Fixed Odds Sports Betting

• Gambling and investing have one primary aim in common: to make a profit. Furthermore, both gamblers and investors speculate on the chances of making a profit, by taking a risk in the hope of gaining an advantage.Perhaps the most obvious apparent difference between gambling and investing concerns the level of exposure to risk as a result of any speculation to gain an advantage. For most fixed odds bets, the risk is infinite: that is, if the bettor is wrong, he loses his entire stake.By contrast, the investor is very unlikely to lose all his money, and may choose to withdraw any remaining capital invested if its value falls. The bettor, however, usually knows in advance what he will win if his speculation proves correct.
