If you want a safer bet with a lower payout, go with OU.
If you want a riskier bet with a higher payout, go with Texas.


Honestly, sports gambling is stupid. You have absolutely no control over the outcome of the event, whereas in other forms of gambling there's skill involved like in poker, blackjack, or even roulette(with the right betting system you can virtually play for hours and leave breaking-even or profiting).

Roulette you cannot, as it is not perfect odds. If the table has one zero, you get 35-1 odds on a table that has 37 possible outcomes. 38 if there is a double zero also.

Craps is the better option as it is often perfect odds.

Also, go texas, but they will loose by 14

Actually, you can. By placing your initial bets on two of the 2-1 squares, and and then doubling your previous bet on each square every time you lose both bets. The trick is to take out enough money to double-up after as many consecutive losses you think will occur while you're at the table. I don't know the chances off the top of my head, but you have to figure that after 15-20 consecutive times of it landing on a number in the third 2-1 square, 0, or 00 that it will hit a good number.

If you put your money on Texas, you need Texas to win or for them to only lose by less than 6.5 points.

Putting your money on Oklahoma means not only do you need Oklahoma to win, but they also need to win by at least 6.5 points.

Roulette has the worst odds of any game in the casino. It draws people because it's fun to watch.

Blackjack and craps are the two games you can reliably play for long periods of time and not lose money, as long as you don't get into stupidass hard way etc bets in craps.

Did you even read my post?

I'm not disagreeing with you about blackjack and craps, I'm just saying that it can be done with roulette too.

Except it can't. You'll lose your money five times as fast playing roulette as compared to the other games. Ten times if you're playing Don't and giving the odds in craps.

Go to a roulette table and do what I said to do in my other post:

Put your money on TU. Oklahoma reallies on their defense, so the game will likely be low scoring, favoring the underdog in the point spread.
OU will win though.

Given infinity money, yes, you can guarantee you'll always get back to even. But four straight spins of 3rd when you had 1st and 2nd and you're out of money.

This. I'm guessing that OU will win but not cover.
