MLB Detroit -1.40

I put some on Nevada

Talking Poker · #3 09-22-06, 07:47 PM

We have action.

It time for you to go 2-0 for me.

Edit: The Nevada game is tomorrow, right?

Penguinfan · #4 09-22-06, 07:55 PM

No, tonight, ESPN2

Talking Poker · #5 09-22-06, 07:59 PM

Right you are. I swear to you that game was listed under Saturday at Mansion, but it's correct now.

Maybe I'm just losing it. Could be, could be.

GL us.

Not a good start.

Penguinfan · #7 09-22-06, 08:25 PM

Another game where those damn yellow flags are deciding things.

Instead of fighting with guns and tanks over in Iraq they should all just carry yellow flags, you can't beat those things.

How does the -1.40 work for the detroit bet??

Penguinfan · #9 09-22-06, 08:49 PM

You are just betting on Detroit to win, no point spread, but since you are getting the precieved better team/pitcher you have to lay some weight.

In this bet you would have to lay $140 to win $100.

If the line were -1.65 you would have to lay $165 to win $100, etc.....

If you wanted to bet on KC in this game the line would be +1.30, meaning if you lay $100 you stand to win $130.

This adjustment in how much you lose if your favored team loses keeps people from just betting the Yankees every night and killing the books.

Nevada is doing much better now 17-7 End of 1st

Penguinfan · #11 09-22-06, 09:04 PM

This one is gonna go down to the wire and end up with a score of covering either way, simply because Nevada's defensive line is not playing up to par by any stretch.

jillaj · #12 09-22-06, 11:18 PM

Big interception for a touchdown.

Robbr25 · #13 09-22-06, 11:18 PM

A INT for a TD by Nevada's defense on NW 2 min drive saved us !
TY Penguinfan and Nevada's D !!

Robbr25 · #14 09-22-06, 11:23 PM

Tigers won too, Guess I should have taken that one also

omahilo · #15 09-23-06, 12:02 AM

sweet hit Nevada -7 and the OVER 46.5

I also parlayed this so I won some nice money there...

Im 2-0 this year on my 2 team same game parlays. nailed this one and WV last week with the over and pts. I would post those plays but I dont really recommand betting parlays, I do it just for fun more than anything else and put less than one unit on it.

Talking Poker · #16 09-23-06, 12:06 AM

Atta boy!

See, I never doubted. Off to a 2-0 start... Here's hoping for a 5-1 or so weekend!

Penguinfan · #17 09-23-06, 04:52 AM

I'm not proud of thw way we had to back door the Nevada game, but it makes up for the games we lose that way I guess.
And 1? You don't make the final table hoping to finish second do you? 6-0!

Talking Poker · #18 09-23-06, 11:33 AM

Nope, but I'm still happy (sort of) when I finish second. If you always set unrealistic goals, you always end up disappointed.
