About even money bets they say you can not gain plus 1 unit flat betting and win more overall then you lose as there does not exist a positive expectation.
We know the game has a negative expectation, but how close can we get hovering around break even point or even reach a positive tram during periods of time playing.
That is a question i ask.
I try out a bet selection with even money bets using the odds 2 against 1 to see how it preforms.
The math behind flat betting is very simple.
Lets assume we say that we try to win plus 1 unit for each session.
Then plus 1 unit has to overcome the amount of attempts we using to achieve plus 1 unit.
With this experiment we use two attempts for each attack to gain plus 1 unit.
