Hi and welcome another episode from the sports betting tips video series by SportsTrade. I’m Allie, and I’m the spokesperson for this video series. In today video, we will look at sports betting tips with money line. In other words, what does a money line in sports betting mean, and how is it used as a tip to winning bets?
According to the sporting charts, the money line is described as a type of betting line in which the amount a player must wager in order to win $100 is laid out or better put, the amount the player wins on a wager of $100. Now, let’s take a look at money line sports bets.
In the money line sports betting, there is no point spread or handicap. So how do you win it, you asked? Basically, to win the money line bet, the tip is that the team wagered on must win the game. While payoffs are based on true odds rather than fixed types, the amount you lay or take differs from game to game. The truth is, everyone makes money line bets with even realizing it. Even non-gamblers do. But in the real sense of it, betting the money line for a game is arguably the most simple way to wager on sports.
You just choose a player or team to win. If you choose the winning side, the sportsbook will simply have to pay the amount due.
Moreover, the favorite team or player in this system is the team that is expected to win. This side of the bet is listed with a minus (-) sign, and the underdog team or player on the money line is the team that is expected to lose, denoted with the plus (+) sign. These signs denote how either side of the wager will pay; the minus will pay less than the original wager, and the plus side will pay more than the original wager.
The money line wager is used in low scoring sports like baseball, soccer, and hockey. We hope you’ll get some takeaways from this video. Discover more about other sports betting tips from other videos in the series.
Thanks for watching and good luck!
We're concerned about problem gambling. For most people, gambling is entertainment - a fun activity that can be enjoyed without harmful effect. But for some, it's not just a game - it's a serious problem that continues even after the fun has gone.
Compulsive gambling is not easily detected. The person with a gambling problem will often go to great lengths to cover up the problem and will appear to look all right, regardless of the consequences of their gambling.
Warning Signs. Some of the indicators that a person may be suffering from a gambling problem include:
Losing time from work or family due to gambling.
Repeated failed attempts to stop or control gambling.
Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts.
Gambling to escape worry or trouble.
Neglecting the care of one's self or family in order to gamble.
Lying about the amount of time and money spent on gambling.
Gambling more money in an attempt to win back losses.
Selling or pawning personal possessions to get money to gamble.
Feelings of hopelessness, depression, or suicide as a result of gambling.
