I went to Rivers Casino in Schenectady today. I bet a total of 14 units spread out over 4 scenarios:

Bet 4 units on Over 6.5 wins.  This is the lowest odds of bet 2 units to win another unit (Odds 1/2).  Pays 6 units

Bet 4 units on Over 7.5 wins. Even money bet 1 unit to win another unit (Odds 1/1).  Pays 8 units

Bet 4 units on Over 8.5 wins.  Bet 1 unit to win another 2 units (Odds 2/1).  Pays 12 units

Bet 2 units on Bills making the playoffs.  Bet 1 unit to win another 3.25 units. Pays 8.5 units.   EDIT: The original said 3.5 when it should be 3.25

 

Basically, the break even point is 8 wins & no playoffs.  9 wins produces a 12 unit profit & 9 or more wins & the playoffs produces a 20.5 unit profit.  

 

The payout for wins was underwhelming. So I put 1 unit each on making the playoffs (Pays 4 units,) winning the AFC East (pays 13 units,) and the Super Bowl (80 units.)

Yeah, I haven't been happy with the odds for over on the season so I went with the opener instead (parlayed with the Browns winning their opener as well, which would probably be my pick if I were in a survival league.) 1 unit wins 2.54.

I'm pretty sure they have Super Bowl bets since I was able to get a future on the Bills making the playoffs, but I never looked for the Super Bowl.  If you're there it's easier using the kiosks, they have someone there to help you.  Their phone # is on my tickets, if you have any questions you can call them at 518-579-8800, but don't be shocked if they don't know the answer.  I went to the window 1st, the teller didn't know about futures, then her supervisor told me to check the kiosk, the kiosk guide knew where to get to the futures & I bet it there.  Also since the odds for the Bills are around 80/1 to 100/1 from what I've seen online, if you're betting enough to bring the potential winnings to over $10,000 I'd advise breaking them into smaller tickets since on the back of my tickets it says you need ID if the payment is over $10,000.  

In the words of Stillwell from the movie A League of Their Own "You're gonna lose" 

Thank you so much! I’ll swing by there and try the kiosk. That last part you’re probably right, haha!

I'm shocked they have those kind of O/U prop style bets in Schenectady of all places. Don't even have that here in Vegas. It's one O/U and that's all you're gonna get. Nice. Hope you didn't jinx us.
