Does anyone here bet on cricket?

[BrianJames]

Just wondering how many people in the states really bet on this stuff?

 

[cincy_]

is that a prop wager?

I know of teasers and parlays and reverses but have no idea what a cricket is - is it like a run-line?

PS: I am kidding

 

[lander]

Nope. But since we're on exotic sports - what is "snooker"? Pinnacle has dime line snooker, but I have no idea what it even is.

Thanks.

 

[TheGeneral+]

Nobody i know has ever even mentioned it.

 

[BrianJames]

Thanks guy's ! and Lander the only snooker I know of is a form of pool.

You would recognize snooker as being related to pool as it is played on a similar table with a cue ball and cues.

There are 15 red balls set as a triangle and a yellow, green, brown blue, pink and black ball positioned on various spots around the table. The object is to sink a red then a colour then a red then a colour with the colours being replaced. Once all the reds are sunk the colours are sunk in order and not replaced.

The game is scored by giving points to the balls thereby allowing betting.

Only on how far or high they can jump.

I bet on cricket and I know several people that do also. You need to focus on the Asian, European and Austalian market.

Cricket is the most popular sport in India with over a billion people. If you find a niche there you could make big bucks.

In Pakistan too it's big, so Sick maybe able to help you out there.

 

[PatrickMcIrish]

Nope, never bet on it.

 

[truthteller]

I make money on Cricket, NBA and NFL in that order.

 

[lander]

Thanks for the info Woody.

 

[Chadster]

just the indians

I hated that sport. So boring. Then I started betting on it. Now I hate it even more.

YOU TALKING ABOUT THE LITTLE BUGS THAT MAKE ALL THAT RACKET AND KEEP ME UP AT NIGHT??

 

[valueman]

For those of of you heathens who don't understand the complexities and intricacies of cricket - the analogies are many - cricket is to baseball as snooker is to pool and poker is to snap - more advanced and for a more discerning audience.

 

[exilarch]

It's not cricket to bet on cricket.
