Question 2

Is sports betting legal in Colorado?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Colorado legalized in-person and mobile sports betting November 2019 after a bill was signed by the Governor and then approved by voters. The new sports betting law went into effect May 2020 and the amount of operators are growing by the day.Colorado sports betting is allowed at approved casinos, as well as online sportsbooks who already have partnerships and licenses. Given that more than 50 operators have applied for sports betting licenses, more are likely to be approved. Colorado will likely keep handing out licenses until May and beyond, and we'll try to update these lists as much as possible.Colorado has two types of licenses to offer. The first is for brick-and-mortar casinos to offer retail and online sports betting throughout the state. The second is for online-only sportsbooks, though they still have to partner with a land-based casino before offering action.Of note, proposition betting on college games will be restricted. That means you can't bet on specific stats like the number of touchdowns for a quarterback or the amount of points for a basketball player.Daily Fantasy Sports and horse racing betting are also allowed in Colorado.

Question 11

Is sports betting legal in Pennsylvania?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Pennsylvania passed legislation to allow sports betting in 2017. Pennsylvania sportsbooks began taking bets in 2019, becoming the seventh state to officially start accepting bets and fourth to allow online sports betting.It was a gradual process for the state to officially launch sports betting as regulations were ironed out for more than a year following the repeal of PASPA in 2018. Online sports betting began May 2019 and the first physical sportsbook opened a few months later in November.Daily Fantasy Sports were always considered a game of skill in Pennsylvania and never deemed illegal, though they were formally legalized in 2017 as part of the major gambling bill.As of 2024, Pennsylvania had several physical sportsbooks, mobile apps and online betting sites, most of which offer great Pennsylvania sportsbook promos.Pennsylvania SportsbooksBetAmericaPresque Isle Downs & Casino, ErieBetAmerica Sportsbook has 50 sports betting kiosks located in the casino with half of them in the sportsbook area, which also includes a wall of TVs.

Question 12

What is a unit in sports betting?

Accepted Answer

A unit in sports betting is a measurement of the size of a given bet. It's mainly used because everyone's bankroll is different and a unit refers to the percentage of a bankroll. One unit is usually equal to one percent of a bankroll, though it's not the same for everyone.For example, if your bankroll is $1,000, one unit would be $10 or 1%. In this situation, if someone puts three units on a wager with a sports betting app, it would be a $30 bet. If you're a serious bettor, it's rarely a good idea to make a bet with more than five units unless you know something everyone else doesn't. Often, a one-unit play compared to a five-unit play is in reference to a bettor's confidence. If you really like a certain bet, you can lay five units on it.If you're not a serious bettor, units aren't a major deal because you can go into a sportsbook with a set amount of money and bet it all in one night, and also claim sportsbook promos. Maybe you won't spend all of the money on one bet, but if you keep losing, a $500 bankroll can disappear fairly quickly if you're making $100 bets.How are units used in the betting world?Units are often what matter most in the betting world, at least for bettors who share their statistics (like touts). Someone could have a 10-0 betting record and be up 10 units, but a person with a 4-6 record could be up more units if they played their cards right. That's because the four wins could all be five-unit plays, but the six losses are just one-unit bets, making the total tally up 14 units. Either that or the bettor with a 4-6 record was betting on a lot of underdogs and four of them hit.While having a good record is nice to show your friends, the amount of units you're up is what technically matters most, and it's usually what people in the betting world use.

Question 13

Is sports betting legal in West Virginia?

Accepted Answer

Yes. West Virginia passed a law to legalize and regulate sports betting in 2018 before the repeal of PASPA. Once that happened at a federal level, sports betting was immediately legal in the state with the Lottery Commission overseeing regulations and licensing in regards to in-person and online betting.More specifically, each of the five casinos in the state was allowed to hold licenses and operate three individually-branded online sites. With the maximum number of online sportsbooks set at 15, the number will continue to grow until that number is reached.

Question 16

Can you bet on sports if you are under 21 years old?

Accepted Answer

While 21 is the more common age limit, there are states in which you can bet on sports if you are at least 18 years old. Each state determines its own age requirement and there are some states with different age levels, depending on the location. In terms of sports betting, all but four states require residents to be at least 21 years old in order to take part, those being Kentucky, Montana, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Washington D.C. where the age limit is 18 and over, and anyone of age can claim sportsbook promos and use legal, regulated sportsbooks within state lines.As for gambling in general, some states may have an age limit of 18 for sports betting apps and sites, but at casinos that sell liquor, you have to be at least 21 years old.Alabama21Alaska18Arizona21Arkansas21California18, 21Colorado21Connecticut18, 21Delaware21Florida18, 21Georgia21Hawaii21Idaho18Illinois21Indiana21Iowa21Kansas21Kentucky18, 21Louisiana21Maine18Maryland21Massachusetts21MichiganIndian casinos 19, Detroit casinos 21Minnesota18Mississippi21Missouri21Montana18Nebraska18Nevada21New Hampshire18, 21New Jersey21New Mexico21New YorkSeneca casinos 21, Other casinos 18North Carolina21North Dakota21Ohio18Oklahoma18, 21Oregon18, 21Pennsylvania21Rhode Island18South Carolina21South Dakota21Tennessee21Texas21Utah21Vermont21Virginia21Washington18, 21West Virginia21Wisconsin21Wyoming21

Question 17

What do + and - mean in sports betting?

Accepted Answer

The plus (+) and minus (-) with sports betting apps, sites or retail sportsbooks can refer to either the point spread or betting odds.SpreadIn terms of the spread, the " - " always refers to the favorite and the " + " always refers to the underdog. For example, you can bet the Dallas Cowboys as a -7 point favorite to beat the Green Bay Packers or the Packers as a +7 point underdog. If you bet the Cowboys -7 and they win by more than seven points, you win your bet. Similarly, if you bet the Packers +7, as long as they lose by less than seven points or win outright, you win your bet.OddsIt's a similar case for the betting odds, though favorites don't always have a " - ," especially in sports like baseball, hockey or soccer where final results are often decided by one run or one goal. It's especially the case in soccer since matches can end in draws, whereas a winner is declared in almost every other sport because of overtime rules. However, in most cases, the favorite will have a " - " in front of its moneyline odds while the underdog will always have a "+ ." For an example of moneyline betting odds, you can bet the Eagles as a -150 favorite to win or the Giants as a +180 underdog to win. If you bet $100 on the Eagles to win at -150, you would net a payout of $166.70. If you bet on the Giants to win at +180, the payout would be $280 because they are an underdog.For something like soccer, Arsenal could be a +150 favorite against Everton as a +190 underdog, while the draw would be set at +220. In this case, the payout would be decent for every situation mainly because the teams are even and there are three possible results compared to just two for something like football (unless they go scoreless in overtime). In this case where both teams have a " + " in front of their odds, the team with the lower number is the favorite. The lower number also means a lower payout, which is always the case for betting the favorite on the moneyline. A $100 bet on Arsenal +150 would net $250, while a $100 bet on Everton +190 would net $290. Going further, a $100 bet on the draw at +220 would payout $320.

Question 18

Is sports betting legal in Maine?

Accepted Answer

Maine is on the verge of allowing top sports betting sites to legally operate. While Governor Mills signed a sports betting bill into law in May 2022 to authorize in-person betting at retail casinos and off-track betting facilities, online sportsbooks have yet to go live in the Pine Tree State. Legal online sports betting in Maine may not launch until 2024, which means it is never too early to be on the lookout for exclusive sports betting promos. In addition to sports betting and casinos being fairly new in the state, Daily Fantasy Sports and horse racing betting  are both regulated. Fantasy sports have never been an issue in Maine and were officially regulated in 2017 with fairly generic laws that include the minimum age to play being 18 years old.

Question 22

Vig Betting: What is A Vig in Gambling

Accepted Answer

In sports betting, the vig plays a crucial role in how sportsbooks generate profit. Understanding the vig is essential for making informed wagers.What is Vig in Betting?The vig, or vigorish, is the cut or amount charged by sports betting sites for taking a bet, also known as juice in slang terms. The sportsbook only collects the vig if the bettor loses the wager.For example, a point spread is often listed with -110 odds. If the Eagles are -6.5-point favorites, that would be at -110 odds. If there was no vig, it would be at even odds, or +100. With the vig, a $100 bet would result in a $190 payout. If there was no vig, a $100 bet would result in a $200 payout. This simply means if you want to win $100, you'd have to bet $110 because of the vig, and when the bet loses, that $10 goes straight to the sportsbook. Using sportsbook promos like odds boosts is a great way to lower the vig and increase your potential payout. For example, the BetMGM bonus code ROTOSPORTS offers a first bet bonus of up to $1,500 and access to numerous odds boosts and ongoing promotions. Similarly, the Caesars Sportsbook promo code ROTODYW provides a Bet $1, Double Your Winnings on Your Next 10 Bets welcome offer, along with daily bonuses and promos.Of course, not all sports betting apps are the same, and sometimes regular odds are listed at -115 or -120. As more states legalize sports betting, the variety in vigs across states will be a talking point. That's because a lot of in-person sportsbooks take a higher cut of bets than online sportsbooks, which receive more bets because they are more widely accessible. While each state has different rules, there are certain states where sportsbooks have a higher vig across the board, no matter where you wager.There are also situations where -110 odds would push to -120 or higher because that bet is getting a lot of money. If a lot of people are betting the Eagles at -6.5 (public money) and the sportsbook doesn't want to move that number to -7, they'll push the odds to -120 or -130, meaning a $100 bet would result in an even smaller payout.

Question 23

What are sports betting futures?

Accepted Answer

A futures bet is a bet on a future event, usually before a season starts. It's one of the easier terms to understand in sports betting because they deal with betting on the future. Most sports have the ability to bet on futures because every sport has a future. In the NFL, you can bet on who will win the Super Bowl, who will play in the Super Bowl and who will win each division, among other things. In college football, you can bet on who will win the Heisman and who will win each conference. In soccer, you can bet on who will win the league and who will lead the league in scoring.An example for Super Bowl odds would look something like this, though the list would go 32 teams deep: New England Patriots+500Kansas City Chiefs+700Dallas Cowboys+800San Francisco 49ers+1000Pittsburgh Steelers+1200Going further for NFL futures, you can also bet on how many touchdowns or yards a certain player will get. For example, you can make a futures bet on Tom Brady if he will throw for more than 4,500 yards or more than 30 touchdowns. Not every sportsbook has an extravagant list for futures bets, but as sports betting grows across the country, the amount of things you can bet on before the season will only grow.

Question 24

Can you bet on the Super Bowl?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Where legal, Super Bowl odds are some of the most popular wagers in the world, if not the most popular.While you can make the usual point spread and over/under bets, the Super Bowl is known for the array of proposition bets that are possible. Those have become even more popular at online sportsbooks since PASPA was overturned in 2018. Online sportsbooks like DraftKings and FanDuel have tons of prop bets available whether you want to bet on a point spread or total for a given quarter or half, or go deep and project how many yards a quarterback throws for or how many touchdowns the running back will get. Going further, those sportsbooks also have extreme props that don't relate to the game such as the over/under time for the National Anthem and the color of the post-game Gatorade poured on the winning coach.As sports betting legalizes across the country, more and more sites will come up with extravagant props for the Super Bowl because it's the most popular single event. But while that happens, Las Vegas will remain the hub for sports betting because of the endless amount of options.

Question 25

What is a hedge in sports betting?

Accepted Answer

A hedge is a method to reduce risk and secure winnings for a specified bet. It means betting the opposite side of your original wager in order to either try to middle the game, or to reduce the downside exposure of the original wager.The most popular instance of hedging is for a futures bet. For example, you bet the San Francisco 49ers at +2500 to win the Super Bowl ahead of the season and they eventually make it. Instead of riding out the +2500 and hoping the 49ers win, you could hedge that bet and take the opposing team, the Kansas City Chiefs, to win on the moneyline. While you'll get more money if you ride out the original bet, there's also more of a chance you'll come out with nothing. If you hedge and bet the Chiefs, you'll win something no matter the result of the game. Below is a breakdown of payouts in a possible hedge on Super Bowl odds:Original wager: $100 futures bet on 49ers at +2500 for a $2,600 payout ($2,500 profit)Hedge: $1,000 on Chiefs ML -150 in the Super Bowl for a $1,667 payout ($667 profit)With Hedge49ers win: $2,600 payout - $1,000 bet - $100 bet = $1,500 profitChiefs win: $1,667 payout - $1,000 bet - $100 bet = $567 profitWithout Hedge49ers win: $2,500 profitChiefs win without hedge: down $100As seen with a hedge, the bettor comes out in the positive no matter how the game goes. Without the hedge, the bettor wins a bit more after a 49ers win but also comes out negative if the Chiefs win as a favorite.Should you hedge a bet?Hedging a wager comes down to personal preference. Some people are fine with a positive payout and prefer not to risk everything, which is when a hedge makes sense. As for those who are keen on their original wager and are fine with losing money if the other side wins, there's no reason to hedge.More hedgingHedging can be done with almost any kind of bet. Futures bets may be the most popular instance to hedge, but as sports betting grows, in-play wagering with sports betting apps is also at an all-time high. If a bet isn't looking good halfway through a game, hedging with an in-play bet could be done. In this case, it's important to note all possibilities in a game because if you make the wrong hedge, you may be out two bets if something crazy happens. For example, you bet the Titans -7 to beat the Colts and they open the second quarter down 14-0. Since it's looking like the Colts will win, you decide to hedge the Colts moneyline at -150. Unfortunately, the Colts let up in the second half and the Titans eventually win on a late field goal, meaning both of your bets lose. If you want to hedge in-game, it's usually best to know what you're doing instead of blindly betting the opposite side.Another possible hedge method is in a parlay. Luckily, these are a little more straightforward than an in-game hedge. The easiest example is if your first two bets win in a three-team parlay. If you want to guarantee winnings, you simply hedge by betting the opposite side in the third bet of the parlay. You'll guarantee winnings, though the payout will be smaller.
