    Which spot in Vegas has +160 Margo? What is the other side for Cotto? You know the odds vary from property to property in Vegas. I was at the MGM today for Cotto's arrival (Margo didn't even show) and Margo was +230 and Cotto was -270.

    +160 means if you put $100 you get back your initial $100 bet plus $160. -270 means you must put down $270 dollars to win $100. So in other words Cotto is a sizable favorite

    So if you put 1000 on Margo, you only get back 1160?

    put your money at the craps table...much better odds.

    +230..that's still a decent bet.

    +160 at the local stations casino

    i think for every 100 dollars you bet you get 160 in return so

    1000 x 160 = $160,000
    atleast i think thats how it works.

    I think if you put 100 to win 160, then you put 200 you win 320, then 300 to win 480 and so on so it'd be more than 1160 if you put 1000. I'm not a 100% sure but I think that's right
