Reading it a bit more carefully, I guess for one-sided bets there’s a chance that you are already in the position that the bet is not profitable so you already don’t need to update. I guess the title threw me off a bit—with two sided bets you have to do one or the other (or both), with one sided you don’t.
“Bet or update” assumes the possibility of taking either side of the bet. In this case I would happily take the other side of the offered bet.
It doesn’t. I wrote the “bet or update” post, so I’d know =)
Ha, so you did!
