These are just three examples of bets that are "sure to hit" that the public just hammer and then the outcome is not good. Granted Kimbo actually won his fight but at odds as high as -600 the fight should not have been that close.
6 million was bet on Big Brown at the track today ,can only imagine how much was bet offshore. Most people don't follow horse racing and just jump on when they hear about a triple crown threat and tons of people probably bit on the -400 odds that big brown was offering just so they can have a peice of history.Look how that turned out.
I through in Mike Tyson as well because I remember one of Tyson's last fights against that English guy that knocked him out. I wasn't betting that big at the time but I remember biting on the -600 odds that he had to beat this stiff and everyone was saying it would be in the first round blah blah and he goes out and loses.
Just goes to show that nothing is for sure.If its to good to be true then it should probably be left alone.
