    I only made one casino sports bet -- it was on Denver to beat whoever the heck they were playing one Sunday. Caesars gave me a free $100 bet. Denver won and beat the spread. I was paid $140.

    My previous big sports bet was on Canonero to win the Belmont Stakes and the Triple Crown. I was there with my fraternity brothers from Tau Epsilon Phi in Syracuse. We lost what the world thought was a "lock." I think I lost $10. Maybe it was $20.

    But you came to the right place to talk about sports bets. We have a couple sports bettors here.

    It breaks up the winter doldrums, plus I'm pretty good at it

    Most all the Vegas and Offshore books have the game Xavier -17.5 at -110.

    I don't like the juice on the NHL over bet.

    My local is tough, sometimes I get a break sometimes I don't... Let's hope that half doesn't cost me a W

    1st half: Richmond 40-27 W + $300

  12. #12
    Game:
    St Joseph's 87-73 W + $700

    Game:
    Richmond 83-61 W + $700

    4-0 tonight in College Hoops + $2,100

  13. #13
    Now I have to ask: what do all these things mean? For example, when you write:

    Richmond 83-61 W + $700

    What does that mean?

  14. #14
    It means that the Richmond score was 83-61. The game won versus the spread, therefore the "W," and the amount he won on his game bet was $700, so he was +$700 on the game bet itself.

    NHL:

    Blue Jackets 3-1 Lost my bet - $1,550

    All the Vegas and Offshore books are showing the juice on this bet at -115 to -120. So it looks like you got a pretty good discount.

    On this bet yes, but last night I paid $155 when I could have got it at $140 earlier in the day.. He adjusts as day goes on
