If someone told you a guaranteed sports bet that had a 100% chance of winning, how much would you bet on it?

If you had a $10,000 bankroll, would you go all in? We’re talking 100% can’t lose bet.

Would you take out a loan? How would you go about acquiring a large sum of money if you didn’t have the capital.

Let’s say the match is starting 24 hours from now, what would be your plan to maximize your profit?

Asking for a friend  Wink

Obviously there is no such thing as a bet with a 100% chance of winning, so I imagine that there is some irregularity in this that could be:
- A bug detected on the website;
- Bribing a player so that he commits a foul, an own goal, or even causes an expulsion, etc.

Thinking about these hypotheses, I would certainly not even make that bet, because first:
It's illegal... although money is never too much, you need to understand the morality of this issue and also the risks involved. Certainly my imprisonment for justice is not worth the money earned.
Consequently, because it is doing something illegal, there is a possibility that the site will detect the fraud and block all the money invested in the bet, money that will never return to the player.

If your 100% winning bet isn't illegal, I would certainly bet good money (not my entire investment, let alone loans). But I don't see that this is possible.
a bet with a 100% winning chance? Imagine that. As 'imaginative' as they may be, your theories offer a plethora of entertaining nonsense. Bribing players due to a bug on the website. You make an accurate appraisal of the morality and legality. Nonetheless, there's a noticeable lack of maturity. Gambling is all about excitement, risk, and uncertainty. Maybe one should stick to bonds and fixed deposits if they want guarantees?

And then there's this gem - "If your 100% winning bet isn't illegal, I would certainly bet good money". Wow, what faulty reasoning. Even if betting were a science, I doubt its theorem would state that anything is 100% certain. Hey, everyone enjoys a good laugh sometimes. I toast to your novel perspective on the unlikely


Bribing any players is a reality for some smaller leagues but that information are mostly classified and just for the inner circle only because they are the ones who will benefit best from it as for them, it's a business day and for some reasons, they might need that loss or win, either way, we just don't know why.

And for simple terms, to us, the gambler, there's a slight chance that we will have this kind of information as it's not that shared on the outside. And if you're a bettor, then you surely aren't from the inner circle because if you are already benefitting from it in the first place then surely you don't have to wager any money towards it. Makes sense right.
Totally that something an information that wont really go out so easily or would really be known if ever there would really be some plans in speaking about rigging or fixing a match.This is why if ever we do see someone

who do make out some claims that they do have some insider information then i wouldn't really be tending on buying out if ever we do see these things around.Its true that its not an information that you could really be able to see on public places or social medias. This is why 99% or even 100% of them are just pretending or simply faking out and luring in people to believe on what he's been saying.This is why it is really that totally risky when you do maximize out your potential profit and taking up some loan just to bet on a certain game just because you've been saying that there is really that match fixing? You dont even know about its source.

Also, when it comes to total gambling or betting experience then it would really be that enjoyable and thrilling if you are the ones who do make out such bet choice rather than on relying into others.
Its not really that something that could assure out some win and also it wont really be that much regretable if ever you had made out the wrong choice.

It will be a big risk for sure because in gambling, there wouldn't be any guarantee that the result would be 100% sure and accurate. It could change anytime no matter what basis we may have for prediction. Also, it wouldn't be wise to take loans just to gamble. We should still know our limitations especially in taking risks. Don't go all in if you can't deal with the possible result of losing. It's better to allocate only the funds that we could afford in gamble and don't listen too much to hearsays because everyone can easily say that there would be best results but there will never be any assurance.

If there is someone telling me that there is 100% winning bet, I will not trust it in the first place.
There is no such thing in this gambling industry, no 100% winning chance so I cant imagine how to deal with it.
However even if I'm sure for a bet, I will not go all in, it is better to safe than sorry later.
Taking a loan for it? Of course not, that's too risky and I can even say that it is dumb.

You forgot to mention the main point in your "hypothetical" question guy, at which odds you can take this bet precisely? In other words how much you could expect to win from your stake? Because if it's less than <1.10 I wouldn't take the risk, it could be a scam, or sportbooks could spot something strange, cancel the bet and lock your funds while asking many questions and documents in order to get back your deposit even if you've been cautious, if some other guys haven't been so cautious and have made mistakes.

This kind of "inner circle" information is usually kept very secret. As a "semi-professional gambler", my advice? Always approach betting as a game of skill, not insider info.

People who know? Most likely, they're not betting. So, we regular gamblers have to play with the cards we're given. We work on our skills, learn about statistics and chances, and come up with plans. Putting your money on secret goals? Risky business! Instead, pay attention to facts and chances. In gambling, being right isnt about what people say; its about what you know. Its not about how many tricks you know, but how you use them.

I've heard someone say something like that a few times in the world of gambling and I think it's just a strategy to trick gamblers into making bigger bets.
If I master a bet that is said, I better analyze the odds first. I will not easily believe someone if he says big odds and 100% if we bet on that bet even though I know someone who says that well.
I will still bet with the capital I have, if I don't have enough capital I won't take the risk of taking out any loans to bet.
This often happens in the gambling world because saying something like that will change a person's psychology drastically, and he will think that it is possible to get something. But they don't think about whether it's really possible, let alone the words they get from the world of gambling, where losses will occur more often than wins. And rather than experiencing something we don't want, it's better if we keep betting with the capital we have and don't need to take any bigger risks. That is enough for us because if we lose, we have to accept the risk of losing a very large amount of money, which people usually cannot afford.

Hmm so this sound like a match-fixing? But after I verify that it's legit, of course I will bet most of my money and I can even sell my house and everything only for it. I will also borrow money because happenings like this can be once in a lifetime only so I should use all of my chances now.

This hypothetical question OP is real to him but sadly he becomes a victim of false information since he literally lose big time amount by betting huge bets on the match that was supposed to be 100% win according to this https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.62775177.

Lesson learned is to never trust somone offering a 100% sure win on sportsbook since fixed match is very rare and you don’t know if the player will follow or not because it’s their choice and they have the chance to backout when they are about to be caught.

Thats a big risk. Though it is a confirmed bet I believe we need luck to win bets. I've come across articles in which a person placed bet @1.01 lost the bet. Here he had place a big amount as bet, if he had won he could've got 12k as profit. This means the bet value is more than a million. What he had taken is a risk but on something like a confirmed winning bet. What happened at the end. The same could happen, so better is to examine with small fund that doesn't affect the living even when the bet is lost.

I wouldn't take a loan from the bank, but perhaps from close friends and family in order to increase my bet size and claim the free money. Though for sure if it's a 100% guaranteed win, the odds will be extremely low or even close to 1 to which only those who have huge bets will profit. I'm also sure that the oddsmakers also know about this and will surely be shifting the advantage to those whom they work for, so it's only a worthwhile bet to those who have deep pockets, for sure.

Would I have known that it is a guaranteed win? The fact that you'd have to trust the person's best intentions about it is already a dealbreaker for me, but at the same time I may humor the idea especially if it's someone who was able to prove that what they are trying to say is indeed true. In which case, I may gamble all my bankroll for that bet and take my winnings, however high they must be. Losses are off the table anyway and the only thing that's preventing me from getting that win is the confidence to trust in someone I barely know. Otherwise if they weren't able to prove their credibility by showing me past eventualities or at least evidences that lead me to think that they are correct, I'm inclined to not believe them and not gamble. I still would humor the idea and I may put in a couple hundred dollars on it though.

Knowing fully well that there is no guarantee bet, and also there is nothing like sure odds, so if anyone is so convinced about his bet and wants men to risk an amount on it, I will try not to put my two feet, so I will only stake an amount I can afford to lose and that is all about that because I have hard several of experiences of those sure games and sometime some of them will even go as far as asking for a fee before giving out such sure odds.
So the ultimate goal is to win and in winning there is a high level of luck and there is nothing like sure games, any game can either lose or win, so it can go both ways for games.

This is a mind tempting question because this alone can test our ability to make decisions. The question can also test our greediness level and see if we can make proper decisions in time of challenges. If this eventually be a scenerio which I am involved, I would rather us like $100 to make the bet so that I can weigh my risk to reward ratio than using big fund to make the bet and the worse now happens. I have been in similar conditions like this before and I knew what I passed through because of my greediness to bet with funds I can't afford to lose.

Wait, what? Is there anything like a 100% guarantee in sports betting, not even the sports bookies will tell me to go all in and will do that, the same way there are chances of winning so there are high chances of losing, and if you lose, you will have no one t blame but yourself, and you know what, whenever I have a bankroll on $10,000, I will never use that on a bet, life is not all about betting, I will take my chances on other aspects of life; Bettin $10k for a bet is not even fun to me, that's more like a stupid idea.

There are insiders that give hint to their client.  They have information about a fights that are getting rigged.  Though I can't prove it that way, but I believe that there is something the same happening inside a league.  Those that have authority, influence and money can manipulate the result of the game reason why there had been an endless rumor about several sports game being rigged.  Anyway, this is hypothetical questions so being realistic about the event is out of the question.

In a real clause, whenever I hear anyone say a bet is 100% guaranteed to win, I do ignore them but in this situation, I will give it a try with another shot at funds that I don't need that time, perhaps max is going to be $100 and if that happens, I will be giving it a shot when there is a called but I wouldn't raise my wager, better to play safe and win for tomorrow or wager all your capital and go home without any means of having another money to play the next day.

But as I said this is hypothetical question, so it doesn't need to be entirely true since the question already present itself as not possible and is a matter of "just in case".

If the bet had a 100% chance of winning, I'd definitely go all in. However, I'd still have that lingering feeling of a potential loss even if the bet is guaranteed.

Events in the future aren't ever truly guaranteed at 100%, IMO anything could change. OK To be honest, I'd aim to wager as much as possible but not absolutely everything. I prefer to avoid potential trouble in case that something impossible occurs. So I'd likely use the money that I could afford to lose only for that one specific bet.


There’s really no 100% guaranteed win bet but since this is a hypothetical question then you should consider is as guaranteed which in realistically speaking, I will go all-in including loans to increase my bet size since this is one time opportunity of your life.

Why the need to worried if the bet is guaranteed? We are not talking about real life bets here. I think the main point on this thread if will user follow human behavior for doing all in bet or will still doubt in the presence of opportunity like this.
You would really be always having those kind of doubts considering we do know on how reality works and on how it do moves on which gambling is certain that no 100% assurance of winning unless if it is really that been
fixed but just like on what most people been saying here that this kind of information isnt something that you could really get easily and on which that certain poster above me ^^ showing OP's recent bet picks
and locking up the thread so that people cant make a comment or post in case it would be a losing bet?  Grin Clever one.

@NAPK1NS_RA3, what happened to your prediction of this "guaranteed bet"?

the time is now 12:49pm ET, the match starts in about 11 minutes



these are guaranteed bets but I can’t say how I know, expect plenty of goals and little defence

You locked the thread too soon, so we couldn't comment on the match result.  Wink
