- Total or over/under
- Parlays
- Teaser
- Props
- Round robin (RR)
- Futures
- Live betting

Moneyline Bet
A moneyline bet is betting on a team or player you think will win the game. In this bet, you are picking the winner of the game.
When using the American odds, the favourite to win the game is represented by the ‘-‘ sign and the underdog by the ‘+’ sign. There are 2 types of moneyline bets:
- 2-way moneyline: In a 2-way moneyline betting, you are betting on the winning team, and if the match ends in a draw or tie, the wager is refunded. For example, in the Lakers (-130) and Pistons (+190) match, the Pistons are favourites, and a $130 bet can bring you $100 in profit if the Lakers win. Pistons are underdogs and a $100 bet can bring you $190 in profit if the Pistons win.
- 3-way moneyline: In a 3-way moneyline betting, a draw or tie is considered the 3rd option, so the wagers are not refunded. For example, in a Match between Spain and Portugal, the odds are Spain +135, Draw+ 210, and Portugal +250. If Spain wins, a $100 bet will bring you $135 in profit; if Portugal wins, a $100 bet will bring you $1250 in profit; and if the match ends in a draw, a $100 bet will bring you $210 in profit.
Point Spread Bet
Sportsbooks create a number called the point spread to close the gap between the favorite and the underdog, with the favorite having negative points and the underdog having positive points. A point spread bet is a betting on which team will win the game. To determine the bet’s outcome, the points are added to your team’s final score if you’re taking the points with the underdog and subtracted from your team’s final score if you’re laying the points with the favorite.
For example, in the same LA Lakers (-130) and Detroit Pistons (+190) match, a point spread of 8 points is applied. Suppose the final scores end up Lakers 125 and Pistons 119. In that case, bettors betting on the Lakers lose the bet as 8 points are subtracted from the Lakers final score, making the scoreline Lakers 117 and Pistons 119. But, on the other hand, bettors betting on Pistons win as 8 points are added to Pistons final score, making the scoreline Lakers 125 and Pistons 127.
Prop Bet
A prop bet or proposition bet is a bet on a specific event or player in a match, not the match’s outcome. It allows betting on outcomes within the match than on the match as a whole. Examples of prop bets are Will Stephen Curry score over or under 25 points in an NBA game? Or will Aaron Judge hit two home runs in the same MLB game?
Round Robin Bet
A round robin bet combines multiple parlays into one bet. When you make all your selections, a round robin will create parlays of all possible combinations between them. So, making more selections will create more parlay combinations in your round robin. You cannot use round robin bets with the same game parlays.
Total or Over/Under bet
A total or over/under bet is a bet on the total number of points, runs, or goals in a match. The sportsbook sets the line, and you have to bet whether the total score will go over or under the line. For example, the over/under total for the same Lakers and Pistons game is set to 160. An over bettor will win if the combined total points of both the teams at the end of the game are over 160, while an under bettor will win if the combined total points are under 160. If the combined total is 160, the bet is in the push, and the wager will be refunded.
Teaser
A teaser is similar to a parlay bet, except that it allows adjusting the point spreads and game totals on two or more picks. The number of selected picks and points determines the payout odds. All the picks must be correct for the bet to win, and if any pick results in a push or draw, that pick is removed, and odds are adjusted accordingly. A push while betting on a Super/Monster teaser will result in a loss. In contrast, a push in a two-pick teaser is considered ‘no action’, and the wager is refunded.
Parlay bet
A parlay is a combination of two or more single bets into one bet. Payout is increased with each additional bet, so the more the bets in parlay, the higher the payout. However, all the additional bets must win for the parlay to win; if any single bet loses, the whole parlay loses.
Besides the traditional parlays (the one explained above), DraftKings allows two more types of parlays –
Player Prop Parlays – allows you to choose the winning team and one event from the same game in a singular bet. For example, if you are betting on the First Basket/Winner market, you can pick a winning team and the player to score first.
Same Game Parlays (SGP) – allows you to combine multiple bets from the same game. It is available only for pre-match bets, and the events supporting it will have a +SGP logo next to every game card.
Futures Bet
A futures bet is a bet on the result of a multi-stage event like a championship or a tournament. You can bet on both team and player markets. Super Bowl winners, division winners, season winners, and teams to make the NLF playoffs are some examples of categories available for futures betting in the team market. Some examples of player’s futures betting are season’s most valuable player, manager of the year, and Rookie of the year in the Major League Baseball.
Live Bet
A Live bet is a bet made while the game is still ongoing. It is also known as in-play betting or in-game betting, and the odds keep on changing as the game progresses. For example, the Lakers started the game as a favorite, but at halftime, the Pistons took an 18-point lead, so the odds will shift towards the Pistons winning the game.
Pools
Pools are a fixed price point form of betting where bets are placed against other sports bettors from the same event. The winning prize depends on the number of other sports bettors and winners in the pool. Participants picking the specified number of correct picks will win a share of the prizes based on the number of correct picks winners.
