It's realistic enough as that was the lu that finished the game vs stoke, and coincided with pool looking the best.

Okay. I'm not sure of this theory anymore when I think of it. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but here it goes:

Okay so let's say you get 1:1 odds and use the bet for that. Let's say you bet 25 dollars free bet. Let's say your team wins 50% of the time to make it simple, so 100% return. If we do like 94% return on both multipliers, I think the math would be the same.

So 50% of the time you win 25 dollars = 12.5 dollars on average of EV

50% of the time you lose nothing cos it was a free bet = 0 dollars on average of EV

So you win 12.5 dollars on average every time you bet.

Then let's say you're getting 16:1 odds. 25 dollars free bet. So your team wins 1 out of 17 times, whatever percentage that is.

So 1 out of 17 times you win 400 dollars = 23.5294118 dollars on average of EV

16 out of 17 times you lose nothing cos free bet = 0 dollars of EV

So you win 23.5 dollars on average when you bet.

idk there's a chance I'm wrong, but there's my math.

I hope that's the starting lineup personally.

With Lovren in? that's offensive
08-17-2015 , 01:59 PM
Source is wrong. Ibe and Lallana start.
08-17-2015 , 02:00 PM
I had not seen Joe Gomez before but wasn't he very right-footed playing the left-back?


Rodgers and his ideas at it again I guess.

Spoiler:

No Sahko in the side again. Disappointed that there weren't some changes.

No. Rodgers doesn't rate him yet starts Lovren every game. Makes no sense.
08-17-2015 , 02:16 PM
Tweeted Ibe to let him know he is my fantasy team...hope he can handle the pressure

this reasoning would be right if you didn't get your original stake back but i'm afraid that if you bet 25$ at evens, you get 50$back not 25$ so 50$ half the time and 0 the other half = 25$ of EV

Talking of free bets Pokerstars are doing bet £10 pre match on this Pool game (min odds 1.5) and get a free in play bet of £10.

You don't get your stake back on free bets.

It makes no sense for Lallana and Coutinho to play at the same time. They do the exact same things in the same areas and get in each other's way.

then raheem is right. lower odds bet depend more on the value of getting original stake back. if you don't get it back higher odds bet have more value

08-17-2015 , 02:43 PM
Lallana shouldn't play because he sucks balls.
