Another popular player prop that is quite volatile is the \u201cfirst basket\u201d. Punters stake which player they believe will make the first bucket of the contest.

\n Baseball Odds\n <\/h3>\n \n\n \n Like football and basketball, the main bets for baseball are the spread, moneyline and total. The spread is also called the \u201crun line,\u201d and certain sportsbooks list it as such. It means a certain team is favored by a certain number of runs. \r<\/p>\n\n

What do positive and negative betting odds mean?<\/strong><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/i>\n <\/label>\n \n
\n \n
Negative betting odds represent the favorite. The figure indicates how much you must bet to profit $100. So, -120 means you have to stake $120 to win $100 (plus your initial $120 back for an entire payout of $220).

Why do sports betting odds change?<\/strong><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/i>\n <\/label>\n \n
\n \n
Sports betting odds fluctuate due to a couple of key variables: money and data. As wagers come in for a particular side, sportsbooks modify the odds to encourage betting on the opposing side and secure a balanced outcome for themselves. Furthermore, fresh information, such as injuries or changes in the weather, might affect the expected chance of a team winning or losing, causing operators to adapt appropriately.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

What does 3 to 1 odds mean?<\/strong><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/i>\n <\/label>\n \n
\n \n
This means the team, player or event occurring will pay three times what you bet if it happens. For example, if Scottie Scheffler is 3-1 to win a PGA event and you stake $100, you\u2019ll receive a profit of $300 should he triumph.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

What does a minus 2.5 spread mean?<\/strong><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/i>\n <\/label>\n \n
\n \n
A -2.5 spread means that the sportsbook has assigned a team a 2.5-point edge and has labeled them the favorite. If you bet the -2.5 point spread, the team must win by three or more for you to cash the bet.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
