Hi all:

I will be helping out with any questions on this. To answer the two inquires above, the goal is to finish with the most units based on the prop bets. 

There is also no minimum for the props you can play. If you want to play $1000 on one prop, that is absolutely permissible. 

If you were to play a prop for $1000 with juice of -138, you should denote like below:

Prop X for 1000/724. 

This goes for everyone playing the props. Using the decimal system is easier when it is a plus payment but when it is a negative win, please use the above for grading purposes. 

Thanks and good luck all! 

Are we to join Bet 365 to play or just post our prop plays in this thread? Also using the decimal system would a +200 prop be written as First score is a field goal 2.00? Just an example again thanks for all you do.

@gotime

 You do not have to join Bet365 but are welcome to. You can access their props either way and use those odds for your plays. 

It is easiest if you denote your plays like this:

Prop X 100/215 or 100/2.15

Prop Y 900/750

Prop 1000 units multi touchdown scores Leonard Fournette 3 or more 1000 units = 1000/33,000 . Equals + 33,000 units won.

Tie breaker # 1 Game winner Tampa Bay

Tie breaker #2 Total score 72. 

My prior post #13 can be erased as I did not fully explain my play. again thanks. I really am horrible with a computer!

@asmth14

Good question, but just like any book once you’ve entered your picks they cannot be changed.

Cheers!
