Okay Puddin, got another betting question here.  On this last list you just posted on the odds.  Why does everyone have a 1 after their name except for BJ and Tyler.  Why do they have a 5?  Does that mean if you bet $5 you will $6??

6/5 is a very bad bet , this means the oddmakers and people betting think that BJ & Tyler win  ;D

If the odds are 2 to 1 then you would get $200 back if you bet $100 (A profit of $100)

If the odds are 6 to 5 then you would get $600 back if you bet $500 or only $120 back if you bet $100 (A profit of only $20)

Those are all pretty short odds for a 5 team race, with the longest odds only being about 3-1.   The house will defintely make some money if many people bet on this.

BoDog

sportsbook.com   << you have to register , doesn't matter though both places have no bets open for TAR as well as S11  ;D , I don't know if BoDog was only taking bets up to a certain date or whatever , they never had anything about a time frame ?
