Let's say you sit at a BJ table and bet 15 dollars a hand. 15 dollars would be considered 1 unit for you.

It's a measure of what you're gambling.

If i bet 100 a unit and say 1unit then it's 100 bucks. But it's different for every gambler.
capiche?

so when someone bets more units on a bet is that mean they like that bet more?!

like for example

5 units for florida
3 for clemson
1 for usc
1 for notre dame

what does that mean?

Yes the more units someone bets the more "confidence" they have in that play...

...I never post units...I use a refined Voodoo/Chicken handicapping method...all plays are of equal value...

...Welcome and bol...keep asking if you have any issues...most everyone here is a good cat...


ps…Sawyer speaks the word of the Lord…

And the other Zac will conspire with Lem to have you send money to a Nigerian family, just waiting for their $50 million dollar check to clear.
Good luck, and enjoy the Den.
