Over Under Betting
| |
Horror of horrors, you've been invited to a tailgate party,
and you'd rather chew nails for breakfast! Declining the invitation is grounds
for divorce, but the dentist has refused your invitation to perform that
overdue root canal on a Sunday afternoon. You're just sure he's betting on the
game, which gives you an idea: a little money on the line is a tantalizing
thought. Unfortunately, what you know about sports betting could not fill a
thimble, and you really have no interest in which team wins anyway. Your spouse
mentions something about "under-over" betting, or was that "over-under"
betting?
Over under betting is a simple pass/fail method of betting, available on the
Internet or through a traditional bookmaker. If you can add two numbers
together and arrive at the correct total, then over-under betting has your name
written all over it. It's an easy way for novice sports betters to get started
since it lacks the complexity of point spreads.

How Does Over Under Betting Work?
Over-under betting relies on the combined total of both teams' scores. You can
place over-under bets in football, basketball, hockey, baseball, and soccer.
· The bookmaker sets the over-under number.
· You place your bet that the final combined score will be over the bookmaker's
number or under the bookmaker's number.
· In the unlikely event that the final combined score is the bookmaker's
over-under number, it's a push, and you get your money back. No one wins or
loses when a push occurs.
You are betting on one thing: either the game is going to be more exciting than
the bookmaker thinks, or it's going to be a duller game than the bookmaker
thinks. It boils down to betting offense vs. defense.
Over Under Betting Scenario
· The bookmaker sets the over-under for a Titans/Dolphins game at 36.
· The TN Titans score 27 points.
· The Miami Dolphins score 14 points.
· The combined total is 41 points. (A combined score of 37 or better would have
won the over bet.)
· The over betters win the wager, because they beat the over-under number by
several points.
Over-under betting offers sports enthusiasts and mere mortals a simple way to
bet on sports without requiring any advanced knowledge of the underlying sport.
