The black ones were hard to read. Almost like a different language.

Are those the true odds when you bet 5 games?

My payoff should I win is 18-1. SUCKER

Most LV joints pay 20/1 to 22/1 on five-teamers, and pushes/ties reduce to the next amount of teams played, not lose like local cards of which the makers discard the easiest games, aim for games of 3 and 7 pt spreads, set bogus spreads on key numbers by moving-on-air, and/or also most local teams/conferences discarded as to keep them from getting lopsided in action.

Some Vegas groups even have ties win action, like Michael Gaughan owned hotels/sportsbooks(formerly owned Barbary Coast and the Coast properties..now has South Point)

Years back, I played one through a guy at work that knew a guy. Being young and dumb, I decided to pick 10 games because you still won money on 9 out of 10. Hit the first nine games - last game I took the over in a San Fran-KC game. Hit it by a point when Dante Hall ran a punt back for a TD with 2 minutes left in the game. Turned $10 into $1500 and never heard from that guy again after he paid up.

We played those back in undergrad. My New Orleans bookie who lived in the dorm had them. A buddy of mine on the golf team ended up having to pawn his golf clubs to pay the dude on some other bets.

One of the football players who lived in the dorms, who went on to play in the NFL, bought a case of Mickeys and a case of Colt 45 when he hit a 5 team parlay.
