Moneyline – This is the simplest form of sports betting. Simply place a wager on who you believe will win a match or game. If you chose the right team or player, you win. If not, you lose. It’s pretty straightforward.
Spread – This type of bet is all about points. You will be guessing the difference of one teams points compared to the others, or the spread of points.
Total – This type of bet is also about points but instead of comparing one team’s points to another’s you will be betting on the total points scored by both teams accumulatively.
Prop bet – Also known as side bets, these are bets placed on a certain event happening during a game. For example, you could bet that a certain player would try a certain play during a certain quarter.
Live Betting or InPlay – These are wagers placed while a game is in play. This allows you to place bets on games that are currently happening that are affected by what is currently happening.
Parlay – These bets are placed on more than one game. You must win all the games in order to win. The payout will be much higher.
