Now the term "good things", refers to what chance of winning? Would that not be represented in your price?
In my opinion, a good thing will not lose unless something freakish happens. A good thing would be value if you could get more than your money back.
You rate a team at $1.4 giving them a 72% chance of winning. How exactly does the term "good things" change that?
Are you saying that it will win, but you won't back it at less than $1.40? |
