oh look coach belly hoping for a "gottch ya" moment.

Off the top of my head....I don't know. I would need to figure out just what 56% win rate comes to as far as an overall advantage. I am not a heavy math guy especially with formulas and all but I could probably figure it out if I needed to. And if I was claiming to have made a living sports betting for 40 years I would have done so.

In Blackjack, which is what I do for a living, the formula is BR x advantage (different for each TC) x .73 (rounded to .75 for ease).

But I dont do full Kelly, I do fractional kelly.
