Anyway, its kinda like a parlay but its not, if you win you get 4-1. If you split you pay double juice, so I would pay 240... If you take the loss in both you pay 440.... So basicley its the same thing as betting games straight up, if I bet 2 games straight up for 200 each and lose im paying 440. But the benefit is is you win, you get 4-1... The tighter gambler wont like the reverse because the downfall is if you split. If I bet 2 straight up games 200 each and split I would only owe 20 "the juice" in a reverse I would owe 240.

I see South Carolina is getting shutout in 4th quarter, 13-0.

Good reverse PG!

Garcia was confused. When he signed up for Pop Warner he thought it was soccer.

I dont bet CFB, but if I decide to start I think I have a pretty good angle to go with.

That angle has been serving me pretty well in the Bowl Pick'em contest
