A: PROPOS?
PROPO big-big is the better game.
But it depends on how they designed it and on what terms.
From the classic period of gambling, the PROPO of Italy was the best:
13 matches, won 13 and 12 and shared 50% of the proceeds in a ratio of 50-50.
Elliniko is not allowed to go (see and we bet OPAP!) And no one is playing it now. The columns that PROPO makes now, in the good season, he could have made in Dallas this summer, with Rappan. In such periods, the agents said "I close it and go to Mykonos and let OPAP come here to get my permission" ...
Elliniko shares 40% and at the beginning of 2009, there was a move to improve it.
Perhaps superficially judging, agents and players approached OPAP and told him the following:
"To return to 13ari. Also, because now 40% is dead and on the other hand, you are sharing 65% -70% in the bet anyway, so you have to share PROPO as well."
So the (new) PROPO would become a pretty good gambling proposal.
The people of OPAP, however, are very cunning and after thinking about it for a while, they said "pretty". It was judged that it would be competitive with "let's bet", our national thief-toy.
In other countries, I do not know exactly what PROPO is circulating, since the companies that distribute it are basically the local national monopolies and do not publish much on the internet.
.....
I have time to hold it in my hands. Long time no see. Many rules in football have changed now, which makes me wonder if today's football is exactly the same as the football of PROPO's time.
But there are some useful statistical mechanisms in PROPO that do not exist in the bet.
