If you are getting paid 20-1 on a 4-1 occurance you should take it no matter what provided you are not crippling your bankroll. There comes a point where all of these become +EV at one point. My theory or hint is, people aren't taking these nearly as often as they should.

QFMFT.
Similar to the equity options market where over the long-term, buying far out-of-the-money calls is +EV, but people hate the thought of losing 9 times to win big on the tenth.
