Betting Options
At BetUS, bettors have the option to view the odds in the following formats: fractional, decimal or American. In sports betting, there are multiple types of bets that can be made. The straight bet, otherwise referred to as a spread bet (point spread), is by far the most common. This is where a wager is placed on a team to win solely based on the point spread. The spread is represented in figures that have a minus and a plus sign. For example, the spread may be -7 and +7 for an American football game. This would indicate that the team marked as -7 is the favorite by 7 points. The team that is +7 is the underdog.
The moneyline is similar to the point spread. It also uses minus and plus but has nothing to do with how many points each team gives or receives. The odds are calculated in the payout versus the spread. For example, the moneyline could be -125 and +125. The team that has the minus is the favorite. The basis of the moneyline is $100. To bet on the -125 moneyline, you would have to bet $125 to win $100. For the underdog at +125, you bet $100 and win $125. The moneyline is a straight win or lose bet.
Parlay bets are combination bets. In a parlay, a bettor can choose multiple teams or selections. The key element with a parlay is that all of your selections must win for you to win the parlay. However, the odds increase greatly as you have more selections. In other words, a 5-way parlay has much higher payout odds than a 2-way parlay.
Teasers and pleasers are bets where the spread is altered. A teaser is where the bettor receives points and the pleaser is where they give away points. Other common betting options are over/under, reverse and If bets. The over/under refers to the total combined score. This type of wager comes with a moneyline. “If” bets begin by betting on a certain team. If you win your wager, the same wager will be put on a different team in a different event. A reverse is an If bet that doesn’t necessarily have to be a win. It could be a win, tie or a cancel. In other words, you have team A and team B selected for two different games. You can’t lose both because if one wins, ties or cancels, you are then put down for the wager on the other. However, if the first event to conclude loses, you will not be wagered for the other event.
