If I gave you 5:1 on Sauce to win this thing, would you take it?

i could be wrong about the point you're trying to make but these numbers dont illustrate it: no some1 shouldn't take that.

With regards to A)

Quite a bit of difference btw 5:1 and 105%, which is the context of my comment.
If I argued for WCG being a nice favorite, it would not make sense to me to bet on Sauce to 105%. Bringing up 5:1 is just ridicilous in this match-up.
I got no clue on math, but from a gut instinct point of view it doesn't make sense to me at 105 if a person believes WCG is quite a bit better.
Just my opinion bro, bet all ya want, the more action the more interest and better.

B)

Sauce plays poker differently than other people. I'd love to see him win this.

Assuming a standard deviation of around 150, I would probably take it.

Well, they are starting tomorrow and I may not even check back on this thread, but just in case I guess:

I will take Sauce +120 for a few thousand. PM.

I will take Doug +120 for a few thousand. PM.

If anybody wants to take on both bets (for at least $500 each), I'll agree to lower the odds on each to +112.

that would be a big mistake imo. and i think the stdev will likely be a fair bit higher (which would help you but even at 180 its still a rather large mistake). not sure if its my place to go all strat itt about how to get the numbers so ill just leave it at that, i guess.

but ill add that i think its 95% likely the edge is between -5 and +5 and probably 75% likely -3 and +3. big blinds*

From his blog on Leggo:
Pretty excited for this, rooting for my good friend WCGrider to beat the god of poker known as sauce. I want some side action, betting on WCGrider's side. PM me offers, poker is exciting once again.
