I am in Vegas this weekend and put in my bills to win the Super Bowl bet. It was 80-1 before free agency and now 90/1. Frankly it was better than I expected.

So you're saying there's a CHANCE.

90-1 odds. "Better than I expected."

Bills fans have reached a new low.

even 90-1 odds are really really bad.
What are the real odds that the Bills win?

1,000 - 1?
I would take Vegas's side of that bet every time.

where are you seeing that bet?

every book i've seen has the money line at +8000 right now.

It was 7500 before Byrd left, fwiw.

Eh...what's 10 bucks or so? There are untold millions of bets on state lottery Pick 3's daily, with odds of 1 out of a thousand.

Were I in Vegas, I would put down a few bucks just for the fun of it. :dance2:

What was all that "one in a million" talk?

Just curious, what were the odds last year around this time. Anybody know?

Who knows? Every betting house judges their clientele and sets accordingly. Betting is a study of gullibilty.

didn't see quotes on the strip like this. just the odds bet. So i put down five and hope the bills pull a miracle off. or as russ brandon calls it, "getting better"

theyre essentially the same thing.

a money line just indicates your profit should you bet 100$.

so with the bills at a +8000 money line, if you bet 100$, you would win 8000$.

which equates to 80/1 odds, but most vegas books dont post "odds" per se, they post money lines...

so before the byrd deal fell through, they were 75/1 odds, and after they are 80/1 odds.

I just think it's weird you found a casino posting a 9000+ money line on them to win the super bowl, when everyone else is a full thousand dollars below that money line... maybe the owner of the casino you went to is a bills fan and gets excited when people bet on the bills lol. Because that's pretty much the only reason I can think of why a casino would have a team at an extra grand in the middle of march lol.

ahhh, got you. it was the sports book at the Cosmopolitan. and actually, when they printed the ticket it was 100/1 odds as of march 16. i'm pretty sure in 2008 it was 120 to 1 when i put money in. imagine my brief happiness when we started the season 4-0
