What type of bets are there?

Moneyline

How Do I Bet On The Fight Tonight Football

Probably the most popular type of bets because it’s the simplest. Pick which fighter will win.

Total Rounds

Total round wagers are just that -- the total number of rounds a fight will go and is mostly in half-points (1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5). A half a round is considered to be the midpoint in the round (2 minutes 30 seconds). I have never seen a sportsbook use any other definition, but always make sure to read the house rules to make sure this is correct.

In the market below, under is the winner if the fight ends before 2:30 in the second round. If the fight continues past the 2:30 mark in the second round, then the over is the winner.

To Go The Distance

This type of wager is a Yes/No type prop where Yes is the winner if the fight finishes all rounds and goes to the judges (‘the distance’). If the fight does not, then No will be the winner.

Other bet types

While the three listed above are the most popular, they are not the only bet types, including Winning Method (e.g. fighter to win by submission), Winning Round (e.g. Fighter to win in Round 1), and many more. Go check them out!

Tell a story

How Do I Bet On The Fight Tonight On Tv

Just like we always say in DFS, make sure your bets tell a story. Don’t bet a fighter to win by decision as well as the fight won’t go to decision. The only time something like this makes sense is if both bets are large underdogs.

Don’t double down on the same outcome

Just like telling a story and just like we say in our annual Super Bowl Props Guide, if you’re making small wagers don’t double down on what is essentially the same outcome.

An example of this would be betting over 4.5 rounds and betting the fight to go to a decision. Another example would be a fighter to win by decision and over 2.5 rounds. Pick the one you’re most confident in and stick with that.

Line shopping

I will continue to talk about line shopping until the day I die. Different books -- for many reasons -- have different betting lines for the same event. I looked at a few sportsbooks in New Jersey at the main event of the night (Poirier / Hooker) and compared the odds. The best is in green; the worst is in red.

I know it is only a difference in a few cents, but over time the cents add up. You should be line shopping at all the sportsbooks you have for every wager you make.

NBA betting can be exciting, but it can also be very complicated. With that said, how do you find the best NBA bets for tonight? The good news is that you don’t have to spend hours trying to figure out where to place your bets.

Most experts are looking at one or two statistical categories in order to determine which teams are the best NBA bets for tonight. However, we all know that you can’t really expect to win every single game that you bet on. Therefore, you need to find the most profitable teams and stick with them throughout the entire NBA season.

Before you choose which team to bet on, you should consider the following criteria. First, you should figure out how much you can afford to bet on each team. If you are betting on a popular team that has relatively little chance of winning the NBA title, then you will probably lose more money than if you bet on a team that is more likely to win the title.

Another important criteria is whether or not the team is popular. If you choose to bet on a team that isn’t very popular, then you may be betting against yourself. For example, if you bet on the San Antonio Spurs to win the NBA title, you would probably be wrong. Although they are a popular team, they may not be quite as good as their reputation would lead you to believe.

Most basketball betting experts will give you advice on how much you should bet on each team in order to be successful. If you do your homework and look at the most popular teams and figure out what they do well, then you can base your basketball betting strategy around those characteristics. You can also watch NBA games so that you can get a better understanding of how the team plays and what it does well.

The bestNBA bets for tonight are the teams that have an edge in several of the categories that these experts consider. For example, the Memphis Grizzlies is a very strong defensive team. If you think that the Hawks will be able to score, then the Grizzlies are probably the best bet to win.

It is fairly easy to find out which teams are the best NBA bets for tonight, but you need to use a little bit of discretion in order to get the best picks. Some people use algorithms in order to figure out the best picks and others take advantage of information that is readily available. Once you start to understand the best NBA bets for tonight, you will find that it will be easier to choose the team that you will bet on.

How Can I Bet On The Fight Tonight

You will be able to see who the best NBA bets for tonight are, but it can still be difficult to actually bet on them. Remember that when you are choosing the team that you will bet on, you must take into account the statistical rating of the team. If you take the time to look at the different factors, then you will be able to choose the team that you think will win.
