Basketball Rules

On straight bets, players lay $11 for every $10 player wishes to win.

For example:

Miami Heat 47
Orlando Magic -8

The Magic are an 8 point favorite. Player would lay $110 to win $100 or $550 to win $500, on either team. The point spread is always given with a negative number on the favorite and a positive number on the underdog. If a player wagers on the favorite, that team must win by more than the amount of the point spread. On all straight bets (except Parlays), if the favorite wins by the exact point spread the wager is a Push or "No Action." The number to the right of the Heat is the total (over/under) number. Players can wager that the combined score of both teams will be either over or under this number. Overtime scores are counted in the score.
