Can ya explain what your bet actually means.. I would like to understand this terminology with out having to google. Thx

if denver wins by more than 2 he wins his bet (-2). he is losing 10% to the house (-110) +110 would be gaining 10%.... thats kinda confusing but a 1 dollar bet at -110 he would win 1.90 total and +110 he would win 2.10 total

just to clarify cause when i first started sports betting it confused me, a $1 bet at -110 would win .90 profit and +110 would win him 1.10 profit for every dollar bet.

That's almost right but not quite. -110 mean if you were to bet $1.10, and you won the bet, you'd get $2.10 back when you cashed in for a profit of $1.00. That's a ratio of 10 to 11, therefore if you bet $1.00, your profit would be $1 x 10/11 = .9090909 and I'm not sure if the sports book would round you up to 91 cents or not, but I think they do.
