    Captain Bull5h1t is at it again.

    You haven't bet anything on these games have you ?. Come on you can tell us, it's not like we already don't know.

    I'll tell you what though, the Rugby League Superleague season kicks off in Feb and runs until the Grand Final, usually the first week in October.

    Lets both start with a theoretical £200 and place a max of 3 bets per round. The one who loses the most over the season gives £250 to the charity of the winners choice.

    We can use a thread on here to ensure total integrity and provide entertainment for the masses.

    What say you.

    WHY?

    I don't bet on American Football individual matches, so i don't know the T&C's, but why was one bet void, and the other LOST?

    .....especially as the bet was a double? :*

    If the bet was a Double, which it clearly says on the betting slip, then (as the name implies), you need 2 things:-

    1. Rams either to win or lose by less than 3; and
    2. Bills either to win or to lose by 1 point

    The next thing to check is exactly when that is to count, ie at end of normal time or to include overtime. I presume it was the latter. Unless expressly stated to the contrary, overtime is normally included in spread betting in American Football.

    Because, after Overtime, the Bills lost 36-42. So you lost on the 2nd part of your Double. You had an extra amount of money from the 1st part of your bet, but it was all lost on the 2nd losing part of the Double.

    If you don't understand this, then you should not be betting.

    All of that is true.

    So-please explain why 1.5 added to 36 is a bigger number than 42.

    And why "won 1" is of any relevance when added to "lost 1". In a Double.

    That betting slip only has a double on it.

    If it was a single, then the bet would only have been void if the Rams had been -3. Not plus 3.

    Captain Bull5h1t rides again. Your slip only shows a double which lost.

    Also you continue to use the wrong expressions. Spread betting involves betting on fluid markets where the buy / sell points constantly change as the event plays out. What you have effectively placed is a handicap bet which is set pre game and remains unaltered during the event.

    So as well as not understanding the expression Parlay you also don't understand the fundamental difference between spread and handicap betting.

    Now go and study because I'll be asking questions later.
