I wanted to place a £20 bet on a football match. The odds were 2-1. A freind of mine offered to predict the score of the match before it started for £5. He assured me that his predictions have been 100% accurate for the past five matches. Do you think I should take him up on the offer?

				No.  past experience is no indication of future results.

 But I could also say that he will definately make a correct prediction this time too

				And probability is speaking against him, too.

				I'm not sure how bets work.  If the favorite wins, how much do you get?

				If its 2-1 then you get double your bet

				No the other way.

				Yes, you should take him up on the offer.  The score before the game begins is always 0-0.  He has no excuse for not being 100% accurate.
