At least they spelled Hill-Murray right.

Can someone interpret this? I have no idea what those numbers mean.

It's kinda like this:

Let's use the Edina game.

the 1101 just is the betting #.

Edina -1.5
Roseau +1.5

Means you expect Edina to win by more than 1.5 goals. If you don't think so, then bet on Roseau to lose by 1 or win.

Edina (-150) means you have to bet $150 to win $100.
Roseau (+110) means fot a $100 bet, you win $110

I don't know the Team Spreads $500 ML

I gather that $200 is the largest bet.... So, if you bet $200 on Roseau +1.5 and they win, you would profit $220.

If I remember correctly, this is how you read the odds/lines:

The first number is the line & establishes the favorite. In game 1, Edina is a 1 1/2 goal favorite over Roseau, meaning Edina must win by two or more goals to cover any bets for Edina.

The second number is the wager amount. In this case, if you think Edina is going to win by 2 or more goals, you would need to bet $150.00 to win $100.00. If you think Roseau will cover the spread (lose by 1 or win), then you need to bet $100 to win $110.00.

Not sure about max, but with $200.00 listed, that may mean the max bet or winnings is 2X.

so what if you bet on Roseau to win?

O-Town is that you?

so what if you bet on Roseau to win?[/quote]

there is no Roseau money line, i.e. winner of the game

only Roseau to not lose by 3 goals, I.E. +2.5 Goals.

Like the Olympics they only use the puck line to start. + / - GOALS

If they had a money line, Roseau to be a straight winner it would probably be lay $1 to win $5, maximum bet would remain $200.

i will try my state trny bushel of 20 pucks

edina -1.5 -150 two pucks to win 1.5 potatoes
apple valley +2.5 -120 5 pucks to win 4 potatoes
tonka -4.5 -120 10 pucks to win 8 potatoes
duluth east +1.5 +120 two pucks to win 2.5 potatoes
total played 19 pucks, to win 16

this has to be fake..where are you getting these lines from

that being said,

Im running to the bank to get a loan to take Tonka

It's not Las Vegas, probably offshore. Las Vegas odds are always listed in Pacific coast time, these would be in Pacific Standard Time and they're not, they're East Coast Standard Time.

That means you will have to bet $120 to win $100 and Tonka will have to beat Lakeville by 5... You sure Tonka will win by 5?

OGEE???? You hurt my feelings calling me O-Town Clown..

Lesson Time.

CRM, 5 to 1 odds for a money is not happening even in the Tonka game. Money lines are also not listed as odds. They are listed as +/- cash.
Example for tomorrow night. The Caps are huge favorites over the Canes. Money line is currently.
Caps -285
Canes 245
You must bet $285 to win $100 on the Caps.
A $100 on the Canes pays $245.

As far as the spreads. -4.5 is huge in betting terms. The -1.5 are slight favorites and is what is usually assigned the home team when two teams are interchangeable on neutral ice. Since this is neutral ice they would be considered slight favs in betting terms.

Teams Spread - $500 ML
This means the max you can bet on the spreads in a Money Line Parlay is $500. In this case it could also mean you can only bet $500 in total action for all four games considering the $200 per game max.

the money line for Roseau is +110, bet $100 to win 110, meaning they are an underdog. Roseau is +1.5 so if you bet Roseau @ +1.5, they need win by 2 goals. If you bet Roseau @ +110, they just need to win the game by any margin.

However, Formerie, notice that the +4.5 for Lakeville still carries the same money risk of betting $120 to win $100 as it's counterpart, Tonka.. Does that tell me the Vegas oddsmakers still want me to bet on Tonka?? For example, if Tonka was (-150) and Lakeville (+160), wouldn't that entice me to bet on Lakeville if i was convinced they would cover??

Those are the odds that are trying to convince exactly half the people to bet on each team.

Deacon.. is that accurate??? Doesn't that mean that Roseau gets 1.5 goals added to their score, so they could actually lose 4-3, but when you add the 1.5 goals, they win 4.5-4?? They don't have to win by 2 goals, do they??

In football, if the Vikes are favorited by 6 points over the Bears, and you take the Bears +6, If the Vikes win the game 21-17, I covered with the +6 as the Bears now would win the odds of 23-21.

That is correct. GFD, Do you want to play some poker this weekend? Cheap gambling lessons available.

How about a link to where these came from? Just curious!

I hate the .5's. It takes the push out of play. I love the push.

you can still pick push but its just a little riskier play

It would probably be the riskiest play you can make. But hey, you never know what can happen. Lakeville North could even win.
