NHL 2013 season betting game

Recommended Posts

DEADLINE: Saturday, January 19th, 3:00 PM EST (right before the first games start)

I came across betting odds for this season at http://ca.sports.yah...56337--nhl.html

I figured.. why not make a game out of it? We'll bet fake money on the odds.

So I made this document:

NHL13_Betting.doc

The document has a clearer layout and all odds are converted to the US +/- style, a +only style, and a probability style.

Download it, open it in MS Word (or the free AbiWord editor), enter your bets, and email it to me at (my forum username) @hotmail.com!

Once all the bets are in and the season has started, I'll upload all the bets to a google document so you can see who bet on what. Until then, bets are private, unless you want to tell people who you bet on below.

At the end of the season, I'll tally up the results, and we'll see who was the best prognosticator.

There are 5 different betting sections, and you're supposed to bet up to $30 total in each section, so up to $150 over all. It's not real money, just bragging rights.

I kept the dollar amounts low so it's easier for me to enter the data.

Whole-dollar bets only, no cents! No bets like $1.50.

Feel free to discuss the odds and your bets below

Public service announcement:

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Don't bet with money you need! I don't know what you need a bird for, though.

(and this is not real betting, so nothing to worry about)
