Me too, surprisingly. Hit on all three games tonight.

 

[yeahitsrust]

Or even Kansas +1 instead of St Louis +19

There is a very very verrry minimal chance of St Louis losing by more than 19 with their style of play. Hell I'm on them for a sizeable amount at +9 and on the ML

Much more likely Kansas loses SU rather than wins by 20

Quell knows. I rolled with that StL bet.

 

[DeadsetAce]

what are people thinking for tomorrow?

thinking about lions and skins to cover

Lions
Cowboys
Patriots

Nothing submitted though.

 

[DeadsetAce]

hernandez appears to be a go for tomorrow...FWIW

 

[nothingtol0se]

to bad we can't hear colin's input for tomorrow's games

 

[lexlieno]

Guise follow me, I will not fail you.

HOU-3(34-14)

DAL-3(24-20)

NE-3(28-13)

DEN-7(35-14)

Thats an easy 4 game parlay.

 

[do work son]

Except for that my site has new england at - 6.5 and Denver at - 9.5

Damn broski.....I'd still take it tho.  NYJ has 0 offense.  Its up to Tommy to and that D to cover.  As long as Tommy puts up points they're set.  Denver at 9.5 isn't that bad.  I'd still take it.  Manning is on FIRE and the broncos pass rush will destroy Quinn.

to bad we can't hear colin's input for tomorrow's games

He stated this morning that he doesn't like any games for Thanksgiving. Now that doesn't necessarily mean these are games to avoid just games that probably won't make it onto the Blazing Five.

Key Notes:
-Romo is 8-1 in November and he's going up against a suspect ******** pass defense.
-Texans are too good of a team, expect them to bounce back and cover.
-Same goes for the Pats, with or without Gronk they have one of the best offenses in the league. First in yards so expect them to cover as well. Not to mention the return of Hernandez.
-Record for Thanksgiving Day favorites the past 16 games.....14-2


I might just blindly bet favorites tomorrow just to keep things exciting.

Question?


im new to this how betting thing.


whats a good website.


im interesting in bettling the parlay and so forth


a parlay is when you pick a group of teams to win a game correct? and when 1 loses you lose the whole bet?

Sportsbook.ag is where I go. Been nothing but great for me.

And yes, that's a parlay. Wouldn't neccessarily recommend it for a newbie, but if you got to the site I mentioned you can do a progressive parlay where even if one of your teams lose (minimum 4 teams) you can still get paid.

thanks, looking around so far at the parlays.


question can i place conflicting bets?


EX


picking the Raiders and Seahawks to win for $10 i can potentially win $60

but picking the Bungals and Seahawks to win for $10 i can win 10


could i place both bets? just to break even

 

[651akathepaul]

You sure can. A lot of bettors leverage bets by doing something kind of similar, but moreso with individual bets.

Just withdrew money from sportsbook for the first time this week, how long does it usually take for them to send the check out? A live agent told me 6-8 weeks, if thats true, thats the last time I'm using them

Most likely. I do MoneyGram though. My cash is available to be picked up two days after I submit my withdrawal. Been nothing but impressed with that process.

Question.


Looking at the site you suggested


It has

Houston -3.5
Detroit + 3.5


what does that mean exactly? that always confused me.

Question.

what does that mean exactly? that always confused me.

It means if you select Houston, they have to win by 4 points in order for you to claim your money.

If you went with Detroit, they could lose by 3 and you'd still get paid out because you were given 3.5 points to begin with and you still end up winning by .5.

Final score:

Houston 34
Lions 31

Final score with spread (if you choose Detroit):

Houston 34
Lions 34.5

Final score with spread (if you choose Houston):

Houston 30.5
Detroit 31

 

[651akathepaul]

That number (the spread) is what Vegas or bookies use to level the playing field. If it were as simple as just picking the winner then we'd all be millionaires by now. The spread gives underdogs free points and takes points away from the favorite. It's your job to figure out if they're giving too much or taking too much away.

gotcha.


basically i can either pick teams to win straight up.

or pick them via the spread.


via the spread i would win more money obviously because your playing the points game.

teams straight up is easier/safer but lower payout since im just starting out.
