[the Bookie]

If you're new, the system is pretty self explanatory. It works just like a 'Book in Vegas.

Pick your event, place your wager, and we go from there. You'll notice a "vig" on each bet ...again, if you're new.

A few lines haven't been published...I'll keep it updated as time allows.

Did anyone ask Pete Rose?..

 

[rick4bama]

36's in the first week? I mean spread it out before taking it all in week one!

Utah favored over Florida? Oh no... I'll take Florida right now.

Utah favored over Florida? Oh no... I'll take Florida right now.

They're projected to carry one of the best home field advantages (3.2; 14th of 131) in football this season.

In the last ten years they've been 56.7% ATS, since '20 60% ATS.

Looking forward to playing again this year.

Are you going to go ahead and give the Bookie half your Bucks!

 

[TerryP]

There's one game I see this week with 1:3 odds I'm going BIGLY on ...

Are you going to go ahead and give the Bookie half your Bucks!

He'll probably end up with more than half.

Utah favored over Florida? Oh no... I'll take Florida right now.

Where does their offense come from? I've looked at this a few times and can't walk away from a few things. Let's start with QB play.

Last year Richardson wasn't that good. But the guy they brought in, Mertz? He brings fewer yards per game and a worse TD:INT ratio (19:10 last year.)

In the props for this season with Florida at a 5½ total? Put me down on the under.

 

[Justneedme81]

I still get a feeling Florida pulls off a stunner.

So I'm not new but what does this mean vig?

So I'm not new but what does this mean vig?

From a Forbes article I've saved for the Resource section here.

Sportsbooks couch the vig in the odds they offer. You won’t find any “vig” section within a sportsbook app, as the betting odds listed for a match or game already include the vig.

Let’s say an evenly matched game is coming up where oddsmakers give each team a 50-50 shot to win. The odds on the game would be +100. In other words, a winning $100 bet would pay a $100 profit.

If you’ve spent time on a sports betting mobile app, you know this isn’t how most odds look. In an even matchup, sports betting sites will typically offer odds of around -110 on either team.

A $100 bet on those odds would pay out a $90.91 profit, leaving about 9% of your total bet with the sportsbook.

That 9% or $9.09 represents the sports book’s share and is essentially a surcharge for taking and processing your bet.

Line movement alert ... just sayin'

We'll update here as soon as Vi updates.

 

[252BAMA]

How about UTSA at Houston?

How about UTSA at Houston?

Back to an old refrain on my part.

Recall...we moved to the cloud based server with the past six months or so ... leaving some of the programs/software we run either obsolete or outdated. The 'book was one. It forced the creator to update his part where he added a lot. There aren't a lot of sites running his 'book in our environment. So...some of this is a bit of a trial run.

As crazy as this is going to sound...

IF the update on the lines runs successfully, no.
IF the update on the lines doesn't run like I expect? Yes, I'll add it this week.

 

[252BAMA]

NM on UTSA-Houston. UTSA is now the favorite on most books. UTSA was going to be my Underdog Lock of the Week. Which usually goes to a home team underdog.

 

[TerryP]

Navy / Notre Dame did some damage.

 

[the Bookie]

There are more tickets this season on Hawaii than any other team.

 

[TerryP]

This is why I shouldn't put games up early. I've got over 350K out ... and didn't really realize. Well, sort of...played one moneyline heavily.
