Straight Wagers - Totals Over/Under
Money Line Wagering - Parlays - Teasers

Money Line Wagering

With this type of wager you wager which team is going to win. Disregarding the point spread.

Example:

Orlando Magic -280
Houston Rockets +240

  • If you wager on Orlando -280 you lay $280 to win $100. 
  • If you wager on Houston +240 you lay $100 to win $240.

Parlays

This play is a selection of teams in no particular order, in one play. All teams must win by the point spread margin. The more amount of teams, the greater the payoff.

Example:

2 team parlay for $100
Portland Trail Blazers +4
San Antonio Spurs -10

The payout in a 2 team parlay is 13/5 this means you are risking $100 to win $260. In case of a tie or no action the parlay will revert to the lower level payoff, except in a 2 team parlay where a tie reverts to a straight bet.

2 teams pays 5/13
3 teams pays 6/1
4 teams pays 10/1
5 teams pays 21/1
6 teams pays 40/1
7 teams pays 75/1
8 teams pays 150/1

Teasers

This is a wager in which 2 to 7 teams are selected together in one wager with an adjusted point spread. In a teaser you can add points to the sides or mix both sides and totals adding or subtracting to the totals. If one selection loses the teaser is considered a loss.

Example:
2 team teaser 5 pts for $100
Lakers +4+5 pts = the teased line is now +9
Knicks -3+5 pts = the teased line is now +2

The payout in a 2 team teaser for 5 pts is 13/10 In this case you will lay $130 to win $100.
