2009 Gambling Challenge - Playoffs (Conference Championships)
 

My apologies for getting this up so late. As many of you know, we had a death in the family this past week.

The betting windows are open for Conference Championship Round wagering.

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






Notes

• Please pay attention to the starting dates/times!
• Remember that you must bet at least once every 3 weeks or you will be disqualified.
  • KCFalcon59, OnTheWarpath58, Otter must bet this week.

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

Hey Dart, I think you got my total wrong. I'm pretty sure after my shitty betting strategy last week I should have a lot less. ...........Just noticed my total this week is the same amount as I started with last week.
If you don't have time to mess with it it's no big deal
I'll figure out how much I should have and go from there.



PS Sorry about your loss man.
