Also, side note, I know BTC is at $113 each on mtgox, however I believe BTC will reach $100 in the near future. I am paying $100 cash any low cost method (would prefer bank deposit) for 30 BTC in preparation for NFL season of betting. PM me if interested. This offer will remain open as long as BTC is at least selling for $99.25 on mtgox.

Two lines I like for tomorrow, put a little on each. Will update tomorrow if any additional plays or higher wager on either play.
06/21:
Oakland Athletics ML -105 Risking $210 To Win $200. WIN
Texas Rangers ML +110 Risking $100 To Win $110. WIN


Also considering the over 6.5 (-120 currently) for the Oakland vs Seattle game, I normally do not bet over/unders often, however both pitchers have faced the other team in the past week or so and Seattle's pitcher got lit up by Oakland in that game. This might lead to batters seeing the pitchers well tomorrow since they just faced the respective opponent pitcher. However, another thing to look at for over/unders is the weather and wind which the data for such is not out yet. Will let you guys know if I choose to bet it tomorrow. BOL to all.

Yeah, +8 seemed way too good to be true.  Good thing I didn't put more into it!

10-0 FT crazy stuff. Thats why if it looks to be too good to be true in sports betting it somehow always ends up losing if u play it  Roll Eyes +8 biggest spread I've seen in soccer I must say.

esp with a big cup like that

Why is Spain performing so good. I mean why is Tahiti not resisting ANYTHING at all?

Spain is always good.  Tahiti is... well... Tahiti.

No clue why they are even playing in the cup at all lol

Really hope the Heat fall on their asses tonight.  I hate that team so much.

I got 0.05 BTC on the Spurs ML.

Also, 4-0, 41'... looks like the smarter bet was the 8.5 o/u on the ESP/TAH match.

hopefully I can get a push!

ya I took the under come on spain go easy on em second half LOL

If I would have stopped and thought about it for a second then I would have taken the under, too.

Essentailly 8.5 under was TAH +8.5, as I don't think anyone expects Tahiti to score a goal... and I took TAH +8

Oh well, as long as the score is not 8-0 then I will be fine with it Smiley

lol ya its going to be close for both of us!

-166.7 is the american odds of your bet. When the symbol before the number is "-" such as -120 or -150, you risk THAT amount to win $100. When the odds are "+xxx" then you WIN that xxx amount in profit for a $100 wager. So say you like the heat tonight to just win outright, a line might be -300, you must risk $300 to win $100 in profit. Or $3 to win $1 in profit. However what if you like the spurs at +250, then risking $100 would payout $250 in profit, a total payout of $350 back to you if they won. For this situation of washington nationals you must risk 1.667 btc to win 1 btc exactly in profit. On bitbook you will also see decimal odds which are the same payout but can be easier to calculate payouts for some players. For example a -200 line would be 1.50 decimal, for decimal odds you simply multiply your bet by the decimal odds. So risking $200 on a 1.50 odds game would be $200 x 1.5 = $300. For american -200 means you would risk $200 to win $100, so risking $200 would pay you back $300. These are the same payouts just different ways to show the odds for a game. I personally find american lines easier to read/calculate but thats just me.

I need to copy and paste this for when people ask good write up!

Just placed my first ever sports bet based on KOS pick. glgl us

Im sorry for such a rudimentary question but i placed my bet on bitbook. national ml is -166.7, so i placed a .01 btc bet to win .006 btc. can u explain what the -166.7 means. again sorry for being such a nood:)

KOS, would u mind if i post my results in ur thread as a way to keep myself updated?

It's based off 100's

166 means if you bet 100, you'd get 66 if you won
Since you bet 0.01, you get 0.006 if you win

Plus your 0.01 of course

Also guys check out Casinobitco.in, a new sportsbook that will have casino and sportsbook together in one! They are pretty cool, hopefully my deposit confirms quickly so I can place a wager there on Nationals tonight. I tested their payouts and they are smooth as can be, instant withdrawals and they give you a link to the blockchain.info link of the payout too. Please note, I am in no way linked to the owner, I am just a player that has agreed to test run their sportsbook.

thats a good idea with your record in the title! I am going to chnage mine!

I would put your overall +/- in there or don't put the record there at all, like some have said before if your betting -1000 games you expect your wins to be around 90% thus the thing of your record that matters is how much you are +/-, not really your overall win/loss record so to speak.
