I wish this didnt get moved to Off the Wall!

Whos everybody have for college this weekend?

Well not locked in I am kinda leaning Navy +20.5 

 

I also like under 44.5 Nebraska @ minnesota

 

I have Oklahoma -33.5 vs Arkansas State

 

That's what I'm putting my most money on

 

*** thank God I was getting funny feelings about the ND game and didn't bet it... I was thinking the option could speed up the game and limit possessions

Take Navy +20.5 at Notre Dame on August 26th.

Navy has been known to play the Irish tough and Navy’s style of offense translates better in an early opening game.

Just put a $100 on the Over for Bills wins for the season at 10.5

 

I feel pretty safe....was surprised they didn't set the line at 11 or 11.5 to be honest

I took UB to stay within 28 of Wisconsin.  I also put a tiny wager on the Bulls winning outright. (15:1)

Oh right, because you're in-state.

[Breakout Squad]

So I casually put a $45 bet on the Bills to win against the Jets week 1 ML. It’s not a big wager but I’m a small time bettor. Am I crazy for thinking the Bills are going to win?

Why are you waiting for a fav though? Won't it come up the closer it gets?

 

Take the Favs early, and the dogs late?

You are not required to sign anything for transactions over $1k. Just need to show your players card, it's not a big deal.

Pretty sure you get a W-2G to fill out 

 

Casino winnings over a certain amount are taxed by New York State and they will fill out the form and give it to you

Thank for starting this. Not the biggest college football fan (enjoy it but more of a nfl guy), I like Oregon State over wins along with Texas Tech.

What does the $75k the other way get you?

 

Assuming the odds are +25000 the other way it would be $18,750,000.

 

For anyone that is interested in the math on the odds lines they work like this.

 

If the odds are + the formula for what you would win is x/100 * $Bet

so: 25000 / 100 * $75,000 = $18,750,000

 

If the odds are - the formula for calculating winnings is 100/x * $Bet

so: 100 / 25000 * $75,000 = $300

 

Just to assist anyone still on the fence about becoming a part of the degenerate gamblers club with the rest of us. 😀😈

I thought that now it's anything over $600.00... betting, lottery, ebay, etc.
