Outside of maybe betting a dollar or two on a billion-dollar lottery ticket once a year. It seems wasteful. it's a fun form of recreation, people who cannot sit still in life can sit there for 8 hours at a poker game with friends, giving rapt attention the internet has provided other free forms of timewasting that can eat up all your leisure hours though The cost of one admission is your mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't hard. there are all kinds of agents and syndicates placing large wagers, especially if an error is perceived, had a great insider book (somewhere in my library) discussing the point spread, and how the book allowed a syndicate to place a monster wager on a mistake before adjusting the spread, a courtesy feature for customers... the concept of the point spread is almost a miracle of man's mind, the way it is quickly set and rarely deviates and gets people who care to max out at 45% in a given year Edited December 18, 2018 by row_33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In spite of the whiners, the Bills are playing hard and the Pats* are half the team they used to be. Granted, I would stay away from the game, altogether, but Pats* -13 is a crappy bet. No way we lose to them by 13. The MNF game was a 3-6 point game into the fourth quarter with Derek Anderson at QB and our offense still playing at a historically bad level.

How much did the quarter pay? 1st & 3rd pay $15,000, Half pays $20,000 Final pays $50,000. It's $20 a week. I easily spend double that each week on FF and Draft.com.
