FOOTBALL
Official Game Times
Since bets are considered official after 55 minutes of play, if 55 minutes of play are not carried forth, a bet on the team will be treated as a no action, and a parlay bet will be reduced accordingly. Bets on the first and second halves and on all quarters shall be considered action when the period in question is completed. Bets made on spread, money line, totals for the whole game, plus all bets on second halves, will always include overtime scoring. Plus, bets for 4th quarter do not include overtime scoring.
The Game must be played on the date and site scheduled for it.

Betting on Football: Straight Wager
This wager involves choosing a team and point spread. The wager’s cost is 10/11 or $110 to win $100.
For example:
Green Bay Packers -7
Denver Broncos +7
If the straight wager is on the Packers -7, the Packers must win by 8 or more points for it to be a winner.
If the straight wager is on the Broncos +7, the Broncos cannot lose by more than 6 points for it to be a winner.
If the game lands on 7 points, the game is a "push" and will result in "no action".
Betting on Football: Totals (Over/Under)
This type of wager is on the combined scores (total) of a game, over or under the posted line. If you should place a wager for UNDER 38, the combined total score of both teams must fall UNDER 38 points.
For example:
Baltimore Ravens VS Atlanta Falcons TOTAL IS 38
If you place a wager for OVER 38, the combined total score of both teams must go OVER 38 points.
If the combined total score should fall on 38 points, the wager is a "PUSH" and there is "NO ACTION".
vertime counts for wagers that are placed for the game and for the second half.
Overtime will not count for wagers on the fourth quarter.
Betting on Football: Money Line Wager
With this type of wager you stipulate which team is going to win. Disregarding the point spread.
Example:
Green Bay Packers -280
Denver Broncos +240
When wagering on Green Bay -280, you lay $280 to win $100.
When wagering on Denver +240, you lay $100 to win $240.
Betting on Football: Parlay Wager
This wager involves a selection of teams in no particular order, and in one play. All the selected teams must win by the pointspread margin. More teams, greater payoff.
For example:
2 team parlay for $100
Green Bay Packers -7
Denver Broncos +7
ayout in a 2-team parlay is 2.64, which means you are risking $100 to win $264. In the event of a tie or no action, the parlay will revert to the lower level payoff, except in a 2-team
parlay where a tie reverts to a straight bet laying the original amount at risk.
Betting on Football: Teaser Wager
A wager in which 2 to 7 teams are selected together in one single wager with an adjusted point spread; here, you can add points to the sides or else mix both sides and totals, adding or subtracting to the totals. If one of the selections loses, the teaser will be considered a loss.
For example:
2 team teaser 7pts for $100
Green Bay -7+7 pts = teased line is now "pick"
Denver Broncos +7+7 pts = teased line is now +14
Payout in a 2-team teaser for 7 points is 10/13. In this example, you lay $130 to win $100.
Betting on Football: Pleaser Wager
A wager in which 2 to 6 teams are selected together in one single wager with an adjusted 6 point spread in favor of the house; here, you subtract points from the sides (no totals allowed). If one of the selections loses, the teaser will be considered a loss.
For example:
2 team pleaser 6pts for $100
Green Bay -7-6 pts = teased line is now -13
Denver Broncos +7-6 pts = teased line is now +1
Payout in a 2-team pleaser is 6 to 1. In this example, you lay $100 to win $600.

BASKETBALL
Official Game Times
Bets will be considered official after 43 minutes of play if NBA, or after 35 minutes of play, if NCAA. If no official time of play is conducted, the bets on the team are treated as no action, and the parlay bets will be reduced accordingly.
The game must be played on its scheduled date and site.
Team Totals and Special Spreads
The game should be completed up to 5 minutes of normal duration.
Player Props
All players must step on the court and play for action; the results are based on official game stats.
Season Total Wins:
NBA: the team must play at least 82 games for wagers on season wins to have action
Basketball Betting: Straight Bet
This is a wager made when you choose a team and the point spread; the cost is 10/11 or $110 to win $100.
For example:
Toronto Raptors +6
Chicago Bulls -6
If the straight bet is placed on the Bulls -6, the Bulls must win by 6 or more points for the wager to win.
If the game should land on 6 points, the game is a "push" and will result in "no action".
If the straight bet is placed on the Raptors +6, the Raptors shouldn’t lose by more than 6 points for the wager to win.
Overtime will count for wagers placed for the game and for the second half.
Overtime will not count for fourth-quarter wagers.
Basketball Betting: Totals (Over/Under)
This is a wager placed on the combined scores (total) of a game, either over or under the posted line. The cost of the wager is 10/11.
For example:
Dallas Mavericks
Indiana Pacers
TOTAL IS 178
If placing a wager for UNDER 178, the combined total score of both teams must fall UNDER 178 points.
If placing a wager for OVER 178, the combined total score of both teams must go OVER 178 points.
If the combined total score should fall right on 178 points, the wager is then a "PUSH" and there is "NO ACTION".
Overtime will count for wagers placed for the game and for the second half.
Overtime will not count for fourth-quarter wagers.
Basketball Betting: Money Line
Here you wager which team is going to win, while disregarding the point spread.
For example:
Orlando Magic -280
Houston Rockets +240
Wagering on Orlando -280, lay $280 to win $100.
Wagering on Houston +240, lay $100 to win $240.
Basketball Betting: Parlay
This wager involves a selection of teams in no particular order, and in one play. All the teams must win by the pointspread margin. More teams, greater payoff.
For example:
2 team parlay for $100
Portland Trail Blazers +4
San Antonio Spurs -10
Payout in a 2-team parlay is 2.64, which means you are risking $100 to win $264. In the event of a tie or no action, the parlay will revert to the lower level payoff, except in a 2-team parlay, where a tie
will revert to a straight bet.
Basketball Betting: Teaser
This wager involves 2 to 7 teams selected together in one single wager with an adjusted point spread. In this wager, you can add points to the sides or mix both sides and totals by adding or subtracting to the totals. If one of the selections loses, the wager is considered a loss.
For example:
2 team teaser 5pts for $100
Lakers +4+5 pts = teased line is now +9
Knicks -3+5 pts = teased line is now +2
Payout in a 2-team teaser for 5 points is 10/11. In this example, lay $110 to win $100.

Basketball Betting | Basketball Pleaser Wager (NBA Only)
This is a wager in which 2 to 6 teams are selected together in one wager with an adjusted 4 to 5 point spread in favor of the house. In a pleaser you subtract points from the sides (no totals allowed). If one selection loses the teaser is considered a loss.
- Example:
- 2 team pleaser 5pts for $100
- Miami Heat -7 (add -5 pts) = the teased line is now -12
- Boston Celtics +7(add -5 pts) = the teased line is now +2
-
The payout in a 2 team NBA 5 PT pleaser is 6 to 1. Therefore, in this case you would lay $100 to win $600.

BASEBALL
Official Game Time
After 5 innings of play, Winners and Losers are official unless the home team is leading after 4½ innings. If a game were to be called or suspended, the winner is determined by the score after the last full inning. If the home team should score to tie - or else takes the lead in the bottom half of the inning and the inning is not completed, the winner is determined by the score at the time the game is called. If the home team ties the game and is then suspended, monies will be refunded. No Events will carry over to the following day, unless otherwise specified. For betting purposes, BETLUCKIESwill not recognize suspended games, protests, overturned decisions, etc.
If betting on total runs (over/under), the game should go to 9 innings (8½ if home team is ahead) to have action. Wagers on the total runs will be refunded if there is a pitcher change prior to both listed pitchers throwing at least one pitch. The rules that apply for run line wagers are the same as those for baseball totals.
The Game must be played on its scheduled date and site. During MLB Playoffs, all wagers will have action until the game is played to completion, regardless of duration or day on which they end.
Selection of Pitcher
Baseball wagers will be accepted in the following manner:
Action
Team against team, regardless of the starting pitcher. Action bets will be calculated by the opening price with the new pitcher. A pitcher is considered a starting pitcher after he throws one pitch.
Overnight Baseball
Due to scheduling changes, an overnight game might become part of a doubleheader; if this should occur, all overnight bets are action if the originally listed pitchers square off in either game.
One specified pitcher
This is a wager on or against a specified pitcher, regardless of the other starting pitcher.
Both specified pitchers (listed)
If the starting pitchers are not exactly as listed on the betting display board and/or your ticket, your bet will be considered "no action".
Note:
If there is a change in pitchers prior to the game, the money odds may be adjusted. If one scheduled pitcher starts against an unscheduled pitcher, actionwagers will be calculated by the opening price with the new pitcher. A pitcher is considered a starting pitcher after throwing one pitch.
Baseball Betting: Money Line
Betting on baseball is carried out by risking more money than the win amount on favorites or risking less to win more on dogs or underdogs (teams that are not favored to win).
BETLUCKIES offers you a special $0.10 Progressive Baseball Money Line where your odds will be tighter on closely handicapped games, thus giving you much better odds.
-105 to -140 10 Cents
-145 to -170 15 Cents
-175 to -185 20 Cents
-200 30 Cents
-210 35 Cents
-220 to -285 40 Cents
-300 50 Cents
-320 to -360 60 Cents
Overnight Lines are 20 Cents until 7:30am (PT)
For example:
By wagering on the Mets -140, you lay $140 to win $100. By wagering on the Reds +120,
Mets - 140
Reds + 120
you lay $100 to win $120.
Baseball Betting: Totals Over/Under
You have a standard 20 cent line.
For example:
If you take the Mets over 7 runs you lay $120 to win $100. If you take the Reds under 7 you
Mets 7 over -120
7 under Even Money
lay $100 to win $100 (even money). The team doesn't actually matter, as you are betting only on the total game runs.
Baseball Betting: Run Line Betting
A baseball Run Line bet is a combination of point spread and money line. The team you’re wagering on must win by the point spread, and the money line odds determine the amount wagered.
For example:
If you wager on the Braves, you must win by 2 or more runs. You lay $100 to win $130.
If you wager on the Pirates, they shouldn’t lose by 2 or more runs. You lay $150 to win $100.
Baseball Betting: Parlays
If placing a parlay on baseball, remember you cannot combine the run lines and totals of the same team on the same parlay because they are considered correlated wagers.
This following chart can be used to calculate payoff on baseball betting parlays; you can select from 2 to 15 teams and then use the factor that corresponds to the line if betting on the favorite; if betting on the underdog, just add 1 to the line. Maximum parlay payout is $ 150,000
For example:
Braves -1 1/2 +130
Pirates +1 1/2 -150
Taking the Pirates +220 and the Braves -135 in a 2 team parlay for $100 100 (wager) x 3.2 x
1.74 – 100 (wager)= $457
For example:
3 team parlay taking the Red Sox +148, Mets EVEN and Texas -119 for $100 100 (wager) x
2.48 x 2.00 x 1.840 – 100 (wager)= $813

TOTAL SEASON WINS:
MLB: The team must play at least 160 games for the wagers on its season wins to have action
MLB - SERIES
The Bets on series are based on the FIRST 3 GAMES PLAYED for each series. Neither one of the teams can play another opponent between scheduled games. If one of the first three games should get postponed, all wagers stand (ACTION). If less than 3 games are played, the team that has the advantage is the winner of the series.
All wagers are based on action (no listed pitchers)
MLB - First Halves
Bets are based on the score in the first 5 FULL INNINGS; if after the first 5 full innings the game is not completed, all the wagers on the first half will still stand. If only 4½ innings are played and the home team is ahead, the 1st half will be graded as “Short Game” (ML is
action).
All wagers are based on listed pitchers.
MLB - Second Halves
The Bets are based on the score taken from the top of the 6th inning and until the end of the game. It must be a complete game (that is to say, 9 innings or 8½ innings if the home team were ahead). Wagers include extra innings.
All wagers are action, regardless of the pitcher.
MLB - Total hits runs and errors
It has to be a full game, which means 9 innings to have action (or 8½ if the home team is ahead).
All wagers are based on listed pitchers.
MLB - Team to score first
The first team to score in the game; if there is a score and the game was suddenly cancelled or postponed, all the wagers would stand regardless of how many innings got to be played.
MLB - Team to score last
It has to be an official game. All the wagers are based on listed pitchers.
MLB - Will there be a run scored in the first inning
If a run gets scored in the first inning and then the game is suddenly cancelled or postponed all wagers stand. If the first inning is completed, no run was scored, and the game is suddenly cancelled or postponed, all wagers stand.
All wagers are based on listed pitchers.
MLB - Strikeouts by Team
In the event the game should get suspended before 5 full innings are played, all wagers on Strikeouts by team will be cancelled. If a match were shortened before completion but after 5 innings, the strikeouts will be only recorded to the last full innings. For example, if a match were to be called after 7.5 innings, all strikeouts will be recorded only after 7 full innings.
MLB - Baseball Team Total

SOCCER
Scored (Official)
Match odds are based on the result at the end of a scheduled play of 90 minutes, unless stated otherwise. The bets are settled on the score that is standing at the end of the scheduled 90-minute play including any additional injury or stoppage times. This programmed period will not include extra time, penalty shoot out time, nor golden goal. Prices for extra time can be introduced at the end of the scheduled period.
Postponed, brought forward or abandoned matches
A match that is unplayed or postponed will be treated as a "non-runner" for the purpose of settling, unless played within the same week (that ends on a Sunday); in such a case, the bet will stand unless cancelled by mutual consent. If a match is rescheduled from the weekend to a Monday night for live TV coverage purposes, all the bets on that match will stand. If any of the matches listed on the website coupon are played prior to the denoted date or kick-off time, these matches may be included provided the wager is placed not later than the revised kick-off time. Any match abandoned before the of 90 minutes of play are completed will be void unless the match is rearranged and played the following day in which case bets will stand, except for those for which the outcome has already been determined at the time of the abandonment. For example, First Player to Score or Time of the First Goal bets will stand if a goal has been scored at the time of abandonment.The only exception to this abandoned match rule is regarding all South American domestic matches, where the bets will be settled on the score at the time of the abandonment, if and when the pertaining league allows the result to stand. The score at the end of the 90-minute play will be taken to be the final result. The extra time will not be considered part of the match. The Results issued by the Pools Panel regarding matches that are postponed are not admissible and any such matches will be void.
Betting on Soccer
Money line wager on soccer give you a draw line as well as sides. In case of a draw (for example 1-1), all the wagers on either of the sides will be graded as losers. Also, in the event of a draw, only wagers placed on the draw line will be graded as a win. This rule will not apply to bets that are placed on the spread.
The result of the game will be decided after 90 minutes of play plus injury time. Extra time, overtime and golden goal will not be taken into consideration for soccer bets unless otherwise stated.
If any match were abandoned or postponed, all bets will be void unless the market result that is relevant to the bet has already happened. For example, a betting for "first goal scorer" will stand if a goal has already been scored.
Wherever a venue is changed, the bets will stand unless the game is to be played at the original venue, in which case all bets will be void.
Matches not played as listed
Whenever the venue of any match that is arranged is changed, that selection will be void.
SOCCER WORLD CUP: Tie-breaking criteria
Teams will be ranked according to the following criteria:
1. Which advanced the farthest
2. Which has the greater number of points in all the group matches
3. The goal difference in all the group matches
4. The greater number of goals scored in all the group matches
5. The greatest number of points attained in matches between tied teams
6. The goal difference in matches played between tied teams
7. The greatest number of goals scored in matches played between tied teams
Asian Handicap
Handicap (as well as spread as used in American sports) means a fictive head start given to one of the teams, which by default would be the underdog, which will be virtually leading the game by 0.25 goal, 0.5 goal, 0.75 goal , 1 goal, 1.5 goal, etc. The punter must back the favorite to beat this handicap or else back the underdog to hold it. The default handicap may also be 0 goals (level ball) when both teams are deemed more or less equal.
The bets for Asian Handicap are settled by adding the handicap to the actual game result.
For example, if Wigan received a 0.5 goal advantage against Blackburn (Wigan +0.5) and the game ends with a draw, the bet on Wigan wins by half a goal. Bets on Blackburn win if Rovers just wins, regardless of the result. When we have a -1.5 handicap, the favorite must win the game by a margin of at least 2 goals, or the underdog (+1.5) would be winning by half or more goals. For the 0, 1 and 2 goals handicaps, the result for betting purposes could be a virtual draw; in this case, all stakes are refunded. For example, if Man United is set one goal down to Middlesbrough, and they win by exactly 1 goal, the Asian Handicap result is a draw and all bets will be settled as void.
Many Asian Handicap lines cover the same thing as other betting options: the 0 goals handicap is equal to "Draw No Bet", the +0.5 is the same as backing the underdog at "Double Chance", the -1.5 is the same as the Euro Handicap (0:1). The odds are usually higher, though.
In live (in-play) betting, the Asian Handicap bets usually apply only to the remaining time of the game and NOT to the whole 90 minutes. Be sure to check the bookmake’rs rules first thing.
SPLIT HANDICAPS (or Quarter Ball)
Asian Handicap betting comes with "split" handicaps just because lines like -0.25 or +1.75 seem awkward. Several bookies and sites use different formats to show the same thing so you might see
0.75 depicted as "3/4" or "0.5”, as “1/2" ; 1.25 as "1 1/4", etc.
Most bookies may provide a hint in the way they are displaying handicaps like 0, 0.5 or 0.5, 1. In these cases, the bet is basically split into two separate handicap bets. For example, if you bet 10 EUR on -0.75 (-0.5, -1) goal handicap, you bet in fact 5 EUR on -0.5 and 5 EUR on -1 goal handicap. If your team wins by 2-1, half of your bet (5 EUR) is winning with the given odds (the one for the -0.5 handicap) and the other half of your stake will be refunded.
GOAL LINES (Totals)
Asian goal lines (in other words, betting on the total number of goals scored in a game) are quite alike to the classic under/over bets, but you can find many more different lines such as 1.75 goals, 2.25 goals etc. which work under the same idea as split handicaps. Remember, in live betting (unlike Asian Handicap) goal lines apply to the whole 90 minutes of play.

HOCKEY

The game becomes official after 55 minutes of play. The goals scored during overtime will be included for wagers on the game, but will not be included on wagers for the third period.
If a game should require a shoot-out to determine the winner, One goal will be awarded to the winner for the final score (regardless of how many goals were actually scored in the shoot-out) which will be recognized for the total of goals scored as well as for the winning team.
The game must be played on its scheduled date and site.
NHL Betting Periods
The full 20 minutes must be played to have action.
NHL Overtime Line
Bets on NHL overtime line are for the complete overtime, regardless of how many periods for overtime are played, and include a shoot-out if it is required to determine the winner.
NHL team totals
Team totals in NHL are based on regulation time only; times such as shootout and overtime do not count
NHL 3-Way and European Ice Hockey (Draw line quote)
NHL 3 way and European Ice Hockey are settled without overtime (60 minutes of play) for the main quote (Away/Home/Draw/Total). This option will NOT include overtime or shootout.
Betting on Hockey
NHL -Alternative Pucklines & Totals include overtime and shootouts
Line Types
We have 3 different line types for Hockey: Canadian Line, 3 Way Option Line, and Straight Money Line.
Betting on Hockey: Canadian Line
Canadian line is a combination goal line and money line. The money line is a 20 cent line for straight bets.
For example:
Boston Bruins +1 1/2 -140
L.A. Kings -1 1/2 +120
If a client were betting on the Kings, they would give-up a goal and a half and risk $100 to win $120, and the Kings must win by at least two goals. If they were betting on the Bruins,
they would get a goal and half but would risk $140 to win $100.
Betting on Hockey: Money Line
All money line options are prices to win the game outright, in accordance to NHL rules.
For example:
Boston Bruins +110
L.A. Kings -130
Selecting the Bruins to win the game, if you bet $100 it would win you $110. If selecting the Kings to win, risk $130 to win $100.
Betting on Hockey: Totals Over/Under
For example:
Bruins +1 1/2 -140 5 OVER -130
Kings -1 1/2 +120
Besides having favorites on sides, you also have favorites on totals; for over 5 goals, the customer would lay $130 to win $100. If betting on the game to go under five goals the customer goes with the underdog so they receive a larger return, risking $100 to win $110. If
no money line is indicated, the total has a "FLAT" line or -110 whether betting over or under, in which case the customer lays $110 to win $100 either way. When wagering on total goals, if the score falls on the number (in this case five) it will be deemed "no action".
Hockey Parlays Betting
In hockey parlays, you can combine from 2 to 15 teams into a single wager, thus resulting in higher betting payouts such as in baseball parlays. Note: Hockey parlays are calculated similarly to how they are calculated in baseball. Maximum parlay payout is $150,000.
