Re: *** OFFICIAL 11/29/07 NFL Thursday GAME THREAD (GB @ DAL)***
this is an active thread so i need some quick help with a dumb question: On Wsex my co-worker wants to place some futures bets...i.e. bet on dallas to win the superbowl.
when u go to the site it says Dallas Sell: 11 Buy: 13 then +669 If u click on buy or sell it asks u to place an order and for dallas it say $13 buy and then # of contracts...i assume that means number of future bets. so is it simply saying you want to buy a future bet of Dallas +669 to win SB and your wager is $13? When u click on the buy menu it goes as low as $1 and as high as $23. WTF? I'm totally [censored] lost???? and i tried reading the help instructions on the site. any help for a retard please |

$13 buy = pay 13, if it wins they pay 100
so if you buy 5 contracts it'll cost you $65 and if they win you'll get $500 back if they make it to the superbowl and the sell is like 30 then you can sell your 5 contracts and get $150 back or let it ride |

Why do they allow u to buy for more than $13..i.e u can go all the way up to 23. and why even list the +669 |

The buy/sell value of these units change throughout the season. Bet the $13, win 87, get 100 [ QUOTE ] "why even list the +669" [/ QUOTE ] For our benefit that's the decimal equivalent value of $13 becoming $100 ($13x6.69= $87 +13 = $100) FWIW the buy/sell spread of $2 makes this around a 17% juice factor.
