Would you take this bet? ;D

This bet on Formula 1 



In case you're wondering if it's not already a done deal, no, Piastri has 5 wins, so he needs another two for the bet to be won.
Worth it? (Big /S)

CMIIW, but with odds of 1.0, I will be getting no profits from that bet?

It was really unfortunate the accident that cost Verstappen the tournament. I could place a bet on Lando Norris for a chance to win something.

Is that the odd of the first option? That is Piastri? 1.0?  if this is really the odd, then I won't take the bet, nor any other bet on the other options left on the table..

I am not into betting on race, and this is not because I don't love the game, i would say that I somehow have some special kind of love for car and bike race, but time won't permit me to begin to show interest in watching and getting to know more about the game..

Speaking of that Piastri guy already winning 5 games and only left with 2 more wins to go, one would assume that he could easily win the remaining two races since he could win five in a row, but then, the odd of 1.0 isn't worth the risk at all regardless of how much I will be betting, there is almost no chance of profit but chance of losing money is very high, so I won't be taking the bet, it's way way too risky.

If the bet is on Piastri I think the eldest would say no, also because where would the profit be?
If I risk making a senseless bet, I risk with the hope of winning something good, otherwise what could be the point?
Sure it's funny, maybe someone wanted to make their bet anyway?

I’m assuming there’s a decimal number after that 1.0 or else this is just  bullshit odds placement for this event. They should just close the market or at least removed Piastri on the choices since there’s nothing to gain on betting him.

Maybe the odds is 1.00xxxx something like that which gives a very small return when the player won.

1.0 odds doesn’t make sense while this race is not even a guaranteed win.

Nope, it's zero zero zero...() endless!
The problem is that there was a huge move on the exchange betting on this and it pushed the odds below what Betfair takes, that's 1.002.
Their system is just old as hell, bugs keep popping up,and you have a situation like this.

For example, this is the lowest odds they can take



This is for 10+ races (unlike the 7 above) and it has Piastri at 1.002.

Normally things should be like this:

Max has already won 2, so the bet is already a win, no point letting people bet on it even at 1:1.

I will not bet on such odd because nothing is going to come out from it even if I win the bet, unless it's a free bonus from the casino. You know, most casinos, the more of games a bettor add, the casino will give the bettor additional bonus but in such odd, if the bonus is removed, nothing will be added when you win, only you wagers amount. However, I might chose to risk what I can afford to lose on the 6 odd because if I'm lucky to win, I will get profits from it.

Who will take a bet on a 1.0 odds, it will be a total waste of time and just risking your money on a bet that you are sure that there won't be any profits from the bet.

If you see any one taking this kind of bet, it means that their are just trying to meet the 1x wagering requirement on their deposits, this the only valid reason why anyone will take a bet of 1.0 odd.

The risk isn't worth taking because it's not going to add anything to your stake. I haven't really seen a bookmaker putting an odd on a game, I think the value is going to increase a little bit, even if you win the bet place on them 1.0 is still the same thing as 1, so you are going to get your money back. That isn't a bet if you ask me, it's going to be very painful if you end up losing the bet. The game looks like a trap

[Slow death]

I wonder why anyone would put money on this 1.14 odd? Even if the guy got it right, the profit would be so low that he wouldn't be able to celebrate. The guy would be risking an amount of money where the reward if he got it right wouldn't give him a decent profit to bet on another race or game. That's why whenever I see someone post that they won but with such low odds like these, I usually laugh a lot. It doesn't make sense to take that risk unless the person was putting a lot of odds like that on a parlay to have high odds.

The F1 bets on winners are not so much fun imho.
Max has its chances, but to get first to 7 wins... he needs the car fixed and (see Yuki) they're not there yet. No nope.
And betting at such odds on Lando or (heh) Oscar is not fun.

[danherbias07]

I am guessing that Norris is x1.0 because he is the most possible winner for the 7 races, but I would not bet anything on it. Would you really risk betting on Max? Or, would it really take Norris to win it with those low profits even if it's possible?

Okay, it's alright if you are betting millions of dollars because you can still feel the profits. But if you are just an average gambler who would put $10 in it, then I'd rather not, especially on Max. Just enjoy the race and predict what you want, but I would not dare put any money on it.

[DaNNy001]

As someone that has been betting for a while you should know odds to avoid, this is clearly one of them... winning the game if you go with the lowest odd is only going to give you a refund, what good is that going to be? I don't know much about this sport but from my experience with soccer betting i know that there are certain games that you are supposed to avoid and this seems to be one of such games

I’m yet to bet on Formula 1 yet, never really took to the sport but, haven’t gambled away some books for quite sometime, seems there is only a one odd with profit on it there and that is Max Verstappen with 6.00 odds, if those are the probable multipliers. Now that could mean high stake risk while, Oscar Piastri with 1 for odds simply means, you are getting your money back, after having to risk all, you don’t get no reward and Lando Norris just gives you a little above 10% of your money.

Now why would I want to make such bet… I’ll simply seat back and enjoy the race.

Taking a bet on 1.0 odd is a waste of money and a waste of time like the way you say it, gamblers that normally bet on such small odds are always been to careful whenever they are making their predictions. But sometimes taking too much small odds will make you lose your bets. When a gambler take too much small odds on their predictions they will end up selecting the bad game that will make them lose their bet.

[Ziskinberg]

What kind of odds are those? Why is 1.0 even being offered? Bookies must be out of their minds, it almost feels like a trap for gamblers.

I’m not too familiar with betting on this particular sport, though I watch it from time to time. But just looking at the odds, 1.0 is definitely not worth it. I’d rather just sit back, watch the game, and enjoy a cold beer at the table.

Those odds look weird, I've never seen such odds in sportsbook, even a match between strong & weak teams will produce better odds even if you choose the strong team, let's say @1,1 or @1,15. I personally would pass on that, getting a small profit with what I feel is a bigger risk, because we really don't know what will happen next.

Worth it?

Yes, for money launderers .

And maybe a newbie too who don't yet understand anything about betting and don't know what he or she is doing, I don't see any reason why I will choose to bet on a game with 1.0 odd because I want to meet 1x wager requirements, since there is only the chance of losing money and no chance of making any profit when I win, I don't see the essence.

People don't gamble to only get their initial stake back, they gamble to get both stake and profit back, in this type of bet, it's a wasted effort, the risk is absolutely not worth taking when profit can not be made, this is what I think and I did rather risk the money on another game where I stand the chance of making profit if I win.

Yeah, those odds don't really make sense. A 1.0 line screams "danger" to me. It’s almost like they're trying to lure people in with a false sense of security.

Bookies often set lines that look tempting, but they know how to balance their books. Sometimes, it feels like they want you to take that bait and then hit you with unexpected outcomes.

If you’re not deep into betting on F1, it might be better to just enjoy the race without the pressure of wagering. I’ve been there watching the race and just chilling sounds way more enjoyable than stressing over odd lines.
