PLEASE read the rules here.

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

Ok, here's how I would normally handle this. I cannot accept an all-in bet if you have more than $5,000 UNLESS you state "all-in or $5,000". You clarified the Pats bet, but after kickoff time, so that bet is not allowed. I can however accept the Chiefs bet since you changed it to $5,000 in the second post.

Worked out pretty good for you.

Yeah, I screwed it up. I'm not a n00b at this. Sorry for the extra work.
