Vegas Odds

jbcjr14 · 04-02-2007, 09:51 AM

I was in Vegas this past weekend and just an FYI, the Skins were at 40/1 odds to win the Super Bowl. Of course, I laid $20 on it just in case! Other noteables were:

Dallas 13/1
NYG 25/1
Texans 100/1

Yeah why not? I'd fire $20 on the Skins at 40/1.

dmek25 · 04-02-2007, 09:59 AM

did you play roulette? and how much did you win?

jbcjr14 · 04-02-2007, 10:32 AM

I didn't play any roulette. I played both final four games and won $189 with the take to the house and then won about $500 playing blackjack. Still didn't end up on top with the wifey playing the slots! Its a great town, love that place but about 4 days is all I can take!

@Schneed: LOL

So $20 at 40/1 ... what's that $800, if they win the Superbowl?

jbcjr14 · 04-02-2007, 01:25 PM

Actually would be $720 as 10% goes to the house.

GhettoDogAllStars · 04-02-2007, 01:35 PM

Yeah, I figured some would go to the house. I just didn't know how much, since I've never done that kinda gambling before. Still, $700 profit isn't too shabby! Here's hoping you win!

Can't argue with that.

I have $20 on Skins winning the Super Bowl at 50/1 from MGM Grand.

Do a search.
The vegas odds are 50/1 so maybe the 40/1 bet was not the best.

When we win this year I get the $1000 plus the $20 back for a total of $1020.00

What's up Mike? I miss your pics, and the "peace mike" at the end of your posts.

How's your son doing?

Ya, I did my bet at the Mandalay Bay and the opening odds were 50/1 and now are 40/1 (when I was there). I would have taken the bet either way!

Good to be missed and I missed some of ya'll too.

Elijah's cancer came back and now he is about 1/2 way through Chemotherapy. He's a little beat up and we shaved our heads together. We have faith he will get through this fine. Thanks for asking.

peace
