Every casino has a sportsbook, and there are a lot of bets that can win a lot of money. One of these bets can be the total line bet or as it is often called the under or over bet. This wager starts out by giving you a total number. Let’s say the number is 65. What this wager is wanting you to do is pick an over or under. Over meaning that the total points combined(scored) by both teams in the final overall score gets passed 65. Under meaning the exact opposite, that the overall score of both teams added up will be below 65.

What Is an Under or Over bet

What to think about – You first want to see if the wager is even reasonable to wager. Most casinos are pretty accurate with their guesses. A total line bet is always going to be -110, meaning you have to bet $110 to win a 100. You also need to see if there is a half a point on the over and under. Most of time you will see a number like 65.5, that way there is no chance of a tie between you and the casino. If the number is exact like 65 then you need to see what the casino does with ties. They will either say you lose on a tie or it is a push. Most of the time it is a push.
