Podcast Highlights: Basewinner & Metrics Mike - High level Handicapping (Podcast Start) -- Good talk about the plus/minuses of using excel to power your handicapping. The guys talk about how they have used excel to build models but also how they are transitioning out of excel and building higher power models with a dual edge.
