Many players like to place bets on what the total points scored in a game will be, irrespective of who wins or who loses. This is called Totals, or over/under betting.
| Over | +48.0 | -110 |
| Under | +48.0 | -110 |
In the above example, the oddsmaker has decided that the total points scored in a given game will be forty-eight points. If a bettor thinks there will be more than 48 points scored in the game, he or she bets the Over. If a bettor thinks that the there will be less than 48 points scored in the game, he or she bets the under. If the total is exactly 48 points, then the bet is deemed a push. All bets are voided and the stakes returned in this instance.
The second number, -110, after each team is the price of a winning bet. A winning bettor will win $100 for every $110 bet.
More About Totals Betting
The combined score of both teams for games wagered on, all totals lay $1.10 to win $1.00 unless it is otherwise indicated.
Example
The player lays $220.00 on the OVER in the Miami/Buffalo game. The total for the game is 45. If both teams’ combined score is more than 45 than the player would win $200.00. If the combined score is equal to 45 the game is considered”no action” and the money is returned. If the combined score is less than 45 then the wager is lost.
Placing a Wager
Click on the small box beside either the “Over” or the “Under” and that will be your wager. You can only choose one total wager per bet.
