\u2b50 How to Bet on Sports<\/h2>\n
Once you have sorted out all the things listed above, like downloaded the app and signed up, it’s time to start betting! Online sports betting is very easy since you can scroll through all the betting options and switch between different games and odds. Before you start, choose a bankroll and stick to it! Below are some other tips you can use to wager on SI Sportsbook.<\/p>\n
\n
First you have to pick what you want to wager on. SI Sportsbook has tons of sporting events to choose from, including all major sports (football, baseball, basketball, hockey, etc.), more unique markets like table tennis, and college sports.<\/li>\n
Once you’ve selected the sports you want to bet on, it’s time to move onto the bet types. There are a few main types you should be familiar with. Moneylines are bets on the winner of the game, while point spreads are bets on the margin of the win or loss. You can also bet on the total number of points (over or under), a future Stanley Cup\/Super Bowl\/Heisman Trophy winner, or combine several of these bets into parlays or round robins. Finally, prop bets are bets on individuals or team events like first scorer and team to get the first penalty.<\/li>\n
Make sure you understand how your chosen bet works; for example, if you bet on a total, it matters whether the line is over\/under 55 or 55.5. In the first case, there can be a push, meaning you get your stake back but nobody wins. Also, note that there can be hundreds of prop bets depending on the sport, so don’t try to bet on everything.<\/li>\n
The next step is to take a look at the odds. SI has good odds for all sports, but there are differences between sportsbooks for almost every game, so some people line shop before betting. If you stick with SI, they offer daily odds boosts on some bets (known as SI Specials). These bump up your winnings so make sure to check those out before placing bets.<\/li>\n
Now you’re ready to add your selections to the bet slip, just click around and you can see on the slip. Then choose the bet amount; you must bet $20 or more to qualify for the bet credits. If you don’t want to make a parlay bet, select each wager and the bet amount separately.<\/li>\n
If you’d rather participate in live betting, that’s also possible on SI Sportsbook. All live markets are prominently displayed on the home page, and you see the odds changing and markets closing in real time. In-play betting is one of the most popular ways of betting on sports, since you can quickly settle the bets and choose them based on the action.<\/li>\n
All you can do now is wait for your bets to settle! Good luck!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
