    Are you telling me that they've taken more bets on the Seahawks at -1000 than the Rams +14? Who lays -1000 in an NFL game?

    10K or so. There was zero chance the Niners lost unless the whole team simultaneously died on the field. Plus was hungover and didn't wanna deal with laying points/backdoor etc.

    I got ya.

    Well I'd never lay -1000 under any circumstances, but to me, taking the Niners over the Jags is a hell of a lot different than backing the Seahawks on the road against a divisional foe on MNF. I'm not saying Seattle loses by any means, but it's not nearly the same slam-dunk bet as far as I'm concerned.

    The gap between the Niners/Jags and Seahawks/Rams isn't anywhere near the same to have identical odds.

    Coiner like I posted yesterday the true ml on the Niners game should have been -3000. They had zero chance. No refs, players or god could have intervened enough to help.

    Bet -470 or something on saints yesterday. Took them ats too. Something just clicked in ny head like "man why not just hammer the saints straight up, fukk grinding out 6 games, ending up 4-2 and barely over a unit..fukk all that, let's have some fun"

    Ended up still grinding out 6 ATS but if the saints hit the rest was just icing on the top, or at least insurance for a disaster.

    10% return with greater than 80% probability.

    Read the above statement again and show me how many investments you can make in real life to get that kind of return.

    Obviously people are going to jump on that.

    Anyone willing to lay -1000 in this spot hasn't really watched these two teams play much this year.

    Should it hit? Yes. Will it hit? ....

    I don't share the numbers you share, vyom re: the probability of ROI.

    Did a -1000 NFL ML play lose this year?

    When was the last time a -14 lost straight up in the NFL?

    No one "buried" anyone, moron. It's just my opinion of this matchup vs. his. No one is necessarily "right" or "wrong" on the probability of this ML hitting -- we just have how we cap the game compared to the number the books give us.

    You can't grasp any concepts re: gambling other than losing or copying other people's picks, though, so I wouldn't expect you to understand.

    But -1000 don't. I can't remember the last time a -14 fav in the NFL lost straight up. Maybe in the 80's.

    Something doesn't add up. The Falcons were -9.5. The Seahawks are -13.5. Why are the ML's almost the same?
