Point Spread

The most common type of NFL betting, here you basically decide which team you think will win, and by how many points. Sports books will offer your various bets at different odds levels based on the amount you think your team will win, and at different levels of risk. When the game is over, you add or subtract the points awarded by the sportsbook from the actual score, and if your team still wins (or loses, depending on how you bet), you win the bet.

This sounds complicated, but it is based on the idea that the public will generally side with the favourites. This isn’t always the case, as I’m sure you’re aware – the favorite doesn’t always win! In any case, if point spread betting sounds a bit tricky, try the next type of NFL bet.

Money Line

NFL Moneyline Betting eliminates the point spread so you now pick only winners. Even if the winner only wins by one point, you still win your bet. Moneyline bets can be riskier than points bets, as you usually have to bet more to win more, as the odds are reduced, but, on the other hand, if you bet wisely, you can come up with a steady win rate with your NFL bets. .

Total

NFL betting isn’t always about the winner, as we’ll see in this type of bet. Here you are not betting on one NFL team or the other, but betting on the total performance of both teams, and the total number of points they will score together. You can choose whether the total score will be above or below a given total, and while your odds will generally be very slim, these bets can add to your earnings well if you choose the right ones.

Be careful with the totals, they are very unpredictable. Some games are absolutely singeing with huge point counts, while some are incomplete.

Last Super Tip

“Accumulator“, or “parlay”. This is an NFL bet with very low risk, very high payouts that you won’t win often, but when you do win, you will cash out. Basically, you place a series of joint bets – which may be a series of wins, losses, or a combination of all of the above types of NFL bets.

While each individual bet may be a low-risk bet with a high chance of winning, to correctly predict the outcome of a series of 10 or more events is indeed very unlikely, as well as high odds. You can bet $1, and pass the winnings on to the next bet each time. If all ten bets win, you are ready to make a lot of money. These bets can be a pleasure in addition to your regular sports and NFL betting program.
