2017 Gambling Challenge - Week 1
We've all been waiting for it, and here it is. Week 1 of the 2017 NFL season is upon us! We have a game Thursday night, so I'll post the odds for that one now. The rest I will post in a couple of days.
As a reminder, here is a brief rundown of the rules:
NEW PLAYERS!! The complete rules list is in this thread. Please read them, or I will make fun of you for asking questions about the rules found in the link. http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=168100 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 This year's field ArrowheadHawk ArrowheadMagic Banyon bevischief BigRedChief Big Smoke bkkcoh Bowser Bwana carlos3652 ClevelandBronco cosmo20002 crazycoffey DaKCMan AP Dartgod Dave Lane Discuss Thrower Earthling East Side Rogelio emaw82 FD HemiEd Hoover Iowanian JASONSAUTO Jerok Jewish Rabbi KCCHIEFS27 kccrow KCFalcon59 KChiefs1 Kcwolf KS Smitty kstater mnchiefsguy MOHillbilly morphius Mr. Flopnuts mr. tegu New World Order Nzoner OmahaChief OnTheWarpath58 Otter Pestilence PHOG Rausch raybec RealSNR Renegade Scorp shitgoose Slammer Spchief Stinger Stumppy Sully theelusiveeightrop TimBone UTChief Week 1 NFL Lines Thu 9/7 Kansas City Chiefs +9 +400 Over 48.5 7:30 PM New England Patriots -9 -475 Under 48.5 Sun 9/10 New York Jets +8 +315 Over 40.0 12:00 PM Buffalo Bills -8 -385 Under 40.0 Sun 9/10 Atlanta Falcons -6.5 -255 Over 48.5 12:00 PM Chicago Bears +6.5 +215 Under 48.5 Sun 9/10 Jacksonville Jaguars +5.5 +185 Over 39.5 12:00 PM Houston Texans -5.5 -225 Under 39.5 Sun 9/10 Philadelphia Eagles -1 -110 Over 48.5 12:00 PM Washington Redskins +1 +100 Under 48.5 Sun 9/10 Arizona Cardinals -2 -130 Over 48.0 12:00 PM Detroit Lions +2 +110 Under 48.0 Sun 9/10 Oakland Raiders +2.5 +140 Over 50.5 12:00 PM Tennessee Titans -2.5 -160 Under 50.5 Sun 9/10 Baltimore Ravens +3 +130 Over 42.0 12:00 PM Cincinnati Bengals -3 -150 Under 42.0 Sun 9/10 Pittsburgh Steelers -9 -430 Over 47.0 12:00 PM Cleveland Browns +9 +340 Under 47.0 Sun 9/10 Indianapolis Colts +4.5 +175 Over 41.5 3:05 PM Los Angeles Rams -4.5 -210 Under 41.5 Sun 9/10 Seattle Seahawks +3 +140 Over 51.0 3:25 PM Green Bay Packers -3 -160 Under 51.0 Sun 9/10 Carolina Panthers -4.5 -200 Over 47.5 3:25 PM San Francisco 49ers +4.5 +170 Under 47.5 Sun 9/10 New York Giants +4 +170 Over 47.5 7:30 PM Dallas Cowboys -4 -200 Under 47.5 Mon 9/11 New Orleans Saints +3.5 +145 Over 48.0 6:10 PM Minnesota Vikings -3.5 -165 Under 48.0 Mon 9/11 Los Angeles Chargers +3.5 +150 Over 43.0 9:20 PM Denver Broncos -3.5 -170 Under 43.0 GOOD LUCK!

Can you explain that bet,sorry I've been to Vegas numerous times and understand the plus 9 and I get the 38 to 1 but I've never seen odds like that on a spread.I'm asking because on my next trip I'd like to find something like that,thanks.

Thanks for letting me play this year, Dart! Lol! I think this cinches my spot in the record book - not only did I not get through the first weekend, I didn't get through the first GAME! Remember kids...do as I say, not as I do!

All books pretty much have "juice" on the spread that looks like a moneyline bet in parenthesis after the spread, such as -8 (-110). This tells you how much you have to wager to win $100. So, to win $100 on the spread you have to bet $110. This is exactly what dart does here. The house always takes 10%. But as far as odds with a spread? Never have I seen it. He's not even arbing in this case. I mean, there wouldn't be straight odds associated with that. I have no idea. Hope he explains. |

I'm a dumbass. That's not what happened. Bet points and the money line.
