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.
