I am thinking about placing a bet on a couple of the NFL games today (on Bodog) and I was wondering a few things: If you win the bet no matter what, do you get your wager back PLUS the winnings? Like if I bet on the Patriots to win over the Saints monday night with a +3 point spread it says I am risking to win {content}.71…so if I win this bet do I walk away with .71 or {content}.71?? (**Note the bet is just an example)

HOW DOES IT WORK?

It’s simple … when you first sign up for CentSports, we give you ten cents ({content}.10) play money to bet with. You can use this to bet on almost any major college or professional sporting event (MLB, NBA and NFL games, etc.). Anything you win you keep and can use to place more bets, accumulating money as you go.

You can cash out whenever you want (as soon as you have a balance of over .00 play money) … we’re actually gracious enough to send you a check for your play-money account balance … just straight up, dollar for dollar.

We’ve tried to replicate what you can do at real sports betting sites … i.e., you can make standard line-type bets such as over/under, point-spread, and moneyline bets. In fact, we get our lines straight from Vegas … any bet you make on CentSports could be made with any sports bookie in Vegas for the same odds if you were betting for real money.

Overall, the site makes more from advertising than people cash out … though one of our goals in creating the site was to make sure that as much of the site’s advertising revenue goes back to CentSports user as possible (after all, they’re the ones who earned it by viewing ads in the first place!).

WHAT IF I LOSE ALL MY MONEY?

Then we give you another 10 cents play-money for free so that you can keep on betting. Your balance can never fall below 10 cents … you’ll always have at least something to keep making bets with.

A few questions….

1. How does the book maker make money from setting everything up???? How does he set it up

2. When someone bets on a sports game i think its called straight bets where there is a point spread, does the person pick any point spread they want?? or do they gotta select or what???

3. Can you provide some links for tutorials or free betting sites to get started?

This question relates to sports betting. This is what you do.. you take the underdog with the spread…then, with someone else, in the same, you take the favorite but don’t give a spread. Using this system you cannot lose, only win. For example..

Denver vs Portland…Denver is the underdog, and gets 7 points

You take on Denver with the 7 point spread.
With someone else, you take on Portland, but without giving a spread.

If Denver wins by any amount, you win that bet…
If Portland wins by more than 7, you win that bet…
In both these cases you are winning one and losing the other which cancels your bets.

BUT, IF PORTLAND WINS WITHIN 7 POINTS, YOU WIN BOTH BETS…GIVING YOU , WHILE THE WORST THAT CAN HAPPEN IS TYING.

Does anyone see any flaws in this system which will cause someone to lose money? Also, what do you guy think..
No you are wrong..If Portland wins by less than 7…you win your Portland bet because they won the game (no spread)…and you win your Denver bet because they lost by less than 7 (7 point spread)
So besides having to find someone to bet with, without the spread..this is flawless.
No…Odds are not included..there are no 2-1 or 3-2 or anything like that it is just a straight up bet. See…No flaws.

If I would have sports betted 00 for the Giants to win tonight, how much would I have won? How does the point spread and sports betting work?

no bill it is with another person so there are no odds..therefore u cannot lose, only win.

The typical number in the line is the point spread and I understand that but what is the Over Under and how does it work?

alright. i just made a BetUS account and placed a point spread wager and it says risking 2.50 to win 0. Why did they add the .50 on there? I know its not much, but i was curious

When the point spread says (-2 1/2) for a certain team and it says (click to bet on _______ to cover the point spread) what does it mean?
