2024 Gambling Challenge - Week 1

We've all been waiting for it, and here it is. Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season is upon us! Our favorite team and Super Bowl LVIII Champions, the Kansas City Chiefs, have a game Thursday night. I'm not posting the lines for a few days. I'll be out of town, and I'm just posting this as a place holder so I can update it later from my cell phone.

NOTE: There are 0 open spots in this year's contest. If you still want to play, I'll put you on the waiting list and if someone does not bet in the first two weeks, you can have their spot. It happens almost every year.

As a reminder, here is a brief rundown of the rules:
  • You are given $10,000 to start out and can bet up to $5,000 on any one bet. There is a $500 minimum bet unless you have less than that in which case you would be all in.
  • Payouts are at 90% unless otherwise stated. –170 would mean you have to bet $170 to win $100. +250 would mean you would get a $250 payout on every $100 bet.
  • You must bet at least once every 3 weeks or you are eliminated. If you cannot commit to participating at least this much please let us know now so somebody else can take your place.
    • You must place a wager in the first two weeks of the season, or your spot in the competition will be given to someone on the waiting list. This is ONLY for the beginning of the season. After the first three weeks, inactive spots will not be filled from the waiting list!
  • Contingency bets are allowed. If you are using contingency bets, please indicate the order of your bets.
  • There are no parlays.
  • All bets must be placed before the scheduled opening kickoff of the game.
  • I will not allow bets to be changed or cancelled once posted. Be sure that you have the correct bet made before hitting the submit button. After that, your only option is to post an offsetting bet which will cost at a minimum, 10% to the house. Anyone caught editing a bet after posting it will be immediately disqualified!

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.

Above all else, lets have some fun!

How to read the lines

Sample line


Thu 9/6 New Orleans Saints +6 +225 OVER 52.5
(Date, VISITING TEAM: Point Spread, Money Line, Over/Under)
7:30 PM Indianapolis Colts -6 -245 UNDER 52.5

(Time, HOME TEAM: Point Spread, Money Line, Over/Under)

How to bet the Money Line

Sample line
SAINTS +225
COLTS -245

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 $225 for every $100 that you bet. Conversely, for the Colts, you will win $100 for every $244 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 underdog.

Placing Bets

PLEASE
, format your bets like this:

Colts (-6) $5000
Chiefs (+142 money) $1000
Chiefs/Texans (Under 38) $2000
