Golden Shamrock's Proper Odds

[GoshenGipper]

In order to be fair and consistant throughout Golden Shamrock, the following odds MUST be used on all events posted in Golden Shamrock. Any event posted in Golden Shamrock not following the following odds, will be abandoned and the stakes returned to all bettors. Favorites and underdogs should be posted wherever possible... Visit Covers.com if are looking for a place to get up to date favorites and underdogs. If the odds of an event you are looking for you MUST list the site where you found them. You absolutely can not make up your own odds. A few other side notes would be to please bump the over up by half a poin if it's set at an even number because we don't have the ability to push the over/under and still declare a winner in the actual game. The other small not is to please unclick the checkmark from the box that causes the closing time and the payout time to occur at the same time and then please set the payout time for 3 to 3 1/2 hours after the start time. Thanks.

Bets by the spread will be allowed on a trial basis. Use the same website Sports Betting Odds, Statistics and More – Covers.com to determine who the favorite is and by how much.

The entry for the favorite should be: "ND to win by more than 10 points." The odds for any team to beat the spread are 1:1.

For the second option, you can then use the money line odds from above: "ND wins but by 10 points or less."

A third option would be the moneyline odds for the underdog to win: "Syracuse wins."

There cannot be two winning options for a betting item: "Syracuse wins OR ND wins by less than 10 points." There are no odds for such bets.
