When the favorite dictates pace and avoids obvious passing situations, both legs can benefit.
Questions
Are Favorite moneyline and Under correlated?
A favorite winning through control can support a lower-scoring game. Our working same-game coefficient is about 0.16 (a seed estimate, not yet measured).
Why can't I just multiply the two prices?
Multiplying assumes independence. With a correlation of about 0.16, the true joint probability differs from the naive product, which is why the Autopsy simulates the pair 20,000 times instead.
Does the correlation hold across different games?
No. This relationship is driven by shared game state, so across separate games we treat the legs as independent.
