    Multiple choice gambling question.. and 10 Free betpoints..

    Boys, lets test your knowledge here. it's a simple multiple choice. First 10 posters to get it right, get 1 sbr pt each.. Take a guess if you want.


    Which has the highest probability of happening??



    a) You bet the fav -2000/+1400, and you go 9-0.

    b) You bet the fav -300/+250 and you go 2-0.

    c) You bet the fav -130/+110 and you go 1-0

    d) You bet the fav -900/+650 and you go 4-0

    e) Steve Nash takes 6 Free Throws and goes 6 for 6

    f) Shaq takes 1 Free Throw and goes 1 for 1.



    I will give right answer later on.


    Good luck

    Interesting one for the OP here.
    You are right if based on this season's FT stats.
    You are wrong based on career FT stats.

    One point isn't worth doing the math so I will jump on the Shaq bandwagon with F and hope Nicky has some trick/assumption up his sleeve that everyone else is missing....
