    what are the odds of hitting
    10 games in a row based on a -110 line if you tried this 100 times would you ever do it

    imo this is truly hard as hell if you doubled up 10 times from 50.00 you would have 50,000 easily possibly more even 5 wins in a row

    50 100 200 400 800 1,000

    50 to 1,000 in 5 games is freaking amazing it is making me think -110 lines are harder and harder to pick.............

        If this interests you should take a intro stats course.

        Assuming -110 lines are a coin fip (i.e. 50%) the odds of hitting ten in a row are (.50)^10=0.0977% or 1 in 1024

        The odds of hitting 10 in a row at least once after trying 10 times are: 1-((1-0.000977)^10)=0.972%

          benjy your math is right but -110 = 52.38%

            I nailed 18 straight one time ... There is a guy who frequents this site who was there(capped with me) when I did it ....

            Not all -110 though, some were baseball games ... Makes me mortal, I guess ...

              9.31% of hitting 1 or more at .50
              14.41% of hitting 1 or more at .5238
