sabills Posted October 13, 2016 Report Posted October 13, 2016 Well, first, you mail your initial $2000 investment to me so I can include you in. Hank runs the contest but I hold the cash. I also take S&H Green Stamps and six Dairy Queen coupons are good for $10. Address is 1185 Avenue of the Americas, 15th Floor, Manhattan, NY 10036. Missed this before. The check is in the mail! I'll blow 105 on the Sabres, too. Price being out is bigger for Montreal than Eichel is for the Sabres. Quote
Samson's Flow Posted October 13, 2016 Report Posted October 13, 2016 Seeing as I will be out of town beginning tonight and all the way through next Sunday (10/22) I guess the rules force me to bet on this game or you all will think I'm a sandbagging cheater. :nana: Sabres - 105Habs - 115 Given the line, I'll take a Sabres bet of $105 Current bankroll: $2,000 Quote
pi2000 Posted October 13, 2016 Report Posted October 13, 2016 I'll bet two units on the Habs. They always play well in Buffalo, and the Sabres are still reeling from the Eichel injury, which will hurt them mentally for a bit here before they rally. Quote
MattPie Posted October 13, 2016 Report Posted October 13, 2016 (edited) 1 on the Sabres. Current bankroll: US$2000 EDIT: wait, do our Canadian members start off with $2620? Edited October 13, 2016 by MattPie Quote
Drunkard Posted October 13, 2016 Report Posted October 13, 2016 Sabres - 105 Habs - 115 Put me down for one unit on the Sabres. Quote
wjag Posted October 13, 2016 Report Posted October 13, 2016 Current bank: 2000 Today's Bet: 1 unit on Habs ... Too many Sabres on the pine. Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted October 13, 2016 Report Posted October 13, 2016 One unit on the Sabres. Lehner steals one. Quote
3putt Posted October 13, 2016 Report Posted October 13, 2016 2 units on the Home Team. Go Sabres! Quote
Neo Posted October 13, 2016 Report Posted October 13, 2016 (edited) Two units, Les Habitants ... Start $2,000 Wager $ 230 Balance Before Result: $1,770 Did I do that right? Edited October 13, 2016 by N'eo Quote
SwampD Posted October 13, 2016 Report Posted October 13, 2016 (edited) Two units, Les Habitants ... Start $2,000 Wager $ 230 Balance Before Result: $1,770 Did I do that right? No. If the Sabres win, that will be your balance. If the Habs win, you will have 2200. Edited October 13, 2016 by SwampD Quote
ubkev Posted October 14, 2016 Report Posted October 14, 2016 No. If the Sabres win, that will be your balance. If the Habs win, you will have 2200. Correct. You don't have to pay your bookie until after the game is over. So you'd still have your whole 2k. Quote
Drunkard Posted October 14, 2016 Report Posted October 14, 2016 I should have bet on the Habs. I now have a balance of $1,895 if I'm doing it right. Quote
ubkev Posted October 16, 2016 Report Posted October 16, 2016 Let's get this back to the top of the page so Hank can post the line. Quote
Neo Posted October 16, 2016 Report Posted October 16, 2016 Hank ... shall we all post "where we think we stand" before each bet? In other words, are we keeping track ourselves, or are you keeping track? I want it easy for you, of course. I believe I'm at $2,200, having wagered two units on Montreal. I'll restate my self calculated standing before each bet to give you, and others, the ability to check my math as we move forward. Swamp and ubkev. ... thank you. Seems I had the math correct, but my language and timing was improved by your comments. My post stopped at "before the result". I'd have been clearer if I'd described what I believed the results would do. Quote
Eleven Posted October 16, 2016 Report Posted October 16, 2016 Right now, the line at betdsi.com is Sabres +155, Edmonton -175. Quote
Hank Posted October 16, 2016 Author Report Posted October 16, 2016 Right now, the line at betdsi.com is Sabres +155, Edmonton -175. What he said. Thanks eleven. Neo, that would be helpful, thank you. I will post standings on Mondays. Quote
ubkev Posted October 16, 2016 Report Posted October 16, 2016 Hmm...Talbot in net for the Oil, he's given up a gang of goals so far, yet he's 2-0. I don't know if I'm gonna touch this one. Quote
pastajoe Posted October 16, 2016 Report Posted October 16, 2016 Right now, the line at betdsi.com is Sabres +155, Edmonton -175. I'm not clear yet. So if I bet one unit on Edmonton and they win, what is the result? Quote
3putt Posted October 16, 2016 Report Posted October 16, 2016 You net 1 unit or $100. If you lose you are down 175 If you bet the Sabres and win 1 unit or $100 gets youn$155. Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted October 16, 2016 Report Posted October 16, 2016 At $1895. Two units on the flying McDavids. Quote
SwampD Posted October 16, 2016 Report Posted October 16, 2016 Current balance: $2000 Betting one unit on the Sabres. Quote
