In recent years, as economic activities become global and the intensity of competition increases, recreation for resting nerves that have been tired from competition has become important.
[0003]
Among various recreational activities, gambling such as horse racing, bicycle racing, and boat racing attracts many enthusiasts as a hobby and profit, and is actively performed.
[0004]
In the following explanation, the case of horse racing will be described as an example, but these bettings are the first and second horses that compete in one competition (hereinafter referred to as “race”). Expect a combination (hereinafter referred to as “Investment Target”), purchase a voting ticket that describes the investment target, enjoy the race itself, and if the prediction is correct, the amount recorded on the voting ticket after the race ends It is possible to receive a dividend according to the determined dividend rate.
[0005]
The organizer deducts expenses from the sales of voting tickets and distributes the balance to the purchasers of voting tickets as dividends, so there are many buyers of voting tickets for the same investment target, and much of the sales are the same investment When the target occupies, the dividend rate is low even if the investment target is right, and when there are few purchasers of voting tickets for the same investment target, the dividend rate becomes high when the target is high.
[0006]
The sales amount of voting tickets and the sales status of voting tickets for each investment target change every moment from the start of sales until the sales deadline. The dividend rate is displayed at the venue, and when the sales amount and sales status of the voting ticket are determined by the sales deadline, the dividend rate at that time is set as the fixed dividend rate.
[0007]
Therefore, in order to obtain a dividend that does not fall below the total investment amount, a method of investing by combining a plurality of investment targets while looking at the dividend rate can be considered.
[0008]
