while we're at it can someone explain to me the american way of laying odds?

what does +195 mean?

i don't understand betting too well at the best of time,but in europe if the odds are 6-1 then if i bet ten dollars i get seventy back total if i win,but i don't know how it works over there...

+195 is basically for ever dollar you bet you get 1.95 back, so 100$ bet gets you 195


usually there is 2 numbers

+195
-175

a negative number means that is how much you have to bet to win 100$


The difference is teh vig, that is pretty low vig for this bet, and I think +195 is a pretty decent price.
