Default Re: Some Newbie Betting Basics

Thanks for the information guys, Good stuff.

Can you interpret the betting line for NJ on this one? Also, betting the o/u. What are you betting on with the over/under bet in hockey? If the # is 110, I assume the bet is laying 110 to win 100? I guess my lack of understanding is with the 110's, 250's, etc. From what you've said I think I'm understanding it correctly that it all has to do with betting that amount to win $100? Does +/- have anything to do with it other than to show which team is favored?

Example from before:

Ducks +1.5 -240 +150 Ov 4 -110
Devils -1.5 +200 -170 U 4 -110

Also, is there a better place to do sports bets then somewhere else since I'm not in a place where I know anyone that does it?

Maybe if I keep learning enough I can find a way to become a degenerate gambler .... I mean winner!
