The 2-Way Moneyline Another way of betting soccer is taking the two-way moneyline, which is offered in two simple ways: Double Chance and Draw No Bet. Both are graded solely on 90 minutes of regulation. Double Chance means you're betting on a specific team to win/draw, or either team to win.
Soccer events can be a 3 way (Team A, Team B, and Draw) or 2 way (Team A or Team B). When wagering on the 3-way moneyline there are three options. Your selected option must be correct for your wager to be a winner. For example, if you selected Team B and the event ends in a Draw, your selection on Team B loses.
If they win, you win, no matter the score. While a point spread requires the team you bet on to win by a specified margin, moneyline does not. However, point spread bets typically have odds somewhat close to even money, meaning you would win about as much as you bet if you won. Moneyline bets have a wide range of odds.
This means that the underdog must win outright or lose by exactly one point to cover the spread. Alternatively, a +1.5 spread means that the favorite must win by two points, runs, etc. or more. The +1.5 is the standard “run line” in MLB betting. Many baseball games are decided by fewer than two runs.
For favorites you are always risking the money to win $100, and with underdogs you risk $100 to win the amount. A -135 favorite means you must risk $135 to win $100 from the sportsbook. You either lose $135, win $100, or your wager is a push. A +350 underdog means you risk only $100, but you win $350.
A moneyline is simply a bet type that only includes Odds, as in “Odds to win”. Example: a moneyline of +150, is just +150 odds ($100 to win $150) for the listed team to win. A moneyline of -150 is just -150 odds ($150 to win $100) for the listed team to win. Philadelphia. +150.
Higher numbers like +400, +500, +5000, etc. represent how much of an underdog the team is in the game. The higher the number the more likely the team is expected to lose in the eyes of the oddsmakers. The number also indicates how much money would win in comparison to every $100 you wager.
Positive moneyline: +145, +220, or anything similar represent how much of an underdog the team is in the game. The higher the number the more likely the team is expected to lose in the eyes of the oddsmakers. The number also indicates how much money would win in comparison to every $100 you wager.
