I'm no expert, my man, but sometimes the odds on other sports (baseball especially) look slightly different and the vig is somewhat misleading (imo). That being said, there's always odds on the game (who will be the winner of the game) so, even if it isn't obvious, i.e., Patriots -3 1/2 vs Bears, there's always a favorite unless the spread is even...
It gets confusing even after that because (let's just say Bears vs 49ers but no favorite) it could be -115 for 49ers to win and -105 for Bears to win. The vig kinda just ****s things up and usually helps Sports Books / Bookies beat the average Joes (which is majority of bettors).
I'm already getting a headache just going over it lol
Im know expert either, if I was I would be rich already brother.
Here is the thing!!! Every game has a moneyline, point spread and vig.
You only pay vig on handicapped bets. If you play the Moneyline their is no vig...
Lol
Hey when are you going to put up a future bets thread (odds on winning the SB and early lines), there's a couple of links above unless you have other preferred sites.
Oh btw, when the games kick off, be sure to post up some of your opinions on certain games and what you'll be betting... I always like learning (knowledge has no limits)
