Title: If you could bet money on all the Pro/National & Amateur Shows
Post by: MattT on March 04, 2009, 12:04:07 AM: Would you?. I mean we're always guessing here in getbig and other message boards. Would you put $10 down for Toney Freeman to win the ASC and your payout was $200 if he won?. Iv never bet on sports before so i don't know how the payouts work, or how they work the odds etc, but you get the idea. It would definitely make it more interesting, and possibly draw more people to the sport if they can make some money off it..

That would be odds of 19/1 (19*$10 plus your original bet back)...

Also I am not sure how many bookmakers would take money on a subjective sport. I'm pretty sure you can't bet on sports like ice skating or gymnastics in the UK (no idea about USA).

Oh, bodybuilding isn't a sport anyway...
