Watto's bet is kinda dumb.

Was rewatching Phantom Menace and was just thinking... Watto's betting heavily on Sebulba, which I understand, the guy always wins... even if he cheats, but not like the Hutts truly care on referees, this isn't the FIA and Formula One! XD

But anyways, I did kinda think about that... what exactly was Sebulba's odds? I can't imagine you'd win so much there since A) he's the favorite and B) plenty of other folks would be betting on him. I'm thinking Triple Crown horseracing odds like Sebulba's got a 1/5 odds meaning the buy in is stiff and the payout isn't as much as say the 100/1 Anakin winning. (Man, wonder if anyone picked him, that would've funny to see.)

And look, obviously there are reasons why the bet happens and all, Anakin's freedom but his mother's continual enslavement because George is handcuffed to the OT. Man, good fanfic material to think about if Qui-Gon convinced Watto to bet on Anakin. The Toydarian would be swiming in cash like Scrooge McDuck and probably could've gotten both Anakin and Shmi freed.
