Reply to comment by Eriklano in Were there too many sensations in the group-stage games at the FIFA World Cup in Qatar? What if I bet the same amount against the odds in all the group-stage games? WOW – I would have finished the experiment with a net profit of almost 48 coins! [OC] by ikashnitsky

In betting we call it the underdog. Or dog for short

I mean the underdog is who wins to make it an upset. They are two different things.

No. He's betting on the one with worse odds to win. That's the underdog

That is what I said, you didn’t understand me. I said, with other words: when there’s an upset it means that an underdog has won. So an upset and an underdog isn’t the same word. Your original comment, while it is interesting to add the word underdog into the mix, isn’t too relevant because underdog is not equal to an upset. An underdog can exist, and lose. That’s obviously what happens most of the time. Then there isn’t an upset.

He bet on the underdog every single time. And the payout on those odds eclipsed the fact that he lost more bets then her won. Your are so dense

Dude. What are you even arguing? The title is “were there too many sensations in Qatar”. As a comment on that, I wrote that sensation is probably wrong and upset instead is the right word. Then you answer me with “we call it underdog” and continue to argue me about it. Do you want it to say “were there too many underdogs in Qatar”? Because that doesn’t make sense. So what I have been telling you is: UNDERDOG and UPSET are two DIFFERENT THINGS! Sensations and upsets are synonyms (but upset is the better word) sensations and underdogs are NOT. That’s all I’m saying. What have you been saying?
