Ball Game

Let's play a game with 100 balls. 50 of them are white, 50 of them are black. You have two sacks, and you can arrange the balls within the two sacks in any way you want. I pick a ball from one of the two sacks. If I pick a black ball, I win. If I pick a white ball, you win. How do you arrange the balls to maximise your probability of winning?
