Roll call for those betting over 6.5 wins

I like it 

I’d love to do the same, but I haven’t got a clue how to put down a bet.  I don’t live in Vegas, do I have to find the nearest sports book?  Any advice?  And don’t tell me to “move.”   I live in Wyoming....God’s country :)

betting the over/under wins in vegas isnt my thing because its just not worth it....put $500 down and only double your money? I could put $500 in stock/investment right now and do better by January than by betting that on the Bills.

 

But yes, I am certainly taking the over on that win total...its laughable really.

At the ripe age of 60, I’ve only placed one bet in my life.  

 

But I’m sorely tempted to put $100 down on the Bills on the over.   Barring catastrophic injuries, I don’t see how all the changes don’t give us another win.

I put down $500 and I rarely bet on the NFL. With the supposed soft schedule I feel like this is an easy bet. Who else is putting down some bucks?

 

Twin Rivers casino in Rhode Island is about 2 hours drive from me. I'm going to put a C-note on the over.

Where did you place this bet? Im down for 9-10 wins. Last season I said 4-5. I see at very minimum 8 and at most. 11. It all hinges on JA taking the next step and staying healthy.

Betting the over there is -150.  So $100 bet only wins $67.  What gives?

Technically you win $167 because you get your original $100 back.  But yea, I don't necessarily get why you would want to bet more than you would make.  If you were betting the under it makes sense but I honestly can't see them winning less than 6.

 

This is also why I don't gamble.  I'm good with numbers but not gambling numbers.

I guess the house doesn't really believe 6.5 wins.

It's heavily juiced to the over, I believe it's -170 to bet the over now, which means it'll probably be moved to 7 in the near future.

One of the few i believe has actually placed a bet..I aint buying the dude who said $500..

PTR, once a win line gets thrown out, they don't like to move them as just damn freaking easy to get middled to death.

 

So they move the juice ..if they are getting a ton of money on the over, they say you need to bet 150 to win 100..see Estro's post above.

 

Why any article you read on betting win totals says shopping lines is critical on these bets..some maybe -140, some -170...and thats a huge difference

 

I never play win totals, and 99% sure will not this year..but that is how it works
