<p>There exists Area51 proposal called <a href="http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/55086/sports-betting">Sports Betting</a>. (Admittedly, it is not very active so far and it might get deleted for inactivity. One of the reasons for writing here is making the users of this site aware of it; since there might be an overlap between people interested in this site and people interested in that proposal.)</p>

<p>When discussing <a href="https://area51.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/11541/should-sports-betting-be-merged-into-sports">whether this proposal should be merged with sports.SE site</a>; one of the followers suggested that questions about betting (or at least some of them) <a href="https://area51.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/11541/should-sports-betting-be-merged-into-sports/11713#11713">could be appropriate for this site</a>.</p>

<p>I have seen that several questions about betting have been asked here before, for some examples see <a href="https://area51.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/11541/should-sports-betting-be-merged-into-sports/11720#11720">here</a>. </p>

<p>My question is:</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>Would some of the following questions about sports betting be on-topic for this site?  Would most?</p>
</blockquote>

<p>(Judging by the questions I have found so far, I would guess that some could be, but not most, but I guess there is no harm in asking.)</p>

<hr>

<p>I'll list here example questions from the proposal (to get an idea about the kind of the questions which might be asked there - but keep in mind that Sports Betting proposal is still in definition phase):</p>

<ol>
<li>What are the pros and cons of level stakes betting?</li>
<li>Under what assumptions is Kelly staking 'optimal'?</li>
<li>What are some good bookmaker comparison sites?</li>
<li>Why do odds offered by the bookmakers tend to change rapidly during the last few minutes before the start of the game?</li>
<li>How do odds comparison sites get the data with the odds for the events at various bookmakers?</li>
<li>Why some bookmakers do not offer multiple bets (accumulator bets)?</li>
<li>How is potential profit from an arbitrage bet (a.k.a. surebet) calculated?</li>
</ol>

<p>P.S.</p>

<p>I have posted several comments on betting-related questions asked on this site about this proposal. I hope it is ok. (It was mentioned in <a href="https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/134805/what-are-acceptable-ways-of-promoting-your-area-51-proposal">this meta.SO questions</a> as one of the possibilities how to make potentially interested users aware of a site proposal.)</p>
