2013 Gambling Challenge - Wild Card Weekend
The playoffs are here! The playoffs are here!
The betting windows are open for Wildcard Weekend wagering. Eliminated last week: KCFalcon59 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. 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. The following people must bet this week or be disqualified for violating this rule. Nobody 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 Current Standings HemiEd $40,408 bevischief $30,636 BigRedChief $22,278 ChiefsandO'sfan $20,600 JASONSAUTO $12,180 Old Dog $11,741 Slammer $10,291 mnchiefsguy $9,231 cdcox $9,060 Dave Lane $5,700 bkkcoh $3,625 ArrowheadHawk $0 ArrowheadMagic $0 BIG_DADDY $0 Bill Lundberg $0 blaise $0 Bowser $0 Buck $0 Bwana $0 carlos3652 $0 crazycoffey $0 DaKCMan AP $0 Dartgod $0 DeezNutz $0 Ebolapox (H5N1) $0 FD $0 Hoover $0 Iowanian $0 Jewish Rabbi $0 jspchief $0 KC Dan $0 KCFalcon59 $0 Kcwolf $0 keg in kc $0 kstater $0 Lil Momma $0 MOhillbilly $0 morphius $0 Mr. Flopnuts $0 mr. tegu $0 Nzoner $0 OnTheWarpath58 $0 patteeu $0 Pestilence $0 Rausch $0 raybec $0 RedDread $0 Scorp $0 Sfeihc $0 shitgoose $0 SNR $0 Spchief $0 Stinger $0 Sully $0 Talking Can $0 theelusiveeightrop $0 UTChief $0 Wildcard Weekend NFL Lines Sat 1/4 Kansas City Chiefs +2.5 +116 Over 46.5 3:35 PM Indianapolis Colts -2.5 -128 Under 46.5 Sat 1/4 New Orleans Saints +2.5 +115 Over 53.5 7:00 PM Philadelphia Eagles -2.5 -127 Under 53.5 Sun 1/5 San Diego Chargers +7 +252 Over 47 12:00 PM Cincinnati Bengals -7 -285 Under 47 Sun 1/5 San Francisco 49ers -2.5 -137 Over 47.5 3:30 PM Green Bay Packers +2.5 +124 Under 47.5 GOOD LUCK!

Awesome! It hadn't kicked off yet but I am thrilled, thanks.
I was going to contact you and try and figure out how I came up with an extra 5k, and that is it. I like the PM idea of the SB bets, sounds like fun. |

It will force people to bet with their hearts/heads instead of waiting to see what the guy close to them in the standings did and then bet the same or opposite.
I'd do it for the entire season but it would be too hard to manage.

Yeah, that would be tougher than it already is to manage.

Waiting to see what the other guy bets and betting the opposite is a strategy to win if you have to make up ground quickly.

Yeah, good strategy, I guess, but I'd rather the person that can pick the winners the best win the contest..

Example, I went with the 9ers very early Sunday, but upon review, I think I was the only one that did. But, if you think I am doing that, I will be glad to pull out now, no big deal. You can go back through the entire season and I have done my own thing, betting small early until I built my stash. |

Factually, you cannot have been doing that or your lead wouldn't be increasing. On second thought....kick him out!!! Then I have a tiny chance of pulling off a miracle comeback. j/k obviously |

You are the man on this. Whatever you think. It's not like its real money.
