Hello,
Glad I found this forum. I've always been obsessed with football, and am going to start putting some bets down this season. I'm not someone who is looking to make a living by making bets, just want to make watching games even more exciting. There's a ton of industry lingo here, and as someone who hasn't ever made a bet I need to ask these questions in the noob forum.
I fully understand the spread, total and money line in sports betting. I'm personally only looking to make moneyline bets on wins/losses. What I don't understand with Bookmaker.com is when I go to place my bet, do I choose wager amount, to win amount, or risk amount? Those all seem like the same thing to me...
I don't want to go with any of these handicapping services, but I'm looking for something to explain all these abbreviations I'm always seeing. Any suggestions? Any strictly reference books out there? Magazines?
I'd really appreciate the help, and thanks!
