agreed.. i live in chicago, and my friends are always giving me **** about the packers, so check this out, this is how arrogant bears fans are.. i made the following bets with 2 of my friends: $10 that the bears wont go 16-0 @ 10:1 odds (i wont that bet), $20 on the chargers against the bears, i gave 5.5 points (i won that bet), and i have 1 more bet to win, which is $10 @ 10:1 odds that the bears dont win it all.. the problem is, they both seriously (i think) believed 16-0, yet neither of them would do a 10.5 wins over/under, with them picking the over.. CLEARLY that means that even tho they claim 16-0, they dont even think with 51% certainty that the bears will get 11 wins.. my prediction at the beginning of the season was bears 10-6, packers 7-9.. you could say im an extremely honest packers fanChefJJ said:No offense...but try picking them against the spread.
You must be betting differently than what you are posting then, because they didn't hit the over.glovesetc said:they almost covered but fell short . up .3 units now . See you all next week . :grin: :cool2:
Ok buddy. 10-4 over and out.glovesetc said:read the piost - said they almost covered and I did lose . The .3 units is the total win for the season so far . sorry if there was confusion there buddy . :grin: :cool2: Seems McNabb is but a shell of his former self and he was limping all last night . He may not make the season finale .
what does "2 points for 2 units" mean? im not good with betting, i dont know all the lingo, i just know what over/under and saying like packers -5 (meaning the score is basically 5-0 packers lead when the game starts)glovesetc said:green bay - 2 points for 2 units . New england 5 units at minus 7 and the over for 3 units the under over is 53 and also take the over in the denver indy game for 3 units which is 46 !!!! Good luck and have a good one !!!!! :grin: :cool2:
If you take the Packers at -5, that actually means that they need to win by more than 5 points. They are "giving" the other team those 5.SilentBob420BMFJ said:what does "2 points for 2 units" mean? im not good with betting, i dont know all the lingo, i just know what over/under and saying like packers -5 (meaning the score is basically 5-0 packers lead when the game starts)
I'm only giving the right info...you're the man nailing the picks lately. Keep it up! $1K units is pretty high-roller too--grab that cash!glovesetc said:Unit is amount of money wagered and then times the unit . My ubnit is 1,000.00 as that is what we bet in multiples of . Everyone can assign their own value to a unit . Chef gave you the right info - wtg chef !!!! :grin: :cool2:
Well, sort of. In this case, the Packers are -1...so they are spotting the team that many points and would need to win by AT LEAST 1 point.SilentBob420BMFJ said:ya, i meant to say packers +5 would mean the score is 5-0 packers at the start of the game, is basically how you can think of it
