How We Boosted a Betting Platform’s Profit by $30,000 Daily

Result

• Increased the platform's daily profit (hold) by an average of USD $30,000 per day since October 2024

• Delivered a scalable AI solution that processes millions of data points efficiently, outpacing and outperforming prior attempts.

Challenge

Imagine running a platform with millions on the line, only to watch sharp bettors exploit your odds and drain your profits. That’s the nightmare our client faced.

Their previous ML team—stacked with math prodigies—spent six months trying to solve the problem with a convoluted model. The result? A meager 0.15% increase in hold—barely a scratch on the surface.

The clock was ticking, and they needed a solution. Fast. That’s when they called us.

Our Approach

At the heart of our success lies a commitment to the Data Science Life Cycle—a structured process that ensures no detail is overlooked. While others focus purely on building complex models, we take a data-centric approach, as championed by industry leaders like Andrew Ng. For us, understanding the data isn’t just a step; it’s the foundation.

Taming over 100 Million Rows of betting data

we rolled up our sleeves and dove into 100 million rows by 83 columns of raw betting data—each row a potential clue, each column a piece of the puzzle. Using BigQuery Studio notebooks, we dissected the data with precision, uncovering subtle patterns and nuances that others overlooked.

From spotting inconsistent betting behaviors to pinpointing trends among skilled bettors, this meticulous Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) phase was the bedrock of our success. It didn’t just guide our solution—it ensured we built something rooted in reality, not guesswork. By mastering the data, we turned raw numbers into actionable insights.

Speed and Scale Built In

Instead of relying on bloated systems, we engineered a lean, mean, data-crunching machine. Powered by:

• Dask arrays for lightning-fast, parallelized processing.

• Python, Docker, Artifact Registry, and Cloud Run to create a containerized solution that computes and categorizes bettors every three days—on autopilot.

Simplicity Beats Complexity

Where others over-engineered, we kept it sharp and simple. Our streamlined profiling model focused on what mattered: identifying skilled bettors draining profits. We rigorously tested it on a subset of users before unleashing it platform-wide.

Impact

$30,000 daily profit increase—delivered consistently since day one.

Scalable pipeline capable of processing millions of data points efficiently.

Future-proofing revenue streams, with ongoing development to target high-value losing players.
