BET INTO THE ACTION
You must do your homework and bet selectively.
Winning 60-65% of your sports bets is a realistic target.
Win At Sports Bets
Winning sports bets is all about skill. The challenge is to gather and analyze as much information as you can about a game, weigh the probabilities of each team winning, and subsequently compare your opinion to the oddsmaker's.
While luck may be a deciding factor in the outcome of any single game, and will inevitably go against the bettor on occasion, it will balance out in the long run.
Being a consistent winner in sports betting is not about luck but whether the bettor is prepared to invest the time and effort to become knowledgeable about the sports he bets on, whether he can weigh all the factors in a cool, objective fashion, and whether he adopts a consistent, disciplined, long-term approach to betting.
The bookmaker is simply a middle-man who operates on a small profit margin and, ideally likes to see half the money wagered on one team and half on the other, assuring a profit.
If too much of the money goes on one team, the bookmaker will move the line or point spread to encourage bets on the other team in an effort to balance his book.
The person the bettor is attempting to beat is the oddsmaker, and the oddsmaker's views on each team's chances.
Just by flipping a coin, bettors will be right 50% of the time. At odds of 10/11, only 52.4% of the bettor's bets have to win for him to overcome the bookmaker's profit and break even, so he only needs a very small edge to become a winner.
So bettors must do their homework and bet selectively.
Winning 55% of your bets is definitely achievable, and 60-65% is a realistic target. At those levels, the sports bettor will have an extremely profitable and enjoyable hobby.

Point Spreads
A Point Spread is the number of points added to or subtracted from a team's actual score for betting purposes.
The favorite is indicated by the minus sign "-" and the underdog is indicated by the plus sign "+". To determine the winner for betting purposes, the Point Spread is added to the final score of the team you bet on. Point Spread rules are as follows:
To win a point spread bet, the team the bettor wagered on must win by the given Point Spread.
On certain events you can adjust the point spread by buying points.
Games that tie when taking the point spread into consideration are no action which means the original bet amount will be refunded.
The odds are $1.10 to win $1.00 (-110) unless otherwise indicated.
The bettor cannot place a Point Spread bet on opposing teams.
The bettor cannot place a Money Line and a Point Spread bet on the same team.
The bettor can place a Point Spread bet on one team and a Money Line bet on the opposing team.
The bettor can combine a Point Spread bet with a Totals bet.
The Point Spread may change between the time the bettor places his bet and the time the event starts; regardless, his bet is subject to the point spread displayed at the time he placed his bet.
For example, the bettor wagers on Miami -7 to beat Buffalo +7. The following table shows possible wager results on three final scores.
| Actual Final Score | Final Score with Point Spread applied | Bet Result |
|---|---|---|
| Miami 21 Buffalo 19 | Miami 14 Buffalo 19 | Loss |
| Miami 26 Buffalo 19 | Miami 19 Buffalo 19 | Tie |
| Miami 27 Buffalo 19 | Miami 20 Buffalo 19 | Win |
Money Line Bets
Money Line Bets are the simplest form of sports bets. The team that the bettor wagers on just has to win the game. The bet is not subject to a point spread. The amount he may win is determined by the money line.
Money Line rules are as follows:
Money Lines are displayed with a plus "+" or a minus "-" sign.
Money Lines posted with a minus sign "-" require a bet equal to the amount shown after the minus sign to win $100.
Money Lines posted with a plus sign "+" require a $100 bet to win the amount shown after the plus sign.
To win the bet, the team that the bettor wagered on must win the game.
Tie games are no action.
The bettor cannot place a Money Line bet on both teams.
The bettor cannot place a Money Line bet and a Point Spread bet on the same team.
The bettor can place a Money Line bet on one team and a Point Spread bet on the opposing team.
The bettor can combine a Money Line with a Totals line, even on the same event.
The Money Line may change between the time he places his bet and the event's start time. Payout of the bet is subject to the Money Line that was displayed at the time he placed his bet.
For example, the bettor wagered on Miami (-160) to beat Buffalo (+260). He must bet $160 to win $100 if Miami wins the game. His friend bets on Buffalo. His friend must bet $100 to win $260 if Buffalo wins. The following table displays the results of four different winning Money Line bets.
| Winner | Money Line | Bet Amount on Winner |
Payout (+ bet amount) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Miami | -160 | $80 | $130 |
| Miami | -160 | $160 | $260 |
| Buffalo | +260 | $100 | $360 |
| Buffalo | +260 | $50 | $180 |
Totals Bets
Totals Bets are also known as over / under bets. The bettor wagers that the actual combined total score of both teams will be over or under the number displayed in his bet. The winning team is irrelevant to this bet. Totals rules are as follows:
If the actual combined total score of both teams is equal to the number displayed in his Totals bet, the bet is no action.
The odds are $1.10 to win $1.00 (-110) unless otherwise indicated.
On certain events, the bettor can adjust the odds by buying points.
- The bettor cannot place Totals bets on opposing teams.
- The bettor can combine a Money Line or Point Spread bet with a Totals bet.
- The Total amount may change between the time he places his bet and the time the event starts; regardless, his bet is subject to the Total amount displayed at the time he placed his bet.
For example, the current Totals line on the Miami-Buffalo game is Over 35 / Under 35. The bettor wagers on the Over and his friend bets on the Under. The following table displays the bet results based on three different game outcomes.
| Final Score | Combined Score | Bettor | His Friend |
|---|---|---|---|
| Miami 21 Buffalo 19 | 40 | WIN | LOSS |
| Miami 21 Buffalo 14 | 35 | TIE | TIE |
| Miami 21 Buffalo 4 | 25 | LOSS | WIN |
