Super Bowl Coin Toss

[Gatorbait37]

I have a 50,000,000 unit lock of the century selection on this years coin toss. If it doesn't win you will get my next 20 coin toss selections absolutely free.

I have never bet the coin toss, but this year I am taking heads for a 5* play. I just have a gut feeling that heads will hit. We will see what happens. Good luck all.

Maybe there are factors that allows one to handicap the coin toss

Why on Earth would anybody lay -110 (sometimes -115) on a coin flip is beyond me.
First off you have to have rocks in your head to lay 10 or 15 cents on a 50/50 proposition, second off, you can't handicap a coin toss.
It's a guess for the love of God, a guess!
I guess there are people that have a desperate need for action.

For example: what type of coin are they using (is this information available). Some coins are engraved differantly resulting in the change of the "aerodynamics" of the coin itself.

The wind factor (if there is a brisk wind) could this affect the toss-up and the verticle drop? The obverse side (tails) is heavier then the (heads) side; more engraved art work resulting in "tails" showing up more than "heads" albiet very very slight.

I guess one could attempt to handicap the "coin toss" although that is probably as ridiculous as the "coin-toss" proposition bet in the first place.

I put my mortgage, my family, and my right arm on tails.

I'm sure this is B.S. but a couple of years ago I read someone's write up from Sportsmemo and they said go with tails because of the type of coin being used there was a better chance of it landing on tails. I remember thinking I can't believe people actually bet on this prop - so of course I bet tails the past two years and won. I think I'll lay off this year but if I have a weak moment it's tails for me.

Mr. mark you are correct. either way you go, you have even odds.

Dumb bet because line is now -115 either way, books can't lose as they will make 15% in the end.

The best prop bet is for the Cards to be the ball first on offense. :toast:
