oh yeah enough on betting theory...... here's something on number theory....

$0.50 + $0.50 + $0.50 + $0.50 does not equal $1.00 !
also
0.5% does not equal 1.0%
what a difference such itty bitty numbers can make.

Kelly offers little protection for the money you do have.
50% chance of losing half your bank with Kelly resizing

One of the reasons its advised to not bet full Kelly is because in the real world if may be hard to accurately know ones advantage.

I got news for you:

$0.50 = $1.00 all by itself and

0.5% of 1.0% = 2%.

Also, you can watch movies instantly on your computer with Netflix!

Okay ,Sage, push the button, but first, you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya, punk?

"I's gots to know."
