We don't know who our opponent is yet, but now is the time for everyone to start rebuilding your vCash to at least have something for next week.

Bet your 25 you get on the first thing you can. Double up any win on the next thing and make sure you have everything bet every night on something tomorrow so you get your free 25 as well. It's possible to make 500 back in a few days easily if you get lucky on a couple of bets.

I put my 25 today on the under for the SF/Carolina game. Don't think they top 41.5

Let's see how much Vcash we can get by the next game.

BTW, you can get more than 25 more than once a day. I've noticed when you bet the farm on an event that when it closes taking new bets you sometimes get a new 25 right there. Bet on an early game and when it closes bet on the next thing coming. I just bet on the afternoon game as well so I already have 50 in action when I was broke last night.

I am not one to root for injuries. But after only a few minutes these teams are beating each other up which you have to love

Well it wouldn't hurt our chances if they come in dinged up. That's for sure, but I don't root for injuries in general. If we are to take SF out then let's do it with them at full strength so we leave no doubt who earned it.

Get your bets in quick for the Denver game.

I'm up to 75 vCash on that game already just from today. Doesn't take long to make cash if you quickly bet everything after a win.

Won the second bet of the day and finished off at 150 vCash. Doesn't take long to make something back if you bet on everything you can and get a couple of lucky breaks. Do what you can to get something more than 25 to bet on the game next week. Probably be forced to bet on Hockey or basketball, but you can't do any worse than go back to the 25 they give you every day right?

I'll probably bet on some NBA games to try to get my vcash up this week then go all in again for the Hawks.

I went on the moneyline for the Chargers with my 25 vCash and got burned.

Yeah, you gotta take risks to get it back up and you take the biggest ones when you are under 200 as it doesn't take anything to get back there. Money line dogs are always great profit if they hit.

I went with the under on the morning game and took the chargers +9.5 or whatever it was at and hit both. Bam 150 from zero this morning.

I clearly have no idea what I'm doing because I bet the Seahawks (-8.5) and lost 500 on it. I'm assuming that the Seahawks would have had to win by 9 or more for me to win anything.

When Lynch scored, I thought "great we are going to win and cover the spread." Then the ball squirted through Thomas and Maxwell's hands and a few plays later, they scored and I lost all my vCash, but we won the game so it really didn't matter.

Nope. I've done office pools, but that's about it.

You can also bet the moneyline. On that one you're just betting on the outcome of the game, no point spread is involved. If you bet on the favorite you don't stand to win much though but it's a safer bet if you feel it's going to be close.

That's what I should have done. I just couldn't remember which one was which. That's how little gambling I do.

Click on vBookie on your bar at the top of the page. It shows you a list of all available games to bet on. Click the link and it shows you what kinds of bets are available for that game.

The main bets normally always available are against the spread. If you put money on a team and it shows (-9) then you are betting that this team will win by 9 or more points. If they win by 7 you still lose your money. This kind of bet is always 1-1 meaning if you bet 100 you win 100 on a win.

Some games offer a moneyline bet. You are only betting who will win or lose, but the amount you win is based on who is the favorite and by how much. The number after it says what the odds are. You can normally make a lot more money betting on underdogs to win vs any spread bet, but of course there is more risk. Betting on the favorite on the moneyline will always give you less than 1-1.

Then of course there is the over/under on some games. Bet the combined score of both teams will be more or less than that number and win 1-1.

The only other way to earn vCash is to join in the few pick'em or other contests they offer vCash prizes for. There aren't any open at this time. Betting is the only way to earn it.

If you blow all of your vCash you get 25 the next day. If you bet that on anything available you sometimes get another 25 that same day after the event you bet on is closed for new bets. This means you can get a free 25 more than once in the same day as long as your active bets leave you with zero on hand.

So when you are broke there is zero risk just betting on anything and doubling down at least once or twice. that is, bet your 25 and if you win bet 50 on anything else and then your 100 on whatever. At that point you might want to be more conservative and make only more confident bets to get you back up to 500 or more.

Just got an email with my birthday gift attached. I will be there Sunday to rustle Kraep's jimmies!

Cannot wait!

And you can all rest easy. This is the 3rd straight SF game I've attended at the Clink and I think you all know how the last 2 turned out :yahoo:
