Pascal’s Wager seems trivially countered by pointing out that there’s an equal amount of evidence of the opposite hypothesis.
Or, in a more refined way: There is an effectively infinite number of theories that have equal evidence (namely: none), and consequently you should give each one only (1/infinity) attention, i.e. epsilon, i.e. basically zero.
