When a bettor bets on the moneyline, he or she is betting on the result of a game. They are betting on who will win a game, irrespective of the spread.
Green Bay Packers | +130 |
New York Giants | -145 |
In the above example, the minus (-) sign in front of the price means that the New York Giants are the favorites. The -145 means that the bettor will win $100 for every $145 bet. If the Giants win the game, a bettor with a $10 bet gets a return of $16.90 the original $10 stake, and $6.90 profit.
More About Money Line Betting
Ever wondered – How do you place an bet on a sports betting moneyline in an online sportsbook?
The team wagered on just has to win the game. The amount you lay or take for each game may vary. The money line that is read to at the time of your wager is the money line you keep regardless of any line movement.
Example:
The player wagers on Miami -160 at Buffalo +260. If Miami wins then the player would lay $160.00 to win $100.00. If the player bet on Buffalo then the player would lay $100.00 to win $260.00
