Can someone tell me why this betting strategy won't work? (making 400 extra dollars a week)

   Let's say I have 2000 dollars.
   
   I find a team that has the odds 1.04 for one team, and 10.00 for the other. Obviously the 1.04 one will win. Inb4 "there's a chance it won't though and you'll lose everything!" but come on, seriously? How the fuck can it lose?
   
   So I bet 2000 on that, and make 60 dollars.
   
   I make one bet like that every day of the week, and end up with 400 altogether.
   
   CAN THIS FAIL?
