2011 Gambling Challenge - Super Bowl - Page 3

**Dartgod** · 05:10 PM

The betting windows are open for Super Bowl wagering!

Regarding Super Bowl Wagering: As in previous years, I have added some prop bets for the Super Bowl to make things a little more interesting. These will be; 1st Half spread, 1st Half Money Line, 1st Half Over/Under, First Team to Score and Last Team to Score.

The 1st Half Spread and Over/Under will be bet like normal bets, the 1st Half Money Line and First/Last Team to Score will be bet like a money line bet. As all other bets go, the Min/Max on these is $500/$5,000 (unless you are all-in)

Any bets entered with the wrong line or wrong teams will be void!

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.

Above all else, lets have some fun!

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

Congrats to Big Daddy. This is his second time winning this contest and the first winner ever to crack $100,000. spchief's 2nd place total ($78,744) would have won this contest any other year.

BD, I'll get you signature trophy ready in a day or two.

SPchief · 02-05-2012, 09:57 PM

Congrats Big_Daddy! It was fun this year. Looking forward to next year. As always, thanks Dartgod for doing this!

Sfeihc · 02-05-2012, 09:58 PM

Thanks Dartgod for organizing this little shindig. Congrats to Big Daddy, I tried to roll the dice twice to pull off the miracle comeback to no avail it was more like EPIC FAIL.

MOhillbilly · 02-05-2012, 10:21 PM

**OnTheWarpath15** · 02-05-2012, 10:27 PM

Congrats, Troy.

**Bowser** · 02-06-2012, 12:45 AM

I was out so long ago, it feels like I haven't played since the 2010 season.

Well done on 100K, BD. We need to meet up in Vegas sometime.

BIG_DADDY · 02-06-2012, 12:51 AM

Thanks guys, I appreciate it. The competition was extremely stiff this time around. It seems like every year it gets harder to win this thing. With that in mind I think there should be a gambling thread Vegas trip in our future, that would be a lot of fun. Thanks again Bob for running this thread, you really do an awesome job and it certainly makes the season much more enjoyable. Great game, great season. I look forward to giving a try again next year.

kstater · 02-06-2012, 05:53 AM

Congrats BD, thanks Dartgod

ArrowheadMagic · 02-06-2012, 08:13 AM
