In sports betting, the term minus 1.5 refers to a point spread. This is common in team sports like football and basketball. A team given a -1.5 point spread must win by more than 1.5 points for a bet on them to win.
- Point Spread: Adjusts the odds to create a more even betting field.
- Example: If Team A has -1.5 and they win 3-1, the bet wins.
- Risk and Reward: Offers potentially higher rewards but also higher risk.
Understanding point spreads can make your betting experience more strategic and enjoyable.
