Football pool probabilites...
Maybe i'm missing something.
I am in a football pool that you pick with lines. Assume there are 4 players, and 4 games, and the probability of winning each individual game is 50%. Name/Team1/Team2/Team3/Team4 Alf/A/C/E/G Bob/A/D/E/H Cat/A/C/F/H Don/B/D/F/H (basically, Don is the only player to take team B, the rest split on the other games.) If there is a tie, a winner is chosen randomly. I ran a 21k sim, and have the probabilies: Alf: 22.6% Bob: 22.5% Cat: 23.4% Don: 31.5% Can I extrapolate this, and say when I play in my football pools, i should try and pick the opposite of what other people have? |
