One person, one address: admin@oddsthelaw.com. No form, no ticketing system, no autoresponder.

Odds The Law is a personal project rather than a company — 7 games, 45 tools, and 26 precomputed datasets behind them, built and maintained by one person. That means replies come when they come, usually within a few days, and always from a human.

Corrections come first

If you think a figure on this site is wrong, that is the email worth sending, and it will get answered ahead of everything else. The whole premise here is that the numbers are checked rather than asserted — so a number that is wrong is a bug, not a difference of opinion, and it gets fixed and noted.

It helps enormously if you can say which page, which figure, and what you expected instead. If you have a source that disagrees, send that too: several figures here are anchored to published results precisely so there is something to argue against, and every one of those anchors is listed on the data page.

Report a wrong number

Questions about the maths

How a given number was computed, what a model assumes, why two figures that look like they should match do not — all fair game. The methodology page covers the general shape of each engine and where it simplifies, and the data page lists every dataset with the external reference it was checked against. If the answer is not in either, ask.

Ask about a calculation

Suggestions, and games that aren’t here yet

A game belongs on this site if it has arguments in it that a number can settle, and if those numbers can be worked out exactly rather than guessed at. If you have one in mind, say which argument you want settled — that is the part that decides whether it is worth building, far more than the game itself.

Using the figures elsewhere

The datasets are published for verification rather than reuse — the licence is all rights reserved and no redistribution grant is given. If you want to cite a figure, quote it with a link and that is fine by me. If you want to build on a dataset, ask first; the answer is usually yes for anything non-commercial, and it costs you one email to find out.

Privacy and data

What the site collects, and how to decline it, is set out in the privacy policy. Requests about your own data go to the same address, marked so they are easy to spot.

One thing this address is not: gambling advice. The casino games here are covered because the maths is interesting and the folklore around them is mostly wrong, and knowing a house edge exactly is not the same as beating it. See the about page for where that line sits.
