2012 Gambling Challenge - Week 17
 

The betting windows are open for Week 17 wagering. I will add the missing lines as soon as they are available.

PLEASE read the rules here. The number one rule you need to remember is that editing your bets is not allowed and is subject to immediate disqualification.

Also, remember that you must place a wager every 3 weeks at minimum. If you go without betting for 3 consecutive weeks, you will be disqualified.

bkkcoh and morphius must bet this week or be disqualified.

How to read the lines

Sample line

Thu 9/6 New Orleans Saints +6 +223 OVER 52.5
(Date, VISITING TEAM: Point Spread, Money Line, Over/Under)
7:30 PM Indianapolis Colts -6 -243 UNDER 52.5
(Time, HOME TEAM: Point Spread, Money Line, Over/Under)

How to bet the Money Line

Sample line
SAINTS +223
COLTS -243

First off, a money bet is a straight up win/lose bet. No points involved, so of course there are odds payoffs.

If you want to bet on the Saints, you will win $223 for every $100 that you bet. Conversely, for the Colts, you will win $100 for every $243 that you bet.

In other words, the team with the - money line is the favorite (therefore lower payout) and the team with the + is the under dog.

Placing Bets

PLEASE, format your bets like this:

Colts (-6) $5000
Chiefs (+142 money) $1000
Chiefs/Texans (Under 38) $2000

This is why I'm considering changing the rules slightly next year so that once you post a bet, it cannot be changed.

I'm not singling you out BRC, it is done like this by many people and it makes my job much more difficult. I'm pretty sure that in Vegas, once you place a bet, there are no refunds.

Just something to think about.

KC/Denver under 42 $5,000
San fran/ari over 39.5 $5,000

and if I didn't loose all my money on the early games and have the money to cover these bets

san fran -16.5 $5,000
chargers over 39 $5,000
washington/Dallas over 48 $5,000

I'd be cool with that plan.

Vegas also adjusts it's lines in real time.

:evil:

Dallas +162 $5000
Vikings +159 $5000
Chiefs/Denver over 42 $5000
Seahawks/Rams over 41 $5000

Packers (-3.5) $5,000 if my Buffalo bet pays off.

Raiders +10 - $2500
Packers -3.5 - $5000

Chiefs/Broncos over 42 - All in, $2,220 I believe.

Dallas Cowboys +162 $3,000

Cowboys (+162) $5000

Dallas Cowboys +162 $5000

I think you should just cancel all my bets because they were too confusing.:rolleyes:

Skins (o48) $5000

PLEASE CANCEL ALL OF MY PREVIOUS LOSING BETS AND REPLACE THEM WITH WINNING BETS.

K thx

Cowboys/Redskins (Over 48) $1000
Redskins (-3.5) $1000
Redskins (-180) $1000

Redskins -3.5 - $5000
Redskins/Cowboys Under 48 - $5000

Sorry Dart, just the spread bet. Please cancel the over/under.

Well, I'm out.

Challenge is over after this week.

What? I thought it went to the SB?

I'm out of cash so no reason to run it now.
Posted via Mobile Device

Damn, should have kept it. Oh well, at least I won the spread.

Since you're in the lead, I'll go ahead and continue this through the SB.

****.

You started with $27,094 so the Packers/Vikings bet would have been for $7,094. I cannot accept this bet.

Not a valid bet unless all in.

Yeah, it was supposed to be 2000. I noticed it later in the day, but was too late to do anything about it. Sorry about that (and yes I understand it still is voided)
