and it must exceed 40 points. When betting the "under",
the total score for each team is added together and cannot exceed
39 points to win the wager, if the total score add up to exactly
40 points, the bet is called a "push" and the money is
credited to your account.
Money Line Wagering

in order to win your bet. Wagering on SAN FRANCISCO $-290, the point
spread does not matter. You must risk $290 to win $100. Wagering
on SEATTLE $+240, you stake $100 to win $240.

"If the current line for Raiders is -3.5,
and you buy 0.5 point, the final line will be Raiders -3. Because
this line is the same as a field goal you will have to lay -120
plus an extra 10% charge, so picking Raiders -3 buying 0.5 point
is going to cost you $130 to win $100."
