50-50 CHANCE OF WINNING A BET

Welcome to another edition of Sports Betting Lessons, this is Professor Jeffdstuff, the prof with the stuff, and I will teach you another very important principle about sports betting. Yup, you read it right, you'll be unceremoniously schooled, again.

In our new lesson, I will teach you the one thing sports bettors don't want to hear.

Anyone just has a 50-50 chance of winning a bet.

Most gamblers don't want to hear this phrase, in fact, most of them don't even want to believe in it. Well folks, stop being a joke, because believe it or not, your chances of winning in the sport of gambling is never better than 50-50.

Take for example in roulette, there are eighteen red numbers eighteen black numbers, plus the 0 and 00. That's about a 50-50 chance of one of those two colors will show.

The same goes if you bet odd or even in roulette. There are eighteen odd numbers and there are eighteen even numbers. Even high-low bets offer you a 50-50 chance of winning. Eighteen numbers that go from 1-18 are low and eighteen numbers that go from 19-36 are high.

In team sports games, you get to choose one between the two competing teams, hence giving you a 50-50 chance. If you choose the Boston Celtics over the Detroit Pistons, which in my opinion will be utterly stupid, there's a 50-50 chance that the Pistons will beat the Celtics and cream you down.

My point is, no matter how good a handicapper you are, you and that bum on the street both have a 50-50 chance in winning here in this world of sports betting. It's just a matter of how good you can will your team to win the game and how loud you can root for your bet.

That's it for this edition of Sports Betting Lessons. Keep your eyes glued on my pages because it might just be a matter of time before ''The Stuff'', Jeffdstuff, schools you yet again.
