WSEX live betting question?

JimL04 · Aug 22, 2005

Never used it before, if someone could explain

Cowboys +2.5 buy 65 sell 44 -122

for example:

Does this mean if I want Cowboys +2.5 for the game I would pay $122/$100
then later on if it moved in my favor I could sell it off? Do I even have it partly right?

Any help at all would be appreciated

Everything you said is correct. Fire away if you have any more specifics that need answered.

I've heard about this in game betting but havent ventured into it yet. I am sure i would get pretty addicted once i start. What do you guys think of it??

When you buy shares you only risk the price for each share. If you bought a share of Dallas +2.5 right now (looks like they'll win in the 4th) you pay $95 but at -1900 your return is just $5. Hope this helps.

I have a lot of fun with WSEX interactives. What I use it for mostly is to get off bets. Lets say I bet Seattle before the game starts. I start watching the game and I realize I am on the wrong side. Thats when the interactives come in. I would then buy Dallas shares. Works good for me since I always have the wrong side at the start of the game.
