators what is my record.
If you think about W-L this is irrelevant and not important and wvery bettor, who shows only W-L record in MLB and NHL, he must learn some more things.

When I see in NHL forums record: 150-135-2 I don't know anything about it and it just show the lack of sports betting knowledge.

Sorry for longer post, I don't know if this was your question, but I wanted to say this to all those handicappers, who show their record in "W-L" format, that those information are useless.
