Moneyline in sports betting is a simple yet crucial concept for beginners. Unlike point spreads, the moneyline focuses on picking a winning team or player outright.
- Favorite vs. Underdog: Favorites have a negative value (e.g., -150), meaning you must bet $150 to win $100. Underdogs have a positive value (e.g., +200), meaning you win $200 on a $100 bet.
- Easy to Understand: No fuss over point differences; just pick the winner.
- Potential Payouts: Higher risk on underdogs can lead to higher rewards.
Bet smart by analyzing teams and records, increasing your chances of success in moneyline betting.
