My first bet!

[Sam]

Put my first bet on tonight (apart from 2 on the Grand National over as many years) ever!

Flames to beat the Oilers

Packers to beat the Giants

Don't ask me what the odds are as I have no idea, but my £5 wins £25! not even sure if that's including the £5 I get back (if that even happens)

What do you think my chances are?

[TheDeuce]

Bet 365 pays 4.79:1 on that parlay so if you're getting 5:1 you're doing good.

(I assumed you took the straight up wins, not the spreads).

That said, I don't follow the NFL closely enough to comment on the Packers game but IIRC TSN1290 had their guy naming the Giants as his lock of the week...

Yeah, the odds on the Flames were pretty bad though... I guess they had them to actually win!

Ah, looks like I've lost a Fiver then. Do you bet at all?

[TheDeuce]

I may or may not occasionally dabble in various gaming opportunities.

On an unrelated matter, the line on tomorrow's Jets - Wild game opened at +157/-173 while BetOnline is offering +170/-180 with the Wild as solid favourites.
