| OT If Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk actually fight what are you setting the odds at?

It''s not exactly sports.
But, it is a fight, which would happen in a ring I'd assume.
And we do have the Sportsbook ...

So,

+150, good value.

 

[Rsedge72]

Slap fighting, maybe….

It's the preference of the administration of this forum that discussions about the current administration in Washington be posted on the non sports forum.

I don't know what the +/- minus means as far as odds, but I'm pulling for Musk.

I miss the days of 2/1, 5/1, etc.

Commie! They are called "American odds."

Fractional odds.

(Occasionally you might see decimal odds...rarely state-side though.)

2/1 = +200 ($2 pays $1.)
5/1 = +500 ($5 pays $1)

1/2 = -200 ($1 pays $2)
1/5 = -500 ($1 pays $5)

When I open the Sportsbook for the fall we can get into more detail if you like...I won't start building it for a couple more wees.

@SnakeDoc in this case ...

Zuck is -175. A $175 bet pays $100.
Musk is +150. A $100 bet pays $150.

They are both useless human beings… maybe when they get to scuffling the clot shot will do its job..

Thanks.

So it's based off betting $100, instead of $1 like in the old days, I guess.

Pretty much. With most bettors, the $100 mark is commonly "a unit."

OK. Not hard to guess I'm not a gambler.

Can we let Bill Gates referee?

Yeah. Well. I can't say the same.

When we get it started, jump in. It's an easy way for people to keep track of what's going on around the nation as well as having a little fun. I guarantee you you'll have a better grasp on the rest of the SEC by seasons end.

I will. I enjoy picking games when there's no money involved.

If things go according to plan you'll have four options to choose from...

Anybody know what the weight differential is? Arm lengths?

I've read a few articles about Zuck having jujitsu training ... that'll take away a height, weight, and reach advantage pretty quickly IF he's truly been training.
