how do you read betting odds?

i am not much of a gambler, in fact i never gamble on sports, so flame on if you want

what does +100 or + 300 mean or when a favored fighter is -300

what does it all mean?

I like the Bodog Fight odds better. I think people are picking the winner of JZ-Aoki as the winner. Right fully so, I'd have Kawajiri up at number three.

It should be exciting. I picked Aoki to win because I'm a huge fan. However, more realistically, I think JZ will decimate everybody.

If a fighter is + 300 that means that is you bet 100$ on him you stand to win 300$
in this case because it's a tournament everyone is a + because winning a tourny is a long shot for everyone.

If the betting line is for example -200 that means you have to bet 200$ to win 100$.


Also I would like to bet a little cash on JZ to win the tourny but the fact that he's fighting Aoki is the first round make's me think twice.

IMHO the smart money is on Kawajiri to win is all but that's just me.

My pick to win the GP is Kawajiri. But clearly JZ is the favorite.
I like JZ, but will see about that the Human Octopus kicks ass

hansen shouldn't even be as high as he is, kawajiri should probably get better odds

Wheres the love for Ishida? I definitley think he'd be a good bet with those odds. Though I'm not betting, I'm really hoping he takes it.

A Question that might sound retarded but is it a one night tourney or is it going to carry on through the next event? I'd imagine it will carry on but I'm not too well informed on this event save for the fight card itself. Thanks.
