And yet the ditz won't offer to bet that he can win 45% unless
he's allowed to bet both the favorite and the underdog in the same game.
After all, isn't that how touts operate, advising half of their "clients"
to bet the favorite, and advising the other half to bet the dog?
Since you think it's standard for the person proposing the wager
to put his money into escrow first, is that what you'll do before
anyone accepts your challenge?
