Online Betting Question
OK, normally I just place bets with my friends on the spreads and that's it. Today I signed up online to bet on the Skins and it was REALLY confusing. I bet a "Straight Up Wager" on the Skins at +9.5.
What scenarios will win me some money?

Re: Online Betting Question
Skins win outright, or they lose by 9 or less.

Re: Online Betting Question
Yeah, I just f*cking knew that if we lost, it would be by 10 to add that insult to injury.

Re: Online Betting Question
It freaks me out how accurate Vegas is! Granted, I am a skins homey, but i never thought it would be that much of a margin

Re: Online Betting Question
You should've bought it up to 10, that way you would've pushed. Always buy it up to 10 or if you're giving up 10, buy it down. Same with 7 or 3.

Re: Online Betting Question
Good call. I didn't know a lot about betting online but I'll know better next time.
