BETTING TO LOSE ?

Posted: November 5th, 2007

Have you ever considered betting to LOSE ?

Sportsbooks and Bookmakers do it all the time. Why ? Because the result of the sporting event doesn’t matter they still put money in there pockets.

It is really pretty simple, a sportsbook just has to bet both sides and they get there money from the vigourish (the money you pay for them to take your bet). With that being said it isn’t hard to put the fix on,or to know what horse to bet against. Consider having for-knowledge as to whether or not a horse gets a drink of water before a race. That is great information, especially when you are betting to LOSE. Everyone knows a horse will be pretty lethargic with abelly full of water.

I know there are drug restrictions for horses , steroids, barbituates, and whatever. But you can’t test a horse or punish an owner for letting a horse drink water. “You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink. This always has and will always be an incentive to bet to LOSE. What can you do? Everyone wins , the government gets the tax money and the sportsbook and bookmakers make thier share. So do not be suprised if you here about someone betting to LOSE.

So make your most educated bet when making a wager and realize some people bet to LOSE !
