I understand why you would not want athletes to throw games on purpose if they place a large bet for the opposing team to win, however let’s say I am a pitcher in baseball, and I place a bet for my own team to win, wouldn’t that only motivate me to play better because I stand to win more money by doing so?

Would you be interested in a bet that sounded like this?
“I’ll bet you $100 that the next word out of my mouth after this sentence is Spaghetti…”
Would you take that bet, or let anyone else take that bet, knowing that I can just say the word Spaghetti and get the money?
