    Luck versus value betting BASKET

    This topic will randomly pick games with the odds 2.00 up to 6.00 to see if there is a big difference using your value betting skill rather then bet randomly.
    Will be staking between 1 to 5 units.

    The idea comes from a Monkey who won the Swedish Stockmarket Championship predicting randomly what stocks would win and profit more then traders would predict.
    They use notes on a Dart Target and the Monkey throw Darts and randomly hit different notes with stocks.

    Now I will explain the random process.
    Each day I will go to Betfair and look at the daily board of Basket games.
    I ignore what teams that play and what league.
    Just pick the first best odds matching 2.00 and if there is no match I pick the closest one.
    Same for odds 3.00 and 6.00.

    I have some structure behind how the random process work.
    Will use binomial probability calculation where the following odds has 50% chance to succeed winning or losing.

    2.00 has 50% chance of winning during one attempt
    3.00 has 50% chance winning during two attempts.
    6.00 has 50% chance winning during four attempts.
