I heard a different story. I hear he knew a mathematician he despised but Nobel wasn't stupid and he knew that guy has a decent shot at winning the prize in mathematics if he were to establish one. So just out of spite he decided against it.

Then again this doesn't exclude the sotry about cheating wife. Could've been the same guy I guess. Either way Nobel was a pretty cool dude.
