STRAIGHT WAGER LINES
A line is the set of rules used to calculate results and payouts of straight wagers. The four standard line types are listed below.
Point SpreadsMoney Lines TotalsEuropean Prices
Point SpreadsA Point Spread bet is placed on one team to win against another, subject to the Point Spread.
The favorite is indicated by the minus sign "-" and the underdog is indicated by the plus sign "+". To determine the winner for betting purposes, the Point Spread is added to the final score of the team you bet on. Point Spread rules are as follows:
To win your bet, the team you bet on must win by the Point Spread. On certain events you can adjust the point spread by buying points. Games that tie when taking the point spread into consideration are no action which means your original bet amount will be refunded to your account. The odds are $1.10 to win $1.00 (-110) unless otherwise indicated. You cannot place a Point Spread bet on opposing teams. You cannot place a Money Line and a Point Spread bet on the same team. You can place a Point Spread bet on one team and a Money Line bet on the opposing team. You can combine a Point Spread bet with a Totals bet. The Point Spread may change between the time you place your bet and the time the event starts; regardless, your bet is subject to the point spread displayed at the time you placed your bet.For example, you wager on Miami -7 to beat Buffalo +7. The following table shows possible wager results on three final scores.
Actual Final Score Final Score with Point Spread applied Bet Result Miami 21 Buffalo 19 Miami 14 Buffalo 19 Loss Miami 26 Buffalo 19 Miami 19 Buffalo 19 Tie Miami 27 Buffalo 19 Miami 20 Buffalo 19 Win

Money LinesMoney Lines are the simplest form of sports bets. The team you bet on just has to win the game. Your bet is not subject to a point spread. The amount you may win is determined by the money line. Money Line rules are as follows:
Money Lines are displayed with a plus "+" or a minus "-" sign. Money Lines posted with a minus sign "-" require a bet equal to the amount shown after the minus sign to win $100. Money Lines posted with a plus sign "+" require a $100 bet to win the amount shown after the plus sign. To win your bet, the team you bet on must win the game. Tie games are no action, which means your original bet amount will be refunded to your account. You cannot place a Money Line bet on both teams. You cannot place a Money Line bet and a Point Spread bet on the same team. You can place a Money Line bet on one team and a Point Spread bet on the opposing team. You can combine a Money Line with a Totals line, even on the same event. The Money Line may change between the time you place your bet and the event's start time. Payout of your bet is subject to the Money Line that was displayed at the time you placed your bet.For example, you bet on Miami -160 to beat Buffalo +260. You must bet $160 to win $100 if Miami wins the game. Your friend bets on Buffalo. Your friend must bet $100 to win $260 if Buffalo wins. The following table displays the results of four different winning Money Line bets.
Winner Money Line Bet Amount on Winner Payout (including bet amount) Miami -160 $ 80 $ 130 Miami -160 $ 160 $ 260 Buffalo +260 $ 100 $ 360 Buffalo +260 $ 50 $ 180

TotalsTotals are also known as over / under bets. You bet that the actual combined total score of both teams will be over or under the number displayed in your bet. The winning team is irrelevant to this bet. Totals rules are as follows:
If the actual combined total score of both teams is equal to the number displayed in your Totals bet, the bet is no action; this means your original bet amount will be refunded to your account. The odds are $1.10 to win $1.00 (-110) unless otherwise indicated. On certain events you can adjust the odds by buying points. You cannot place Totals bets on opposing teams. You can combine a Money Line or Point Spread bet with a Totals bet. The Total amount may change between the time you place your bet and the time the event starts; regardless, your bet is subject to the Total amount displayed at the time you placed your bet.For example, the current Totals line on the Miami-Buffalo game is Over 35 / Under 35. You bet on the Over and your friend bets on the Under. The following table displays the bet results based on three different game outcomes.
Final Score Combined Score You Your Friend Miami 21 Buffalo 19 40 Win Loss Miami 21 Buffalo 14 35 Tie Tie Miami 21 Buffalo 4 25 Loss Win

European PricesEuropean Prices are similar to Money Lines. We display them in decimal format and use two formulas to calculate payouts.
European Prices above 1.0
(Wager Amount) x (European Price) = Total Payout
European Prices below 1.0
(Wager Amount) x (European Price) + Wager Amount = Total Payout
For example, you bet $100 on Manchester City 2.40 to beat Arsenal 0.60. If Manchester City wins, you win $240. Your friend bets $100 on Arsenal. If Arsenal wins, your friend wins $160. The following table displays the results of four different winning European Price bets.
Winner Bet Amount on Winner European Price Payout (including bet amount) Manchester City $20 2.40 $48 Manchester City $100 2.40 $240 Arsenal $20 0.60 $32 Arsenal $100 0.60 $160

Conversion
If you prefer Money Lines to European Prices or vice versa, you can convert the line to your preferred type.
Use this formula if the Money Line has a minus sign "-".
European Price = (100 / (Money Line * -1)) + 1
Use this formula if the Money Line has a plus sign "+".
European Price = (Money Line / 100)+1
The following table displays conversions of Money Lines to European Prices.
Money Line European Price Payout per $100 Bet (including bet amount) +140 2.40 $ 240 -200 1.50 $ 150 +160 2.60 $ 260
European Prices do not always convert evenly into Money Lines since Money Lines are based on whole numbers.

Buy PointsBuy Points allows you to move the point spread in your favor by paying a surcharge. You can only buy points on football and basketball point spreads and totals.
You can normally buy an extra 1/2 point by laying -120 instead of the standard -110.
Buying points on or off key points or magic numbers is more expensive. Three is usually the key point in football. Although there are no standard key points in basketball, we may set key points on certain games.
After you buy a point and place your bet, check your betting ticket to see the new price on the event.
For example, Miami plays Buffalo. Miami is favored by 4.5 points. You want to adjust the line in your favor by bringing the Miami line down to -2. You can do this for an additional 70 cents. This means you will have to bet $180 to win $100. The following table shows the incremental cost of various point purchases including purchases on and off Key Points.
Miami Point Spread Buy Points Surcharge on this Game Posted Line -4.5 standard -110 -4.5 to -4.0 10¢ or -120 -4.0 to -3.5 10¢ or -130 -3.5 to -3.0 20¢ or -150 -3.0 to -2.5 20¢ or -170 -2.5 to -2.0 10¢ or -180

SPECIAL LINES
The following special lines are available to offer increased flexibility and potential payouts.
Quarter Half-Time Parlays Progressive Parlays Teasers If Bets In Running Futures Propositions
QuarterQuarter lines allow you to bet on the first, second, third and fourth quarter of basketball and football games. Quarter lines are generally posted at the end of the previous quarter. Quarter betting rules are as follows:
Quarter bets are calculated the same as straight bets unless otherwise indicated. Game must go the full quarter for quarter bet to have action. Overtime is not included as part of the fourth quarter. Parlays, Teasers and buying of points are not available on quarter bets.
Half-timeHalf-time lines allow you to bet on the first or second half of basketball and football games. Half-time betting rules are as follows:
Half-time bets are calculated the same as straight bets unless otherwise indicated. Half-time bets must go the full half for action. Overtime is included as part of the second half. Teasers and buying of points are not available on half-time bets.
$100,000 Challenge$100,000 Challenge is an NFL and NCAA football wager on 13 teams from our selection of $100,000 Challenge listed games. You bet $25 and if all teams you select win against the spread, you win the ultimate handicapping prize, $100,000 in cash. A tie or no action on any single event in your selection means the entire wager loses.
Up to two $100,000 cash prizes are available to be won each week. If no one selects 13 teams who win against the spread, no one wins the cash prize. If more than two people select 13 teams who win against the spread, then all winners evenly divide the available cash prizes.

ParlaysParlays are wagers on two or more teams in no particular order where all selections must win for the wager to win. Parlay rules are as follows:
In the event of a tie or no action, the parlay reverts to the next lowest number for payout. A 2-team parlay reverts to straight wager. Parlays that incorporate money lines or European prices are paid out based on the odds of the individual selections. You cannot bet on connected events on the same parlay card. For example, one leg of a parlay is for Sampras to beat Henman in the 4th round of Wimbledon and an additional part of the parlay is for Sampras to win the overall Wimbledon title. The match forms part of the overall tournament and is therefore connected. In the same way, you cannot parlay the over of the first half of a football game with the over of the full game because the two are connected. By placing a Parlay bet you can increase your payout odds. For example, you want to bet on the Canucks to beat the Wings and the Canucks to beat the Avalanche, but the odds are even money. You are pretty sure the Canucks are going to win both events so you want better odds. By parlaying the two games you increase your odds to 13:5. Parlay PayoutsThe following parlay payout table is valid if all selections within the parlay are based on the standard point spread or totals line of -110 (bet $110 to win $100).
Number of Teams Odds 2 13:5 3 6:1 4 10:1 5 20:1 6 40:1 7 75:1 8 150:1 9 300:1 10 700:1 11 1100:1 12 1800:1
To calculate odds for parlays that use money lines other than the standard -110, you should convert the money line to a European price. Then calculate the parlay payout odds by multiplying the European prices of each event together.
For example, let's say you bet on Arsenal 2.5, Manchester 1.7 and Liverpool 2.1. A parlay of all three teams would pay 2.5 x 1.7 x 2.1 = 8.93. If your bet amount is $100 then the payoff would be $100 x 8.93 = $893 (this includes your original stake, so your winnings are $893 - $100 = $793).

Progressive ParlaysA Progressive Parlay is a wager on four to twelve events to win. Even if some of the events in your Progressive Parlay lose, you may still win your wager. Progressive Parlays are accepted only on the Point Spread, not on the Money Line or Totals. Progressive Parlay rules are as follows:
A tie or no action is considered a loss for that particular event. If there is a loss, the parlay reverts to the next lowest number for payout. You cannot bet on connected events on the same parlay card. For example, one leg of a parlay is for Sampras to beat Henman in the 4th round of Wimbledon and an additional part of the parlay is for Sampras to win the overall Wimbledon title. The match forms part of the overall tournament and is therefore connected. In the same way, you cannot parlay the over of the first half of a football game with the over of the full game because the two are connected. Progressive Parlay PayoutsEach type of Progressive Parlay uses different odds to pay out winning wagers.
All TeamsWin 1 TeamLoses 2 TeamsLose 3 TeamsLose 4 Teams 5:1 1:1 -- -- 5 Teams 11:1 2:1 -- -- 6 Teams 20:1 9:2 -- -- 7 Teams 40:1 4:1 1:2 -- 8 Teams 75:1 10:1 2:1 -- 9 Teams 150:1 20:1 5:2 -- 10 Teams 250:1 25:1 3:1 1:1 11 Teams 400:1 60:1 5:1 1:1 12 Teams 900:1 80:1 10:1 3:1
The parlay payout table above is valid if all selections within the Progressive Parlay are based on the standard point spread line of -110 (bet $110 to win $100). A "--" in the table above indicates a losing parlay. Payout odds are subject to change without prior notice.

TeasersA teaser is a parlay in which you take more points or lay fewer points than the line, thus adjusting the point spread in your favor. However your payout odds are reduced when you do this. Teaser rules are as follows:
A teaser can only consist of point spreads and totals; you cannot buy points. The number of teams and the number of teaser points you select determines your payout odds. A tie or no action and a win on a 2-team teaser shall constitute a no action wager. A tie or no action and a loss on a 2-team teaser shall constitute a losing wager. A tie on a 3 or more team teaser shall revert to the next lowest betting bracket. For example a tie on a three team teaser becomes a 2-team teaser.

Other Teasers 3-team 10-point football teaser odds are 10/12 - ties lose. 3-team 7-point basketball teasers odds are 10/12 - ties lose.The two teasers listed above can only be made on the point spread. Money lines and totals cannot be used.
For example, you place a 3-team 6-point football teaser. The chart above lists the odds as 18/10. The unadjusted line is Denver -7, New York -3 and Chicago +15.
The point spreads are adjusted as follows.
Denver -7 plus the adjusted six points = -1 New York -3 plus the adjusted six points = +3Chicago +15 plus the adjusted six points = +21If each and every one of the three teams wins against the adjusted spread, you win $18 for every $10 you bet.

If Bets -- If Win and If ActionAn If Bet allows you to increase your betting power and limit your risk by placing multiple bets on one betting ticket; each individual bet after the first bet will only have action if the previous bet in the sequence is successful. This limits your risk to the dollar amount of the first bet on your betting ticket.
An If Bet is also useful if you want to make more than one bet, but do not have adequate funds in your account to cover the second bet unless the first bet wins. An If Bet will place the second bet immediately upon success of the first bet. If Bet rules are as follows:
One If Bet can contain two to seven individual bets. If Bets must be made prior to the start time of the earliest event. Bets do not have to be made in the order of each event's start time. The first bet's limit is set by the house. Additional bets in the sequence use the bet amount of the first bet. The first bet is always placed unless it is considered a no action event. Two Types of If Bets
If WinYou choose the order of each bet in the series. The first bet is always placed. Each subsequent bet is placed only if the previous bet wins. If any bet in the If Win series loses, ties or is considered no action, then all subsequent bets on the betting ticket are considered no action.
If ActionYou choose the order of each bet in the series. The first bet is always placed. Each subsequent bet is placed only if the previous bet is won, considered no action or is a tie game (also know as a push). If any bet in the If Action series loses, then all subsequent bets on the betting ticket are considered no action.
For example, on October 7th, you place an If Win bet on the Raiders to beat the Dolphins in their October 12th game. Then you select the Patriots to beat the Colts in their October 11th game. The game on October 12th wins and the second part of the If Bet is placed on the Patriots/Colts game with the original bet amount.
This second bet is placed even though this game started prior to the first event and already had a final result of a loss. The first part of your If Win bet is a win but the second part is a loss.
Your If Win bet placed on October 7th is placed prior to the start time of both events so you are able to bet on both games while ensuring that your preferred bet on the Raiders game gets placed even if your second choice, the Patriots, lose.
Normally the only way this would be possible would be to expose yourself to both bets separately. An If Bet puts a restriction on your bet that says if the Raiders lose, do not place a bet on the Patriots/Colts game. This limits your risk to the first bet amount, but provides you with the opportunity to make a second bet with the original stake if your first bet is successful.

In Running
In Running wagering is betting on the final outcome of a game or event including any overtimes while the game is in progress. Odds are posted once a game has begun and continually updated throughout the game. The game must be complete to be considered for action. If a game is cancelled or postponed premature to its originally intended length of play, then ALL bets for the event will be refunded.
The cumulative betting limit for the entire event or game is $1,500. Multiple wagers are allowed though the total amount cannot exceed $1,500.
Baseball In Running games must go a full 8.5 innings to have action. For football and basketball games, In Running odds may be closed during the last 2 minutes of each Quarter. Click on "Update Current Odds" before placing a wager to ensure the most current odds.
Futures and PropositionsFuture bets are based on the outcome of events that happen each year. Propositions are bets based on the outcome of special events. All bets are final. There will be no payouts until the conclusion of the specified season for futures or the conclusion of the specified event for propositions.
If your selection (person, team, etc.) does not participate in the event for any reason, your bet is considered a loss.
The odds we offer may change between the time you place your bet and the time the event starts; regardless, your bet is subject to the odds displayed at the time you placed your bet.
In the event of a dead heat for first place, stakes will be divided by the number of selections dead heating with the divided stake settled at full odds; remaining stake money is lost. The dead heat rule only applies to future bets. If the tie was a betting option, the dead heat rule does not apply.
For example, if there is a 3 way tie for the top scorer in a football game, your winnings are calculated by taking your stake, dividing it by 3, and multiplying that amount by the odds on your betting ticket।
