NO! if you lay 3000 down on a 30/1 odds and win, you walk with 90,000So, if I lay $3000 I coud easily win $100. Doesn't quite seem worth it and I'm sure not going to waste $100 hoping against hope to make $3000.

Is USC eligible this year?Laid down a dime spot on Nebraska and a dime spot on USC Trojans and a dime on tiger to win a major.
A dime (as in 10 cents) is about all I'd ever feel comfortable betting on sports.Redtillimdead said:Laid down a dime spot on Nebraska and a dime spot on USC Trojans and a dime on tiger to win a major.
Yes they are. Why do you think Barkley is coming back? to win a championship. Honestly i expect USC to be heavily favored to win it all.MLB 51 said:Is USC eligible this year?Redtillimdead said:Laid down a dime spot on Nebraska and a dime spot on USC Trojans and a dime on tiger to win a major.
That would be taking odds. Laying odds is when you bet the other side of the coin. When you lay odds, you generally bet more to win less. At 30/1, you are better off putting your money into a mutual fund then laying odds....MichiganMan said:NO! if you lay 3000 down on a 30/1 odds and win, you walk with 90,000JJHusker1 said:So, if I lay $3000 I coud easily win $100.

30-1 odds on NU to win the MNC are the reason all those casinos on the Vegas strip are so opulent. :thumbsThat would be taking odds. Laying odds is when you bet the other side of the coin.

Wrong! You mistakenly assume I would lay that money on Nebraska. I thought I explained that sufficiently in my original post. You did know you can bet either side of that deal didn't you?MichiganMan said:NO! if you lay 3000 down on a 30/1 odds and win, you walk with 90,000JJHusker1 said:So, if I lay $3000 I coud easily win $100.
