Bets You Can Win 90% of the Time
 

Have you ever won a bet that you made money on? What is it about men when they get a little alcohol in their bloodstream they suddenly know everything? Well here are a couple of challenges that if done properly will expose the welchers out there. So if you bet for money, make sure you see theirs before the bet. Usually, a group of witnesses will always stop someone from welching because of pride.

Bet #1- I cant tell you how many times I won this bet. The tonality and way you say your proposal will make it or break it.
You state: I bet I can determine the score of any sporting even before it even starts and be 100% accurate every time.
Most guys will say what? You repeat parts of the sentence but not the whole sentence. The reason for this is they heard you the first time, unless there is noise in the background- they heard you.
You again state with a confident demeanor: any event (give your own examples- football, baseball, etc) 100% accurate EVERY TIME.
At this point you will get questions like “oh yeah why aren’t you a millionaire?” or “bullshit”, generally they won’t believe you. That’s when you take out however much you want to bet, and tell them in whatever manner you want to bet you.
Once their money is on the line, state zero to zero and quickly take your winnings.

Bet #2- This is an oldie, but I have been surprised to learn that not as many people have heard this one as I thought. This works best with a bunch of drunk guys trying to impress the ladies with their testosterone levels. First you steer the conversation to talking about how much you can lift and feats of strength you have done (real or not).
After which you state: I can knock down that wall.
Here’s where your acting needs to come into play. Some may have heard this one most of you have probably heard it, but you would be surprised how many haven’t. After the bet is laid you go knock (as in knocking on a door) in a downward direction on the wall.

Does anyone else know any bets like these? Please share.

Your Knocking down the wall is pretty hilarious.

I don't know - I would think this would tend to get one's ass kicked. Alcohol + $$$ + smartass trick bets. The people I know who really bet on things aren't the types I would expect to find humor in a parlor trick.

I'll bet you McCain votes with Bush on this one.

I have to go with my porcine brother on this one; where I grew up, this seems more like a sure-fired way of getting your ass kicked than anything else, especially since these are supposed to be pulled on drunks. If you're going to pull this off, I'd suggest a clear path to the door, at least one step head-start and a 400M speed under 50 seconds.

Yeah at least on the first one. I know I wanted to kick the guys ass I lost the $20 to. Really I was more pissed at myself for falling for it. The ones that dont find humor in it probably wouldnt fall for it anyway, right?

these are silly things from grade school. I would go for any of them and I shure wouldn't give up a dime for them either.
