2016 Gambling Challenge - Week 16
 

The betting windows are open for Week 16 wagering! I'm posting all the games now since I won't be able to later this week.

The following people have not bet in last two weeks and must place a bet this week or they are disqualified.

Halfcan

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 +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

Woot!
There was some real shitty kicking today.

Yeah, that's a shame.

Don't get all teary eyed on me, now. Lol

IT was a dumb attempt to try and gain ground on SNR. I knew better on half of them, but I was trying to go against him to catch up. Welp....

We tried to take each other down and ended up leaving the door wide open for cosmo.

I believe he's now in the lead by like $10,000

LMAO, perfect

A quick calculation...unless I missed something, I think you're still up by maybe 5K.

And I mean really, the ****ing Redskins and Bears score a combined 60+ points?

That's when you know it just ain't your day.

Bad strategy...you weren't THAT far behind. That's a panicky Matt Cassel-type move (he threw a pick-6 today!)
Calm, cool and steady like me, Tom Brady or Alex Smith will take this race.

Did you count the 9K I lost on the Giants?

Denver (+160 money) $1000

I called in a $10 5 team parlay yesterday(pays 20 to 1) for shits and grins took the over on the Saints,Packers,Raiders and Bears and left one slot open for today.Hit the first four now trying to decide what to fill that 5th slot with. :hmmm:

Be nice to hit as in all my years of gambling it'd be my first NFL 5 teamer.

I missed your losing Titans bet. That would put us at just about even.

Steelers (-4½) $4000

Steelers ( -4 1/2) $5000

Lions (+7) $5000

Lions/Cowboys (over 43.5) $5000

You feel my pain

The Chargers line was -6 so that bet was not accepted.

My pleasure, thanks.

Guys...quick question. As bettors...how much worth would you put in a ranking system that was 70-75% accurate every week in terms of predicting straight-up winners?
