How to focus when lots of fixtures show value (triage)

Start with the two indicators: a Sanity Score of 7 or higher and +EV of 5% or more. Holding everything you run to those two removes most of the noise, and the getting-started entry covers them in full. This entry is about what happens next, because even after that first cut, a busy day can leave more qualifying fixtures than your bankroll or attention can cover.

Not all positive EV is equal, and EV% alone should not set your priority order. A +18% edge means little if the model is uncertain about its own calculation, while a +9% edge with high confidence is a firmer foundation. Weigh the pairing rather than the single number. High EV with a high Sanity Score is your first tier: proper attention and stakes. High EV with moderate confidence, or moderate EV with high confidence, is your second tier: worth acting on at reduced size. Moderate EV with moderate confidence is selective territory, for when you want volume and your bankroll allows it.

When you have three strong options and limited bankroll, take the top two properly rather than spreading thin across all three.

The mental model is hospital triage: the nurse facing three simultaneous arrivals allocates by severity, without guilt. Gecko Edge gives you the patient list. You are the triage nurse.
