Utopia Talk / Sports / SF Giants vs Tex Rangers

earthpig GTFO HOer	Tue Oct 26 20:55:33 Ya, I guess these two are going to the world series or whatever. Many at the local community college are growing beards and dying them black. Should I offer to bet $20 against the Giants? would be plenty of takers.
licker Sports Mod	Tue Oct 26 21:19:57 You should. The Rangers should win in 5 or 6.
earthpig GTFO HOer	Tue Oct 26 21:27:34 can anyone actually understand this stuff? http://www.docsports.com/world-series-odds.html not interested in making complex bets on the spread or the final score, just interested in betting on who will win. if this mumbo jumbo boils down to the Giants having a 30% chance of victory, and i can make a 1-1 bet on their losing, and i can afford to lose the money, then i would consider that a solid bet.
licker Sports Mod	Tue Oct 26 21:36:38 You bet -xxx to win 100 and you bet 100 to win +yyy Figure out what that makes the odds yourself if you care to. Otherwise if you can get even money bets and the rangers I'd take it.
earthpig GTFO HOer	Tue Oct 26 21:40:57 ok. so, vegas is confident that texas will win. sweet.
earthpig GTFO HOer	Tue Oct 26 21:41:24 and, that was much more concise than the various google results i've found. ty licker.
licker Sports Mod	Tue Oct 26 21:51:14 I aim to please ;)
earthpig GTFO HOer	Tue Oct 26 21:57:13 I think that when everyone is gathering for one of my classes, i'm go call out the most outspoken Giants fan in the class for a $500 1:1 bet. afterwards, if i can, i should seek out someone that offers vegas odds and bet $500 in favor of the Giants.
licker Sports Mod	Tue Oct 26 22:25:57 But then you'd have to root for the giants...
Dakyron Member	Wed Oct 27 09:41:58 Giants have home field advantage, which means alot in the world series. I wouldnt discount them.
kendal Member	Wed Oct 27 12:41:41 Giants in 6
Milton Bradley Member	Wed Oct 27 17:24:41 "ok. so, vegas is confident that texas will win. sweet. " Nope. Vegas wants betting to be even for each team and it will adjust the odds so that that happens. Who Vegas "thinks" will win is not a factor.
earthpig GTFO HOer	Mon Nov 08 21:58:19 Well then, I didn't see that one coming.
licker Sports Mod	Tue Nov 09 00:56:48 not many did, not many did
Milton Bradley Member	Sat Nov 13 10:21:00 I did.
The Powers That Be Member	Sat Nov 13 14:37:54 That World Series came and went. Did anyone even watch it?
Madc0w Member	Sat Nov 13 19:47:32 So who won the World Series?

Clitoral Hood The Bloody Scourge	Wed Nov 17 14:38:00 texas vs. san fran and you make a gay joke... like it singles one out. :-/
licker Sports Mod	Wed Nov 17 23:29:39 Oh come on, everyone knows there are more closet gays in texas than in the rest of the world.
Clitoral Hood The Bloody Scourge	Thu Nov 18 00:12:08 obviously. which is why saying the winning team is gay doesn't help.
