Linda asks…
How does horse betting work? I heard you can make 2k with just 10 cents?
in basketball and football your going to put a good amount of money to make that kind of money!!!!
I am assuming it’s because the odds in horse racing are greater
Chris answers:
That’s true. There is a 10 cent superfecta in horse racing ( not all tracks offer it ) The superfecta is when you pick the exact order of the first 4 finishers. A few years ago at Keeneland a $1 superfecta paid over $300,000.00. The 10 cent super paid 1/10th of that for a little over 30,000.00. I play them all the time. I usually will have anywhere from 2 to 5 dollars worth of combinations on a race ( that’s 20 -50 10 cent bets ) The highest I’ve hit so far was $484.00. Sometimes I’ll play a bunch of longshot combos, it’s not that much of a risk if you lose.
William asks…
How do bookies/bookmakers change odds?
When bookies make their book for example college basketball, and the bookie has all the bets on one team and none on the other and he changes his odds to +4,-4, from +2, -2, wouldn’t he lose all the money in the book if the score was 80-83?
Thanks.
Chris answers:
Yes, if they move the line too much they can get screwed and lose a lot.
Vegas often refers to “Black Sunday”, Pitt-Dallas superbowl, where the line started at Pitt – 3 1/2, and as people bet on Pitt, the line moved up to Pitt – 4 1/2, so people started betting Dallas. Pitt won by 4, Vegas lost a bit there.
That’s why they call it gambling.
