WAGER RULES
Straight
Straight bets are made when you choose a team and the point spread. The cost of the bet is 11/10 or $110 to win $100.
Example:
Toronto Raptors +6
Chicago Bulls -6
If the straight bet is on the Bulls -6 then the Bulls must win by more than 6 points for the bet to win.
If the straight bet is on the Raptors +6 then the Raptors cannot lose by more than 5 points for the bet to win.
If the game lands on 6 pts. then your bet is a “push” and will result in “no action”. i.e.: Final Score: Rap 90 and Bulls 96
Parlay
Two or more teams or totals can be combined to make one wager. All teams must win by the point spread margin. Circled games cannot be parlayed. Proposition plays, and future bets cannot be parlayed.
You may estimate Parlay Payoffs by following steps (example provided):
Let’s say you play the Pirates +150 and the Pirate game over 8 -120 in a two team parlay and you bet $100. Use the following steps to determine your winnings or should we say potential winnings.
Calculate Parlay Factor for each piece: if the price of the piece is positive – simply add one to get factor, if the price of the piece is negative v calculate reciprocal, multiply by -1, and then add one.
1.50 + 1 = 2.50
-1.20 (take reciprocal or divide one by the negative price) 1/1.20 = 0.83 + 1 = 1.83
Multiply all factors – then multiply this factor times the bet amount – the result is the payoff (including your bet)
2.50 x 1.83 = 4.57 (now multiply this times your bet) x 100 = 457
$457 is your total return if both pieces win (including your bet amount)
Subtract your bet from the figure calculated in 2 – Result is your winnings.
457 – 100 = 357 Winnings
This will also work for three, four, five,… team parlays, simply follow the steps. Note: This is will provide you with a rough estimate; actual winnings may differ due to rounding.
(!) All parlays are based on a true odds format except for parlay cards.

Teaser
Betting on Football | Football Teaser Wager
This is a wager in which 2 to 7 teams are selected together in one wager with an adjusted point spread. In a teaser you can add points to the sides or mix both sides and totals adding or subtracting to the totals. If one selection loses the teaser is considered a loss.
Example:
2 team teaser 7pts for $100
Green Bay -7+7 pts = the teased line is now “pick”
Denver Broncos +7+7 pts = the teased line is now +14
The payout in a 2 team teaser for 7 pts. is 10/13 In this case you will lay $130 to win $100.
Betting on Football | Football Pleaser Wager
This is a wager in which 2 to 6 teams are selected together in one wager with an adjusted 6 point spread in favor of the house. In a pleaser you subtract points from the sides (no totals allowed). If one selection loses the teaser is considered a loss.
Example:
2 team pleaser 6pts for $100
Green Bay -7-6 pts = the teased line is now -13
Denver Broncos +7-6 pts = the teased line is now +1
The payout in a 2 team pleaser is 6 to 1. In this case you would lay $100 to win $600.

If Bets
If bets help customers who want to have action on more than one game but based on the result of the 1st wager. There are 2 types of if bets, “If Win Only” and “If Win/Ties or cancelled.
If Win Only example:
Dallas Cowboys -5 $110 to win $100
If Win Only
Carolina Panthers +4 $110 to win $100
If the Cowboys lose, the wager stops there and is scored a loser -$110.
If the Cowboys win +$100 the wager continues to the Panthers wager.
If the Panthers win, the wager is a $200 winner
If the Panthers lose the wager is a $10 loss.
If the Cowboys win by exactly 5, then there will be no action on the Carolina Panthers and the 110 will go back to your account.
If Win/Ties or cancelled example:
Dallas Cowboys -5 $110 to win $100
If Win/Ties or cancelled
Carolina Panthers +4 $110 to win $100
In this case, customers will have action on the second part of the wager if Dallas wins by 5 or more points.
*The risk amount of the the second part of the if wager, may not exceed the risk amount of the first part.
Action Points
Action Points are available for football and basketball. Action Points are for the bettor who not only can predict which team will win the game, but by how many points. Your action point wager is capped from 1 point to a maximum of 10 points, and the wager you risk cannot exceed your available balance. On this type of wager, you risk $110 for every $100 wagered.
Example
Atlanta Hawks 191
Houston Rockets -5
Suppose you wager $100 a point on the Houston Rockets and ask for a cap of 10 points. Houston must win by at least 5 points, and for every point over the point spread of 5 that they win by, you win $100. You have the chance of winning between $100 and $1,000.
If Houston wins by 9 points, your net winnings would be $400. On the other hand, if Houston fails to cover the point spread, you risk $110 for every point that they fall short of the 5-point spread. You can also use totals either over or under, or the underdog in the game, getting 5 points.
Action points can only be placed through our call center.
Money Line
Football and Basketball betting you are given the option to bet a point spread or a moneyline bet. With money lines you wager which team is going to win. Disregarding the point spread.
Example
Orlando Magic -280
Houston Rockets +240
If you wager on Orlando -280 you lay $280 to win $100.
If you wager on Houston +240 you lay $100 to win $240.
The line values are determined based on the point spread. When betting money lines you are betting on a team to win the game outright.
Open Wagers
Open wagers allow the customer to play teasers or parlays making one selection at different times or even different days.
Example: 3 Team Parlay $100 to win $600
Cowboys -8
Dolphins -14
OPEN*
Any open wager left unfilled/pending for more than 90 days will be cancelled.
No open spots on 10 pt teasers. No open spots on 4 team or more parlays.
The minimum amount for a bet placed online with 1 or 2 open spots is $50 and customer must call to fill the open spots.
Round Robins
Round Robin is a wager in which three to ten teams or totals are combined into a single play and all possible combinations of Parlays chosen by the customer. Any pick that can be parlayed may be placed in a Round Robin.
Because the Round Robins are turned into Parlays, the same rules apply as in a regular Parlay:
If one of the teams loses, all parlay combinations with that team are a loss.
If one team pushes, then all combinations with that team would turn into the lower Parlay or Straight bets risking the same amount of the Parlay.
Open spots are not allowed in Round Robins.
Points may be bought on as many picks as the customer wants in a Round Robin, as long as the Round Robin is broken into only 2 or 3 team combinations.
Also, whatever the player risks on the Round Robin must be applied to each of the 2 Parlay combinations
Example:
New York Knicks +7 -110
Houston Rockets +8 -110 – A $50 RR, in combinations of 3 by 2’s
Cleveland/Denver Over 188 -110
| 1st Parlay | 2nd Parlay | 3rd Parlay |
|---|---|---|
| Knicks +7 | Knicks +7 | Houston +8 |
| Houston +8 | Cleveland / Denver Over 188 | Cleveland / Denver Over 188 |
| Risk $50 / Win $130 | Risk $50 / Win $130 | Risk $50 / Win $130 |
