Verdict
ROI MISLEADING
Small sample (6 bets) — anything below ~100 settled bets means CIs are wide enough to be near-useless. Calibration is negative: actual win rate 16.7% trails market-implied 24.5% by -7.8pp — picks have negative skill relative to fair odds. 500% of total P/L comes from just the top 2 winning tips. Strip them out and you'd see an ROI of -100.0% on 4 bets — the headline number is being held up by a couple of lucky longshots. Bayesian-shrunk ROI (regressed toward -13% population baseline by sample size) is -9.8% — a more honest expectation than the raw +16.7%.
Since last weekly snapshot: ROI: +23.5% (-6.8% → +16.7%) · Shrunk ROI: +2.1% (-11.9% → -9.8%) · Verdict: BREAK-EVEN / MARGINAL → ROI MISLEADING

Strip away the top winning bets and see how the picture changes — a stable record degrades gracefully,
a lucky record collapses.
