What is it exactly? Moneyline bets are one of the simplest and common wagers one can place on any sporting event. In this type of bet, the punter picks a single winner between two teams or two individuals for the event. If the bettor’s pick is successful, he wins the amount staked.
Moneylines can be represented in both positive and negative values because often, larger teams are paired up against inferior teams which automatically skew the odds towards a favorite. If you see a minus sign (-) in front of a team’s money line, it means that that team is the favorite. Whereas if you see a plus sign (+), that means that particular team is the underdog.
The Moneyline posted by sportsbooks for a particular team also indicates how much a bettor must bet or spend to win $100. For example, if you see that Chelsea is -250 to win. That means that a bettor would have to spend $250 to win $100. Similarly, if you see that Liverpool is +210 to win, that means that a bettor would have to spend $100 to win $210. Now, that you are familiar with how Moneyline bets function, let’s list down the pros and cons, you should keep in mind while betting on negative money lines. Let’s take a look at the pros and cons:
Pros
- Because of the simple nature of the bet, it can be a great way for beginners to learn to play the odds.
- It is also much easier to find value in these bets because of its simplicity.
Cons
