Scottishbengal Posted August 3, 2005 Report Posted August 3, 2005 I've just trawled through 3 bookmakers sites to get the latest betting for the Superbowl.Listed below is how the bookies rank each of the Bengals and their opponents, plus I've included the odds shown.BENGALS: (joint 21st @ 40/1) (joint 27th @ 66/1) (joint 24th @ 50/1)Cleveland: (31st @ 150/1) (joint 31st @ 100/1) (31st @100/1)Minnesota: (joint 8th @ 20/1) (joint 15th @ 25/1) (joint 14th @ 25/1)Chicago: (30th @ 100/1) (joint 31st @ 100/1) (30th @ 80/1)Houston: (joint 21st @ 40/1) (joint 28th @ 66/1) (joint 25th @ 50/1)Jacksonville: (11th @ 28/1) (joint 18th @ 33/1) (joint 14th @ 25/1)Tennessee: (joint 29th @ 66/1) (joint 22nd @ 50/1) (joint 25th @ 50/1)Pittsburgh: 4th favourite with all (12/1) (8/1) (12/1)Green Bay: (joint 15th @ 33/1) (joint 15th @ 25/1) (joint 17th @ 33/1)Baltimore: (joint 8th @ 20/1) (joint 15th @ 25/1) (joint 10th @ 20/1)Indianapolis: 3rd favourite with all (7/1) (6/1) (7/1)Detroit: (joint 29th @ 66/1) (joint 28th @ 66/1) (joint 29th @ 66/1)Buffalo: (joint 15th @ 33/1) (joint 15th @ 25/1) (joint 14th @ 25/1)Kansas: (joint 15th @ 33/1) (joint 15th @ 25/1) (joint 10th @ 20/1)The odds and rankings of some teams seems to be pretty wild, although there are one or two consistencies, such as Indianapolis Pittsburgh and Cleveland Quote
WhoDeyHomer Posted August 3, 2005 Report Posted August 3, 2005 Which site had the Bengals at 66 - 1 I need to put some $$ on that one. I put 50$ down before every year, might as well get the most for my $$. Quote

ArmyBengal Posted August 3, 2005 Report Posted August 3, 2005 Am I the only one who doesn't understand what the hell this means ?? If so, please 'splain it to my dumbass... WHODEY !!! Quote
Kazkal Posted August 3, 2005 Report Posted August 3, 2005 do they just need to make it to the superbowl or win it?if so gimme a link where I can bet I'd be all over that Quote
DesperateDerelict Posted August 3, 2005 Report Posted August 3, 2005 If so, please 'splain it to my dumbass...ArmyBengal - Some definitions: Odds = Not Evens Joint = either "funny cigarette" or "Tied"basically, there are 3 oddsmakers giving the Bengals odds to win the Superbowl at 40 -1 (tied for 21st best); another giving 66 - 1 odds (tied for 27th), and 50 -1 (tied for 24th).This means if you put $100 down with each casino (book), and the Bengals won the SuperZBowl, you'd win 4000, 6600, and 5000, respectively). Of course, you wouldn't enjoy it, 'cause half your friends here at the 'zone would have died of heart attacks and strokes during the playoffs.Cleveland is tied for 31st best ranking at all 3 books, with odds of 150:1, 100:1, and another 100:1.Got any money? I'll teach you some gamblin' games. Quote
