This wasn't a system bet or pattern idea by Houli; it was one bet for one game. The fact that it wouldn't work over the long haul is totally irrelevant.
Wrong, the fact that it wouldn't work over the long haul is the entire point. You can go broke quickly continuously playing -EV plays.

But he won't come close to 50/50 with a 9-point middle in basketball.

+103 is a terrible price for a 9-point middle in basketball.
i totally agree. the reasonable window of possibilities is 9pts x's 3.5 = 31.5 pts.............so only getting paid +103 is a bad deal
