You have to use your 360 page for this. Remember, however that using a logo may actually be illegal since it would violate copyright rules.

Comment on Has anyone bet in sports in Nevada? by Michael M

At the Palazzo/Venetian, I just place a "future" bet on upcoming the Superbowl, picking the teams most likely to win at about $20 for my favorite three teams (SF 49er’s – longshot, NE Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers).

When I’m there in Las Vegas during Superbowl weekend, I place various "sucker" bets which are basically even money like; who wins the cointoss, who scores first, what type of scoring (safety, field goal, TD…..), how it’s scored (running, passing, kicking…..) name of player scoring first, and others that the casino sportsbook will conjure up.

What William H said in his answer is how most of the bets work — a commission of one-eleventh on winning bets. Suppose your team is favored by 6 points ("giving 6", shown as -6 on the board, with the underdog shown as +6). You pay $11 and get a ticket. If your team wins by more than 6, you take your ticket back to the window and get back $21 (your original $11 is returned, plus an $11 win, minus a $1 commission so that your net win is only $10). If your team loses, or wins by less than 6, your ticket is worthless and you’re out the $11. If your team wins by precisely 6, you turn in the ticket and get your $11 back. If you bet more than $11, the commission is still one-eleventh of the amount. You might bet $88 in the hope of getting a net win of $80.

The second-most-common form of sports betting is the "money line". You can bet your team to win, straight up, regardless of the point spread. You’ll be laying odds if you bet the favorite, and getting odds if you bet the underdog. An example of a money line might be: Los Angeles -250, New York +200. If you bet LA you’ll bet $250, and if LA wins the game (by any margin), you’ll get back your $250 plus winnings of $100 (no commission). If you bet New York you’ll bet $100, and if New York wins, you’ll get back your $100 plus winnings of $200. You can bet a fraction or multiple of the listed amount, of course. The amount listed is, for simplicity, keyed to a $100 win on the favorite and a $100 loss on the underdog.

If the teams are thought to be evenly matched, you might see a money line in which both have a negative number (both at -110, or one at -105 and one at -120). That means that, whichever team you bet, you have to give the casino odds. You’ll risk losing more than you stand to gain. That’s how the juice is implemented in the money line for a close game.

These two basic forms account for almost all the sports betting. There are some more exotic bet forms, such as parlays and teasers. You should probably stay away from them until you’re more experienced.

If you want a photo/custom picture as your avatar you need to make a yahoo 360 account. http://360.yahoo.com/login.html?.done=http://360.yahoo.com/

The photo needs to be saved on your computer as a jpg file, don’t worry about the size to much yahoo will adapt it. Then go to the following 4 steps. below

1> Go to your 360 page then click "my page” (top of page).

2> Click "edit personal photo" (on the left above photo window).

3> Click “browse” choose the photo from your photos click "save", Set as primary and "save".

4> Go to your “edit my profile” http://answers.yahoo.com/my/my_edit click “use my yahoo 360 picture” scroll down and press "preview", and then "OK" in the next screen.
And your done.

Yahoo engineers are still working on improvements throughout all yahoo sites and some avatars may be slow to show (it could even be a day or so) so try to be patient.

It’s not that the sites don’t allow moneybookers from US players, it’s that moneybookers doesn’t deal with US players. But why use a middle man? Sure, eWallets are good, and there have been some decent ones in the past, but a lot of sites have bank transfers, echecks, etc. You can read up on secure deposit/withdrawal methods for reliable sites at http://dagus-statistics.com/reviews You might be surprised how not dealing with an eWallet might be easier than y ou think! You also might find other methods that you may prefer that offer similar services. Hope this helps.

I definitely have to agree with the 2nd response to this question with the David Ortiz and Jorge Posada one. As a Red Sox fan who DESPISES the Yankees, it’s still absolutely hilarious.

One of my favorite old school ones is when Stuart Scott and I believe it was Kenny Mayne do sportscenter in like, 9 different languages and a costume for each one.

The people who make these commercials are geniuses.
