I think that we should bring it back. Before every sim, I will set lines for a select amount of games and people can bet on them. I will also post some real sports betting lines. We voted on it during the last CBA and people were mostly in favor. Here are the details: nbadsl.proboards.com/thread/6413/gma-polls-expanded-nbadl-sportsbookWhat are everyone's thoughts? I think it would add more activity and discussion to the boards on a day to day basis.

Would be fun to get this going for the playoffs. Get some futures lines up and some playoff matchups

i guess it depends if it is straight bets then it is fine if it is like have to win by 10 or a person make 3 three pointers than yeah that would suck

Any bets before each game would be excessive.

Here's an example...
Day 100
Heat @ Celtics (-15.5) Wizards (-3.5) @ Lakers Clippers (-4.5) @ Hornets Pistons (-2.5) @ Raptors Grizzlies (-5.5) @ Suns
Day 101
Grizzlies @ Bulls (-2.5) Cavs @ Magic (-9.5) Jazz (-1.5) @ 76ers
Those would be some sample betting lines.
So if you bet on the Celtics to beat the Heat, they need to win by 16. If you bet on the Heat, they can lose by as many as 15.
Make sense?

Post by aar on Aug 14, 2015 21:08:25 GMT
They are posted above... Would be even money on all on the spread.

Those were the spreads not the odds

Those were the spreads not the odds Odds on spreads are typically even money. I could do money line odds too, but then it gets a bit complex.

Stick to NBA only and not NFL, NHL, etc. Not fair to foreigners who don't know a thing about football or hockey

Don't think it's fair that people could potentially make, say, $150 cash from getting three games right from three different sports whereas someone who only knows the NBA is limited in what they can make. I know the risk is also losing more money but meh. Think it would be a lot easier and make more sense just to limit it to NBA and NBADSL betting

I personally won't bet a cent on MLB because I barely watch NFL is also mostly one day a week

I'm also open to putting up any lines that people ask for off a sports book if there's a spread.
Not too interested in ones with crazy money lines
Like betting $500 on Nadal to beat some jabroni at -10000 where you win $5
