SkinsTight Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 My buddy asked me if I want to bet this weekend Skins vs Rams straight up, no point spread. If Skins win I get one Bejamin and if Rams win he gets ten benjamins? What you all think? should i take that to the bank? disclaimer: Gamling is not legal in VA, this is monopoly money we are playing. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ST is my boy Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 No....thats a stupid bet. You only get 100 bucks out of it.....and say the Rams....who could very well come out of no where and make this a game win you lose a grand? You would have to be crazy.

I am more confident in the Skins than I have been in a long time and I feel REAL good about Sunday, but this is the NFL. IMO there is just too much parity for ME to take that kind of bet. Good luck!!

You would have to be crazy. seems like a lot of money to put up. i mean any team can win any sunday, so putting up a grand seems pretty risky... plus by doing this you will jinx the **** out of us. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicious Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 10 to 1 isn't a fair bet to you, It's an NFL game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsTight Posted October 10, 2008 Author Share Posted October 10, 2008 I am 100% confident we are going to win. so I just signed the deal. I have been talking all kind of junk with my buddy (in good fun that is) so I got to put my money where my mouth is. GOing to spend that 100 bucks at tonight on the BOARD WALK next to Park Avenue.

TD_washingtonredskins Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Look at the money line and use that for your odds. 10-1 is just dumb! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsTight Posted October 10, 2008 Author Share Posted October 10, 2008 Look at the money line and use that for your odds. 10-1 is just dumb! I agree now that i think about it but it's done, the hand has been shook and the deal has been sealed. GO skins! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SavageForce21 Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Do not take that bet. You'll get better straight up odds on a sports betting website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Caish Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 You did what you had to do. You put your money where your mouth is. This better not jinx the Redskins!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never4get#21 Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Not risky on no spread. Vegas has the Skins at -14. Vegas wont give you a straight up odds. The best you can do is a parley to reduce the spread. With that, the Skins are a lock to win. Will they beat the spread well thats where the $$$$$ is. I would take a straight up bet anytime. Try to talk him down alittle HAHAHA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanceman_1 Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Ask him if he will consider 200 to 2000. That's what I would do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsTight Posted October 10, 2008 Author Share Posted October 10, 2008 With the way the market is and how my investment portfolio is heading this is a great buy. skins will not lose period. If I didn't have confident I would have done it. Nothing is a guarantee in life but this is pretty dam close to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsTight Posted October 10, 2008 Author Share Posted October 10, 2008 just bet money line with bookie I am aware of all the odds and betting onlines. But It's more fun going against your buddy and backing it up where it counts. beside there is a disclaimer saying this is monopoly money! wink.

RedskinzOwnU Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Yes, you can get a moneyline on this game. The line is -650. That means that the fair bet isn't 10 to 1, but 6.5 to 1. He shouldn't win more than 650 on this bet. You would win almost twice as much money betting 1K against a sportbook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Monk Fan Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 I read the title and thought you were taking a bet that we'd go 10-1 on the season. For what's it's worth I'd take both bets (so long as we're playing with your money, that is). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
