Wagering 101


Side action example

Baltimore + 175 /New York -200

Wager on New York , would be -200 units to win 100 units

on Baltimore, would be 100 units to win 175 units...

Total 9 -110

Win the total play and you are +100

Lose the total play and you are -110

Simple as that

LMAO

But remember if he loses it's a chase play. By the way how did I get matched up with this sharp baseswiz and funk get the bye. I thought I was getting the bye because I was matched up with Dogball last tourney.

 

[FunkSoulBrother]

Heh, you know.. in this instance I'll take 30,000 on MFG myself too...

[RPM]

if someone can get a book to offer raiders odds, i have a couple bets i would like to make.

 

[raiders72001]

Who would you take?

 

[raiders72001]

Maybe Gamblers Avenue can put up some odds. Some book put up odds for the Shrink/Irish contest.

 

[raiders72001]

Freddog- How about some odds for this contest?

 

[SurfRat]

Raiders,

You never posted the odds of me winning it all! Whazup?

 

[RPM]

at those odds i would throw out dog, funk, players, scoob, and dok. then i would bet the rest.

general would probably be my biggest bet.

 

[raiders72001]

Sorry Surfrat-: 15-1

 

[raiders72001]

General has the toughest schedule according to the RPI

 

[SurfRat]

No prob Raiders, I was just busting. You better make me at least 100-1 because I suck at bases.

 

[RPM]

i say if general gets past scoob, he takes the east


the west is somewhat of a toss up.

 

[raiders72001]

With only 10 plays per round anyone can win this. I even have a shot.

 

[raiders72001]

I see Dogball out West
