This Week: Hansel Wei on What You'll Encounter if you're new to betting sports. Read the whole article in Hansel's Zone at GoSportsBet.
The point spread is a handicap given to the favorite in terms of points. The
favorite is followed by (-points), and the underdog is followed by (+points). For instance,
if a betting line reads New England Patriots -9.5 vs. San Diego Chargers +9.5, this means
that the oddsmakers felt that in the eyes of the betting public, the Patriots are 9.5 points
better than the Chargers. If in this situation you bet on the Patriots, they must win the
game by more than 9.5 points (ie, at least 10) in order for you to collect. If the Patriots
either win by less than 9.5 points or lose outright, this means a loss for a Patriots point
spread bettor.
On the other hand, if you bet the underdog Chargers, you essentially spot the
Chargers 9.5 points. If the Chargers end up winning the game or losing by less than 9.5
points (nine points or less), you win your bet. Lines of half-points are given in part so the
game cannot land exactly on the point spread, resulting in a “push” or tie, where neither
the bettor nor the bookmaker would win.
It is important to note that the line is not designed to show which team is favored
and how much they should win by. The line is meant to make each team equally
attractive to the betting public. No matter how great the mismatch, the point spread at
least in theory makes both teams equally “bettable”; that is, when factoring in the
handicap, equal numbers of people will want to put their money on each team. It should
be emphasized that the first line released by the Las Vegas Sports Consultants is by no
means the only line or the final line on a game. Lines fluctuate depending on how much
betting takes place on either team. If, in the example above, the Patriots opened at -9.5...

This Week: Battle Royale
Battle Royale is a fun and simple game based on the children’s game War. Once the ante has been placed, you and the dealer each receive one card face-up. The higher card drawn wins the “battle” and if you win, you double your money. If your card is lower than the dealer's you lose your ante.
In the event of a tie, you can choose to surrender and lose your ante or to “Go to Battle”. The battle commences: you place a bet equal to your ante and each combatant receives an additional card. If you win, you receive both bets back and win the value of your original ante. You do not receive any extra winnings for the additional bet. If you are beaten, you lose both the original ante and the second bet. A big win is achieved when the second set of two cards also results in a tie. You then receive a 3:1 pay out on all the bets placed.
