I played this pxp play by play wagering thing for the first time with my wwts account on a couple football games this weekend . Made a little on sunday night but gave most of it back last night. It was pretty fun though. Anyone else check this out?

Vegas, I like your avatar. That bit they did with the Jeff the Drunk handcuffed to that poor woman for a week was the funniest thing I have ever seen. Those coughing fits were hilarious. How is that guy still alive?

Juice was a little high, but I thought that the odds were in my favor for a lot of the bets that I made because I was somewhat selective and didn't bet on each and every play. Those odds appear within seconds of a play ending, they couldn't be that good.

I have to admit I'm a big fan of the instant gratification it provides. Betting on games and futures is fun and all, but it requires a lot waiting. Well, maybe 3 hours isn't really that much waiting but plays take less than a minute to unfold, which is more suited to my personality. Plus, it brings excitment to games when scores are lobsided and the winner has already been determined.

Not much of a soccer fan myself. But it seems to me like soccer is not the ideal sport for this style of betting anyway, unless you just want to bet on the outcome of the game. (American) Football is perfect because every play is followed by a stoppage. It creates way more opportunities to place bets. I guess baseball would be ideal for this too.

The kickoff bets were easy to pick. On MNF I always would pick Over 25.5 yard line to where the Pitt Returner would bring the ball. That chargers kicker sucked.
