the odds are slightly in your favor due to the the -130 and the direction that line has moved. but im guessing the bet has -eg for you, so maybe you will learn a lesson for once. or more likely i will spew away some more money to the mathematically challenged like i have all year.
 
Durito, I think the odds are in my favor due to what I "presume" to know about the teams involved. I don't want you to feel pressured into accepting this or any other bet over ego or anything other than you think you have an edge.

I was messing with you prior to the "you won't go 50%" comment and then took it seriously after that. You have done right by me (even though I did earn it) already with the Durito 500 so I am not looking to take further advantage of your generosity. Accept this bet because you think I don't know crap or because you feel you have an advantage, don't accept this because you think I will learn something because honestly, I won't.

Just to be clear, not that you don't understand but in case anyone wants to "what if" (Archie) it to death.

1-1 = PUSH
1-0-1 = PUSH
0-0-2 =PUSH

It's 2-0 or 0-2 only.

Actually because this came about because you said I wouldn't go 50% there is one scenario that I forgot in which gives you a chance to win as well. If I go 0-1-1 you still win $400.
So to be clear I only win by going 2-0 and you win if I go 0-2 or 0-1-1. See, you do have an edge.
 
You don't know more than the market. Period. Your program is a basic model built off a piece of shit public ranking system that loses ever year ats.

The bet is basically a toss up, no value for either of us. I presume $400 is a far larger % of your bankroll however than mine and that flipping a coin twice for $400 is not a good idea for you. Since I doubt you will learn anything either way, it's completely pointless. But, it's just $400. I'll have over 300 wagers all for more than that this week alone.

you said 2-0 or 0-2, i would have called 0-1-1 a push

Guy, why can't you accept a bet or deny a bet and leave it at that? Why the need to try and prove your superior bankroll availability or insult a portion of what I apply to selecting games? I was cool with things up until this point but this post pretty much pisses me off.
 
Wally, if you played 18 holes of golf with Tiger Woods and in the course of the 18 holes you chipped in 5 times and Tiger never chipped in, would you walk away from that round of golf thinking you had a better short game than Tiger?
