In Vegas for the weekend, looking to gamble...
 
So I'm making the trip out to Vegas Thursday and catching the red eye back Sunday. I'm going to place a couple bets in the sports book, just for fun, among these are:
Bucs -whatever
Georgia/Florida under whatever

Anyone got suggestions for exciting bets I could play?

I would say you're not starting off too well. 'whatever' generally shouldn't be a # you think the game will be under..

I think I saw it at 42 and falling on one of the online books, which is pretty high, considering UGA's top QB is out, UF's QB is injured, has a cheesecloth o-line, and the offense isn't on track yet, and both teams have pretty stout defenses. 17-10 would be a lot of scoring, I think.

Stardust is offering Bucs -11.5, which is kinda high, especially since Tampa rarely wins out west. But I'm taking it anyway.

My point is, winning would be nice, but I'm betting to bet on my teams, not exclusively to profit. My betting on my favorite teams, despite the fact they may or may not be smart bets, demonstrates this. I'd like to make a bet or two that'll be fun to follow. Any suggestions?

Tease FL to +1 and the under. Tease the Bucs to -5 and Cinci to -2.5. Just a suggestion dont bet the farm on em. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Now this is what I'm talking about! I can bet these for $10 at most books, right? Anyway, this sounds like a good use of a few redbirds. Thanks!
