Betting Rules: Betting on
Hockey
We
offer 3 different types
of lines for Hockey; The
Canadian Line, American
Line (Puck Line), and Straight
Money Lines. All customers
must choose between either
Canadian or American Lines
when he/she first sets up
their sports betting account.
Hockey
Betting Rules: Hockey Betting
| Canadian Line
The
Canadian line is a combination
of a goal and money line.
The money line is a 20 cent
line for straight bets.
Example:
Boston Bruins +1/2 -140
L.A. Kings -1/2 +120
. If betting on the Kings
the customer would give-up
half a goal and would risk
$100 to win $120, the Kings
must win by at least one
goal. If betting on the
Bruins the customer would
get half a goal but would
risk $140 to win $100.
Hockey
Betting | American Line
The American Line (Puck Line)
is similar to the Canadian
Line except, generally there
is no juice (vigorish) involved,
but involves a "gap" in the
goal line.
Example:
Boston Bruins +1 even
L.A. Kings -1½ even
. In this example, the Kings
must win by at least 2 goals
for you to win that wager.
On the other hand, if you
choose the Bruins, they must
at least tie, for you to win.
Hockey
Betting | Money Line
All money line options are
prices to win the game outright,
regardless of a point spread
with a tie being a "push".
Example:
Boston Bruins +110
L.A. Kings -130
. If you select the Bruins
to win the game, betting $100
would win you $110. If you
select the Kings to win, you
would need to risk $130 to
win $100.
Hockey
Betting | Totals Over/Under
Example:
Bruins +1/2 -140 5 OVER
-130
Kings -1/2 +120
. As well as having favorites
on sides you also have favorites
on totals, in this example
over the total of five goals
is indicated as the favorite
in which case 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 he/she receives a larger
return in this case risking
$100 to win $110. If there
is no money line indicated
the total has a "FLAT" line
or -110 whether betting
over or under, in which
case the customer would
lay $110 to win $100 either
way. When you wager on total
pucks, if the score falls
on the number in this case
five, it will be "no action".
Hockey
Parlays Betting
With
hockey parlays you can combine
anywhere from 2 to 8 teams
into a single wager resulting
in higher betting payouts
as in baseball parlays. Note:
Hockey parlays are calculated
as they are in baseball.

How
To Bet On NHL Hockey Online
In Our Recommended NHL Sportsbooks
To bet on hockey,
tell the ticket writer the
bet number of the team you
wish to bet and the amount
you wish to wager. If your
team covers the goal spread,
you win. The payout is based
on a "Money Line".
The
Goal Spread:
When betting
on hockey, the team you bet
on must "cover the spread."
This means the team must win
or not lose by a predetermined
margin of goals.
The Money Line:
Odds for a game based on $1.00 A "minus"
(-) preceding the number
indicates the team is a favorite. A
"plus" (+) preceding
the number indicates the team is an
underdog.

Note:
The bottom team is
always listed as the home
team unless otherwise noted.
The Red Wings
are 1 1/2-goal favorites to
win. The Red Wings must win
the game by at least two goals
to be a winner. If you bet
on the Sharks, you win your
bet if:
(a) The Sharks win the game.
(b) The game ends in a tie.
(c) The Sharks lose the game
by not more than 1 goal.
Note:
The money line is
used in conjunction with the
point spread. If the Red Wings
win by 2 goals; a $15 bet
would win $10 and return $25.
If the Sharks win, tie or
lose by one goal; a $10 bet
would win $13 and return $23.
It is common
for a team to be listed as
a 1/2-goal favorite and be
listed with a +120 price.
This means that by giving
up 1/2 goal, a $10 bet would
win $12 for a return of $22.
Total:
Total points scored in a game.
Also called the over/under.
You may wager
that the total score of the
game will be more or less
than the number listed. It
makes no difference which
team covers the spread. Simply
add the final scores of each
team. The payout, unless stated
otherwise, is figured at odds
of 10/11 (-110).
Hockey
Parlays
You may combine
several teams into one wager.
All teams must win to win
the bet. Hockey parlays are
figured out by calculating
the payout for the first game,
based on the money line, then
applying that amount to the
next game and so forth.
