Billsfansinceday1 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 I don’t typically bet, except for quarter slots, when in Vegas. That said, I would appreciate a PM for a reputable place to bet on the Bills. I am very confident that we will win more than 7 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaattMaann Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 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.

hondo in seattle Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 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. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

KD in CA Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 What is the deal with sports gambling these days? I understand states beyond NV and NJ can and are now passing laws to legalize it in casinos, but as far as I know, online is still not legal anywhere due to the same banking regs that killed online poker way back. Is that right? Is it changing anytime soon? To me the offshore stuff is like going to a whorehouse without a condom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 I put 50 on the Bills over. The best gambling advice I ever was given was don't gamble an amount of money you aren't comfortable losing. But I do wonder why the over under is set so low for the Bills. This roster won 6 games last year and they weren't a few miracles either. They lost some close games and won some close ones. All in all it balanced out and they were a firm 6 win team due to the defense and Josh Allen's play towards the end of the season. This team added a lot of talent via free agency and had a well received draft. I thought they would peg the over under between 7.5 and 8.5 which would be fair given how much of an unknown Allen is. But 6.5 just seems low. This team had really bad talent last year and still got carried to 6 wins by the defense which is intact and added the 9th overall pick and is mostly young or prime at most positions and doesn't lack depth. Vegas isn't stupid I wonder what they are projecting for the Bills to place it at 6.5? I think that Vegas probably does a lot of their analysis via advanced analytics, those analytics don't favor our QB and they probably bet against them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At -170, you're better off leaving it alone and hoping it goes to 7 + money. The difference would be that 7 wins would be a push and not a loss, but you'd more than double your money. At -170, you gotta put up 170 to win 100. Just not a fan of that. 8 hours ago, plenzmd1 said: yea, i don't know if I would rather have the over 6.5 -170, or the over 7 + 120..need an extra true...maybe someone who bets win totals could help me out here a bit.
