A friend of mine is 33 years old - average fitness level - hasn't played racketball in at least 10 years and, when he did, he never played it more than 1 or 2 times a year.
He works with a man who just turned 50. He plays racketball 3 times per week for the last 22 years.
They have made a wager -- they will play a 15-point game. In order for my friend to win the bet, he must score at least 5 points in the game.
Personally - with this sort of experience level - I don't see how my friend is going to score ANY points let alone 5. I'm thinking I should definitely put some money on this & bet against my friend.
Your thoughts?

Bet against your friend.
Racketball is very confined and most people who are experienced know how to use the court. That is the older guy wont have to run too much. Plus the older guy is in racketball shape. If your friend isnt used to any exercise that requires quick bursts of energy, consider him done.
Im assuming the younger guy is not going to practice before the big game too
Good luck.

I'M 60.
I'D GIVE YOUR FRIEND THE SERVE AND BE WILLING TO SAY HE'D NOT GET TO SERVE A SECOND TIME.
15 PT GAMES IS SKUNK AT 9-0
21 PT GAMES IS SKUNK AT 11-0
SO IN 15 PT GAME HE GETS SKUNKED 9-0
OR AT 15-1 FULL GAME AT HIS BEST.
HIS CHANCES== SLIM OR NONE.
