If You Claim To Win At Gambling...

[UntilTheNDofTimE]

plus points are good the more you have, more % you have to win. if you have for example Texas +12.5 (-105) and i had texas +13.5 (-110) and just by luck texas losed by 13 points. My bet win i do not care if i risked more than you. But In the bottom line I won my bet and you lost ur money. that is what I understand.

No fact is this is a marathon not a sprint. The +12.5 vs +13.5 will be obsolete most of the time. If you plan on winning 53% of the time betting to win 1 unit taking a -110 vs -105. This thinking you have will cost you 47 units over 2000 plays.

But if I had +13.5 I Win if the score is randomteam 13 texas 0

you lose if you had 12.5

And that is how is it

If you said that i am wrong then I will like to see the math

see above post

A lot to learn? LOL. A +13.5 -110 when the closer is +12.5 -105 is -2.75% edge, retard. No matter how you try to spin it, you're WRONG.

That is if you think +12.5 is a 50% wager. Fish was just saying if you already liked Mizzou then jump on the +13.5, ie if you think the Missouri +12.5 is a 53% wager, grab +13.5 and hit a shade under 54%. Obviously if you consider +12.5 to be 50%, no one is arguing that betting a 51% play at -110 or even -105 is a smart move.

Not trying to take sides here, respect both Fishy and MF quite a bit.

I admit that you may all be correct, and do not get me wrong, I bet for fun and I only make like $2 parlays like 3 per month. So I do not place too much head on the long run. For me it is just a sprint.

Let's say the 13 pushes 0.94% of the time. 50% of the time +12.5 wins and 50% of the time +12.5 loses. So +13.5 is 50.94% to win. After 10,000 $100 bets on +13.5 -110, you'd win 5094 and lose 4906. You'd win $509,400 and lose $539,660, which nets you a loss of $30,260. If you bet +12.5 -105 10,000 times for $100, you lose 5000 and win 5000. You'd win $500,000 and lose $525,000, netting you a loss of $25,000. You lose less with +12.5 -105. However, both are BAD wagers.

Durito, I remeber when I used to rip on you and donny for making fun of posters, but after reading this shit for this long I completely understand. It's infuriating.
