Arbitrage is what every investor or gambler dream about, in layman’s terms it means no matter the result of the game you can’t lose.
Richmond supporters have for the last 10 weeks been able to achieve emotional arbitrage by betting on the team playing Carlton. Carlton wins, we get the number 1 pick so Tigers supporters are happy, the other team wins, the you win the bet, so either way you can’t lose.
Such is my confidence in the Carlton’s ability to manufacture defeat I have been betting by far the largest sums of my life on single games no matter how long the odds. The fix is in, the question is do we get upset by it or do we profit from it?
Dealing with the sheer arrogance and ludicrousness of head of the AFL trying to convince you that teams aren't tanking and the priority pick systems isn't eating the soul of the game is much easier when you are profiting from it. But I would still rather have the No.1 pick than the cash.
