BASEBALL RULES
Money Line
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.
A. Dodgers Valdez +130
ov 9½ -110
B. Expos Hermanson -150 un 9½ -110
When wagering on the
Expos (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/Expos game to go OVER the predicted total, the
amount of the runs on the game must be more than 10
in order to win the wager.
If you wager on the
Dodgers/Expos 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.
Run
Line Wagering
A. Dodgers Valdez +1½
-155
B. Expos Hermanson -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
Expos 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 Wagering
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
The odds for Parlays are:
2 Team = 13/5
3 Team = 6/1
4 Team = 10/1
5 Team = 20/1
6 Team = 35/1
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,
Mets -148
Cardinals -155
Braves -148
Rangers -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.
5 Inning Game
When wagering on 5 inning games both listed pitchers
must start. In case of a pitching change all wagers
will be no action.
If both teams are tied on the side, all wagers will
be considered a push. And the wagers on the total will
still have action. |
