n 1986 a guy got kicked out of every casino in Vegas for counting cards. So he flew to Hong Kong with $180,000 and started betting on horses instead.
He walked away with almost $900 million.
It was Bill Benter.
He realized horse racing was just another counting problem same math, more moving parts.
He and a partner built a computer model that estimated the true odds of each horse. If his numbers showed an edge, he bet. If not, he skipped it.
That’s the whole trick:
Expected value.
EV = p · b − (1 − p)
Only bet when the probability of winning × the potential payout is greater than the chance of losing.
What’s even crazier is that Benter once gave a 45-minute lecture explaining the math behind his system.
That recording was never supposed to become public.
And almost nobody knows it exists.
This is the lecture that professional bettors and hedge fund analysts studied.
The answer is in this video.

One of the most dangerously humane things I have ever seen. What a genuinely kind man.

Si vous avez l'occasion d'aller prochainement dans la région de Cologne, profitez-en pour entrer dans le château d'Augustusburg, situé à Brühl.
Vous pourrez y admirer son grand escalier, un chef-d'œuvre de l'architecture rococo.
Imaginé et conçu par le célèbre architecte Balthasar Neumann entre 1743 et 1748, il unit le marbre, le stuc, les colonnes de jaspe et des caryatides dans un mouvement ascendant spectaculaire qui donne une impression de légèreté et d'envol.
La voûte, quant à elle, est couronnée par une monumentale fresque en trompe-l'œil peinte par l'artiste italien Carlo Carlone.
À savoir, le château lui-même est inscrit au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO depuis 1984.
C'est un reconnaissance bien méritée, au vu de la beauté des lieux...🤩

Before logos, cars wore jewelry. Seven hood ornaments, seven classic cars, and not a single name to help you. The red glass chief on the right is my favorite. How many can you name?
