Default never bet on sports

I was checking the odds on the world cup of ruggby matches and realized it was easy to make money.
So I bet 20k on australia vs japan.
At the half time australia wins by 23 to 3. I come and check and realize I bet with Australia having a -60.5 points handicap.

So I take a while and realize they are not going to make it and bet on the japan to win to counterfeit my first bet, the odds are bad and I bet alot.

after 10 minutes in 2nd half Australia is winning by 44 to 3.

beat: im going to lose alot
brag: i can offer to lose alot
variance: if I didnt realized there was an handicap on the match, I might have won.
