how much did u put on the 1.07

answer is no btw. 1.50 is gonna have value if say you get to pick 28 roulette numbers instead of 24.

How can you remember that? I had to dig into my history to find a thread from November. Back then I just said I hated low odds, now I say it's impossible to make money from them. You can check your thread and see how much you made below 1.7, I bet it's not much because those odds are a waste of goddamn time. I'd rather hit 50% at 2.5 than 60% at 1.7 and that's what I do.

And what is your example supposed to mean? You don't get those odds at roulette and you can't hit 85% by picking favs or totals at 1.5 no matter what. If you're a soccer genius in the top 0.1% you may be able to hit 70% at 1.5 but if not you're better off with the higher odds because apparently the market isn't as efficient there.

I would bet nobody on this board has made a profit in the 1.0-1.7 odds range after 1000+ bets. I crush it at higher odds but no matter what I do the lower odds are just utterly worthless(read: break even if you're decent). For example I had Young Boys @2.75 which won 5:1, classic high confidence value pick. Then there was Mannheim @1.07 which I grabbed blindly for value because other books like 365 had them at 1.01(-10000 for you yanks). They lost 2:0, I grabbed the dog live at evens to get out of that mess.

Anyway, it doesn't matter what market I choose, low odds are always bad news. I know a couple of very sharp guys and 98% of their bets are above the worthless odds range, I don't think that's a coincidence.

Come on Gaze, you've abandoned every thread you ever made. The only thing you crushed is your poor mothers' hope of you finding a real job.

Happy you clown? Low odds are for suckers and action junkies.
