#54you always gotta figure out the odds of a situation occurring and then finding out if the return on your bet is worth it.
For example, say Boston's ML is -900 and they're chance of winning is 88%. That means they'll lose 12% of the time (sounds pretty good) but your winnings only cover 10% (since you're risking 900 to win 100). In other words, in the long run, you'll be down 2% if you play this situation.
Now, obviously the tricky part is figuring out their "true" chance of winning. It really is impossible but you can use accurate systems and certain indicators to give you a good estimation.Comment -

The bottom line is you CANNOT. This is why it is actually possible to win in the long run with sports betting if you are knowledgeable and disciplined.
The above equation is also why you cannot win at casino games in the long run.Comment -
