2014 Gambling Challenge - Super Bowl
The betting windows are open for Super Bowl wagering!
I am going to allow bets to be submitted via PM, but it is not a requirement. Regarding Super Bowl Wagering: As in previous years, I have added some prop bets for the Super Bowl to make things a little more interesting. These will be; 1st Half spread, 1st Half Money Line, 1st Half Over/Under, First Team to Score and Last Team to Score. The 1st Half Spread and Over/Under will be bet like normal bets, the 1st Half Money Line and First/Last Team to Score will be bet like a money line bet. As all other bets go, the Min/Max on these is $500/$5,000 (unless you are all-in) Any bets entered with the wrong line or wrong teams, or posted after the scheduled kickoff time (5:30 PM CST) will be void! PLEASE read the rules here. The number one rule you need to remember is that editing your bets is not allowed and is subject to immediate disqualification. Remember that you must place a wager every 3 weeks at minimum. If you go without betting for 3 consecutive weeks, you will be disqualified. The following people must bet this week or be disqualified for violating this rule. Nobody 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 Current Standings Otter $34,538 Old Dog $20,443 raybec $15,704 Slammer $15,123 KCFalcon59 $13,905 bevischief $12,240 Banyon $9,650 morphius $4,550 Pestilence $3,800 BigRedChief $925 bkkcoh $498 58-4ever $0 ArrowheadHawk $0 ArrowheadMagic $0 BIG_DADDY $0 blaise $0 Bowser $0 Buck $0 Bwana $0 carlos3652 $0 cosmo20002 $0 crazycoffey $0 DaKCMan AP $0 Dartgod $0 Dave Lane $0 DeezNutz $0 Discuss Thrower $0 Earthling $0 East Side Rogelio $0 Ebolapox $0 FD $0 HemiEd $0 Hootie 2.0 $0 Hoover $0 Iowanian $0 JASONSAUTO $0 Jewish Rabbi $0 KC Dan $0 Kcwolf $0 keg in kc $0 kstater $0 L.A.

That's a little different than normal, so just wanted to point that out. Sun 2/1 Seattle Seahawks +1 -105 Over 47.5 5:30 PM New England Patriots -1 -115 Under 47.5 PROP BETS 1st Half Lines Seattle Seahawks +0.5 -100 Over 24 New England Patriots -0.5 -110 Under 24 1st Team to Score Seattle Seahawks -110 New England Patriots -120 Last Team to Score Seattle Seahawks -115 New England Patriots -115 GOOD LUCK!

I'm guessing that staying put and hoping Otter loses $20K isn't likely to be the best strategy.....What to do? What to do?

Is that supposed to be +105 for the Seahawks or are both numbers for both teams negative?
EDIT: Nevermind. Looks like they're all negative. |

Yeah, it's weird. I checked a bunch of sports books and they are all like that.

Can you make contingency bets from the first half to the second?

There are no second half lines, so no.

Congrats Otter. With that late first half TD by Seattle you have it sewn up.
THANK YOU Dartgod for doing this again. I look forward to losing again next year. |
