How To Go About Plac­ing A Bas­ket­ball Bet
When plac­ing a bas­ket­ball bet there are a few dif­fer­ent kinds of bas­ket­ball bets avail­able to you:
Straight or sin­gle bet: This is one of the most com­mon and sim­ple of all bet, here you are given the odds and you sim­ply have to place your bet on the win­ner.
Point spread: In this bas­ket­ball bet you are given two selec­tions and you have to place your bet on the win­ner. Here the two selec­tions are made equal by allo­cat­ing some points to the under­dog team. The num­ber of points allo­cated is known as a Point Spread. In the point spread the ‘+’ sign is used to rep­re­sent the favorite and the ‘-’ is used to rep­re­sent the under­dog of the teams. For you to win when plac­ing a bas­ket­ball bet such as this, your favorite team has to win more than the allo­cated point spread or you will lose the bet. In the same way if you bet on the under­dog team then that team has to lose by less than the allo­cated point spread for you to win. A bas­ket­ball bet is con­sid­ered to be a push or a tie only when a favorite wins by the exact point spread. In such a sit­u­a­tion your bet is returned to you. The odd mak­ers often include half a point spread to elim­i­nate the tie results. A team has to win out­right since only full num­bers are used on scores.
Par­lay or Accu­mu­la­tor: This bet is one kind of a mul­ti­ple bet. The process of Par­lay is a con­tin­u­ous process where of Par­lay you can make simul­ta­ne­ous selec­tions on two or more games with the inten­tion of lay­ing the win­nings of the first win on the next game. To win the Par­lay bet all the selec­tions that you have made must win the games. Your Par­lay is reduced by one selec­tion when a game is tied, can­celled or post­poned. In these cases a triple bet often becomes a dou­ble and a dou­ble bet becomes a straight bet. If you win accord­ing to a Par­lay bet then you will be able to reap in huge div­i­dends.
Teaser: This bet is quite sim­i­lar to the Par­lay bet; how­ever, it has the advan­tage of adding your sub­tract­ing points from one or more Spread bets. When plac­ing a bas­ket­ball bet such as this, the adding or sub­tract­ing of points is often referred to as ‘mov­ing the line’. In the Teaser, if a per­son lays a bet then addi­tional points are either sub­tracted from the favorite or added to the under­dog. In this bet the odds vary accord­ing to the num­ber of teams are com­bined to from the teaser and to the num­ber of points the spread is moved. The teaser odds are often worse than Par­lays and just as in the Par­lay, all your selec­tions need to win for you to win the bet.
If-wager: In this bet depend­ing upon your win in your first selec­tion, you can make a sec­ond bet of an equal amount.
Open-wager: This bet will allow you to play teasers or par­lays. You can make your selec­tions on dif­fer­ent days or at dif­fer­ent times.
