Title: Re: Odds Post by: Indestructable on December 04, 2007, 09:40:41 PM Well 90% of players are allways going to lose if pay outs are for 10% only, but I guess an argument will be that some are more likely to lose than others.

Title: Re: Odds Post by: Karabiner on December 05, 2007, 12:23:56 AM Good players are a lot better than 90/1 And they have indestructible egos ;) Title: Re: Odds Post by: RichEO on December 05, 2007, 07:37:44 AM Good players are a lot better than 90/1 You mean 9/1 ? And more importantly, you can cash more more than 10 times you buy in. So you don't need to be better than 9/1 to cash if you place high enough.
