TimC Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Hey Sailor! New in town??? You mean business I am out Ted, don't leave me with these worthless things. Everyone knows deep down in their heart in places we don't like to talk about that the Cowboys are going to beat both of these teams in the next month.

Puddy Posted January 12, 2010 Author Share Posted January 12, 2010 There's always another way to do this. I could just offer Saints bettors 3-1 odds myself and take wagers in $25 increments until I reach a level I'm comfortable with. Colt's fans 2-1. Who's in?

Henry Muto Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 How about just keep them and see how it turns out. You have the 2 home field favorites what more could you ask for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prolly be what happens. That's what I did last year and it paid off. Although I did take the Cardinals (and the points) in the Superbowl with a couple of Huddlers to hedge my bet. I won the bets and hit on the slip. Daddy got a new TV Chihuahua out of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunday Couch Potatoe Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 $5.05...you gotta blow the people out of the water when auctioning. Put the fear of God in 'em. Nice too rich for my blood! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justin Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 ......I have the Colts at 14-1 .... I'm thinking of selling. Who's interested? Let the auction begin Sell that ticket now, because come Sunday morning, it will be worth diddly poo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdrudge Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Actually it says +700...not sure that that means It means the Colts have to beat the Vikings by over 700 points in order to cover the spread. About where I'd expect it to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdrudge Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 I am saving you a trip to Vegas Would I have to travel to Vegas to claim my winnings of either team wins? If so, I presume travel costs are included with the slip. I'll go $6.03 for the Colts slip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Now, if you had a Jets betting slip, I'd give ya $500. Good thing you don't have one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll go $6.03 for the Colts slip. I just mailed mine in last year. A couple of weeks later a check showed up in my mail. Now I was nervous about the mail so I insured it for the value of the ticket which cost me $12 or so. Where are the confident Colts or Saints fans? An opportunity to turn $175 into $525 just by winning a couple of more games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Beatings Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 I'll have to double-check my ticket..., but IIRC I've got $40 on the Vikes to win the Superbowl from the Venetian at something like 22 to 1. It was purchased pre-Favre this last Summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS Miscreant Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Hell, what am I waiting for? I'll just give you the $850 you'd be getting on your return and take them off your hands because I'm just a good guy like that. Of course you should know that at the combined odds of 32-1 on that $850 I am all but assured of a $27K jackpot. Cha-ching !! Sucka!! At least I think it works that way. It does, right? Well, at least I know that one of them is guaranteed to win it all. They play this weekend don't they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was entertaining myself which clearly is not difficult to do. Carry on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
