loopdokter it’s in relevance of a fraction, so 50,000 chances to 1 that they will do x. Don’t quote me on that because I don’t bet on sports based upon odds or really at all, but that’s my understanding.
Well I am going to quote you on that, because even a cursory glance at the numbers alongside what you posted earlier will show that you’d have to be absolutely retarded or with zero knowledge of a tournament whatsoever to recognise that what you posted as your “understanding” is clearly nonsense.
For what you said to be right, then the favourites for the whole tournament, Brazil, would only be expected to win the tournament once in every 500 hypothetical tournaments?! Even though there are only 32 teams? Ermmmm….
As @vinnyt77 pointed out, Brazil’s odds are 5-1 to win, and the US odds show how much you’d be expected to win if you bet $100 on the option.
