Betting basics

What is a point spread?

A point spread adjusts the final score to settle a bet. A favorite must win by more than the listed spread. An underdog can win outright or lose by fewer points than the spread. If the adjusted scores tie, the result is a push and the sportsbook returns the stake.

What is a moneyline bet?

A moneyline bet is a bet on who will win. It does not adjust the final score. Negative American odds show the amount you must risk to win $100. Positive odds show the profit on a $100 stake. The price you accept determines the payout if your selection wins.

What is an over/under?

An over/under is a bet on whether a statistic will finish above or below a listed number. A game total uses the combined score of both teams. A player total can use a statistic such as passing yards. A result exactly on a whole-number total is a push.

What are juice and vig?

Juice and vig are names for the sportsbook margin in a price. For example, two sides at -110 imply probabilities that add to more than 100 percent. The excess represents the margin. It is not a separate fee after the bet. Compare the same market across sportsbooks before you choose a price.

What is the Kelly criterion?

The Kelly criterion calculates a stake from an estimated probability and the offered odds. Its result depends on the accuracy of that estimate. A wrong estimate can suggest a stake that is too large. Some bettors use a fraction of the result to reduce the size of each stake.

How do parlay odds work in reality?

A parlay combines several selections into one bet. Each selection is a leg, and each leg must win under the sportsbook rules. The combined price can produce a larger payout, with a lower chance of success. Sportsbooks can restrict or reprice related legs. Check the rules for pushes and voided legs.

What is line shopping?

Line shopping means you compare the same market at several sportsbooks. Each sportsbook can offer a different spread, total, or price for the same event. Compare the number and the payout before you choose a price. Check the market definitions and settlement rules too, since similar labels can cover different bets.

What is the closing line?

The closing line is the last available price or number before a sportsbook closes a market. Different sportsbooks can close at different numbers or times. The final price reflects the information and bets received by that point. It gives you a comparison point, but it does not predict a certain result.

What is a push?

A push occurs when a result lands exactly on the listed number. Neither side wins that bet. For example, a favorite that wins by three points at a spread of -3 produces a push. A sportsbook normally returns the stake on a straight bet. Check its rules for parlays and other markets.

What are key numbers in sports betting?

Key numbers are common margins of victory. In NFL games, three and seven are examples because field goals and touchdowns shape the final score. A spread that crosses one of these numbers can change which results win a bet. The effect depends on the sport, the market, and the price.
