Probability in Sports Betting

Understanding probability is crucial for evaluating bets and building models.

Basic Probability Rules

  • Probability ranges from 0 to 1
  • P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)
  • P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B) for independent events

Conditional Probability

P(A|B) = probability of A given B has occurred. Critical for in-game betting.

Bayes Theorem

Update probabilities as new information arrives. Essential for live betting.
