When wagering on sides, if you are betting the favorite, you will
be laying odds. When betting on the underdog, you will be picking
the odds. The odds for each game are based on who is pitching.
There are four ways of betting baseball:
Action: you do not care if the listed pitchers start the
game.
Listing both pitchers: you want action only if both pitchers
start the game.
Listing your pitcher: you want action only if your pitcher
starts the game.
Listing the opponents' pitcher: you want action only if
the other teams' pitcher starts the game.
Example of how straight bets are done:
|
Dodgers |
Brown |
+130 |
over |
9½ |
-110 |
|
Yankees |
Mussina |
-150 |
under |
9½ |
-110 |
When wagering on the Yankees (favorite), you will be staking $150
to win $100.
When wagering on the Dodgers (underdog), you will be laying $100
to win $130.
If there is a pitching change prior to the start of the game.
All "listed pitchers" wagers will be cancelled and the
money refunded. All "action goes" wagers will be adjusted
to the odds of the new pitcher.
Totals (over/under)
Wagering on the total runs scored on the game:
If you wager on the Dodgers/Yankees game to go OVER the predicted
total, the amount of the runs on the game must be equal or more
than 10 in order to win the wager.
If you wager on the Dodgers/Yankees game to go UNDER the predicted
total, the amount of runs on the game must not exceed 9 in order
to win the wager.
The game must go to 8 1/2 complete innings. In the event of a
pitcher change or an incomplete game (less than 8 1/2 innings)
all money lines wagers are no action. Parlays will revert to the
next level (3 team parlay becomes a 2 team parlay and a two team
parlay will become a straight wager). Also create at the bottom
of the page: "Special Baseball Rules:
·
A game must go over 4 1/2 innings for you to have action on the
money lines.
·
A game must go over 8 1/2 innings for you to have action on the
run-line and the totals.
·
In the case of a postponed or canceled game after 8 1/2 innings
the money line will be no action, but the run-line and the totals
will have action.
·
ALL BASEBALL WAGERS MADE ON THE INTERNET ARE ALWAYS LISTED PITCHERS.
*Note: Totals are always
listed pitchers.
Example of how a Run Line is made:
Dodgers Brown +1½ -155
Yankees Clemens - 1½ +135
The baseball run line is a combination of the point spread and
the money line. The team you wager on must win covering the run
line spread. The amount you lay or stake is determined by the
money line odds next to the run line spread. (Odds are primarily
determined by who's pitching). The same rules that apply to the
totals apply for the run lines.
When wagering on the Yankees run line, the team selected must
win by at least 2 runs.
When wagering on the Dodgers run line, the selected team can lose
the game but not by more than one run.
Note: Run lines are always "listed pitchers".

Future wagers, such as to win the Championship or the Divisional
winners, will be graded as soon as the season or tournament is
over.
Baseball
Parlays
Over the Internet Parlays are limited to a specific pay-out:
The odds for Parlays are:
2 Team = 13/5
3 Team = 6/1
4 Team = 12/1
5 Team = 24/1
6 Team = 44/1
7 Team = 65/1
8 Team = 100/1
Note: These odds are based in teams with -110 Money Lines, any
team with a different Money Line will change the final odds.
Example: If you make a 4 team parlay with favorites in the Money
Line with the following lines:
Orioles -148
Giants -155
Angels -148
Twins -150
If you place a $25 wager on these picks, the payout for this 4
team parlay would be $167 because you are picking favorites in
your bet. If you choose teams with a -110 money line the payout
would be $250.
