What is a push in sports betting? – The Athletic

Posted: January 28, 2022 at 12:00 am

Just as there are ties in sports, sports betting has ties as well. Pushes are the ties of the sports betting world. They feel just about as satisfying as ties in any sport. Not awful, but not good either. At the end of the day, its a lot of sweating and stress just to get your initial investment back.

When a bet pushes, its as if nothing ever happened. The bet would essentially be canceled. The money you put down on the bet is returned and its like nothing ever happened.

A push happens when the betting line matches the exact outcome. If a spread is eight and the favored team wins by eight, thats a push. If a total is 54 and the final score is 30-24, thats a push.

Pushes are why lines with a .5 point, goal or run exist. Compare a baseball game with a run total of 8 to a line of 8.5. In both cases the over needs nine runs or more to win. The only difference is the under bet gets a win if there are eight runs scored and the total is 8.5. If the total is 8, both sides push with eight runs scored.

Not every bet can have a push. A moneyline bet, for example, is all about predicting the result so there cant be a tie on the bet. Either the team you bet on won or it didnt. Even in sports with ties, the tie is an outcome included in moneyline bets so even a tie wouldnt be a push. The exception to this is a Tie No Bet option that youll find if you dig a bit deeper into a sportsbooks offerings. This is available in soccer or hockey (where it is called Tie No Bet Regular Time). This specific bet type provides you insurance in case of a tie in soccer, at the cost of your odds, and essentially gives you a push if the game ends in a tie.

With that exception out of the way, pushes are possible in totals and spreads, but not traditional moneyline bets.

Sports betting: The 49ers have had the Rams number lately – The Philadelphia Inquirer

Posted: January 27, 2022 at 11:59 pm

Had to laugh when it was pointed out that San Francisco quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo is 15-4 against the spread when his team is the underdog.

More like his defense is 15-4 ATS, was a common response.

This season, the 49ers are 4-1 against the spread as underdogs, with more impressively four wins outright. Theyve beaten Dallas, Green Bay, and the Rams twice.

The Rams, who will host Sundays NFC championship, blew a 17-point lead to San Fran on Jan. 9 and nearly had one of the all-time playoff gags on Sunday before beating Tampa Bay at the buzzer. They were just 7-9 against the number as a favorite, but covered four of their last five at home. The exception being the game against the 49ers.

Three other things to know about the 49ers-Rams (Sunday, 6:30 p.m., Fox29):

The 49ers have won the last six meetings. The last two played in Los Angeles were on walk-off field goals by Robbie Gould, who drilled the winning kick at the buzzer Saturday night to beat Green Bay.

The Rams have been favored in the last four meetings by an average of about 3.5 points, which is where this Sundays line generally opened. The over/under is 46.5.

Garoppolo is 4-1 in his career as a playoff starter. He has two touchdown passes and five interceptions in those five games, and is on the verge of taking the 49ers to the Super Bowl for the second time in three years. Thats hard to do.

The Chiefs opened at -6.5 in some places, -7.5 in others. That could be a crucial difference for both bettor and bookie. The line had settled into Chiefs -7 by Monday.

The big move was in the over/under, which opened at 50.5, but quickly jumped to 54 shortly after Sunday nights track meet when the Chiefs eliminated the Bills, 42-36, in overtime.

Three other things to know about Sundays game (3 p.m., CBS3):

Kansas City is 11-1 after starting the season 3-4. At one point, the Chiefs were +1600 to win the Super Bowl. They are the clear favorites today.

K.C.s only loss in that span was at Cincinnati on Jan. 2. The Bengals were 3.5-point dogs and won it with a 20-yard field goal by Evan McPherson in the final seconds. The Chiefs led, 28-17, at the half, and the over (51) hit early in the third quarter.

The Bengals have covered their last five as road underdogs with outright wins at Pittsburgh (+3), at Baltimore (+6), at Denver (+3), and at Tennessee (+4). They lost at Cleveland in the final week of the season while resting most of their regulars, but still covered the +5.5-point spread.

BetMGM/via SportsOddsHistory.com

Feb. 8, 2021, vs. Jan. 24, 2022

Cincinnati: Was 80-1, is 8-1

Kansas City: Was 6-1, is approximately 1-1

L.A. Rams: Was 12-1, is 2-1

San Francisco: Was 16-1, is 9-2

READ MORE: Thats on us to continue to build: Eagles GM Howie Roseman assesses Jalen Reagor, wide receiver corps

NFL: The Chiefs are +120 to win the Super Bowl, but Patrick Mahomes to win Super Bowl MVP is +180.

NFL: A money-line parlay on the four winning teams this weekend would have paid out somewhere around 30-1. Had the Bills (up three with 13 seconds left and kicking off) beaten the Chiefs, that payout would have been about 37-1.

College basketball: A FanDuel customer turned a $10 four-team parlay (in-game) into $64,170 with four college basketball underdogs on Saturday. Three needed to win in overtime on the road, including Army erasing a 27-point deficit in the first half to shock Navy.

NHL: Just how rough has it been for the Canadiens? On Jan. 1, they played at Florida and the Panthers were -650. It was the highest line for a hockey game many in the industry had ever seen. Over the weekend, Montreal played at Colorado and the line was even higher; the Avs were -700. Montreal forced overtime, but Colorado won it. It was the Avalanches 11th win in 12 games. Montreal had eight wins all season entering Monday.

NHL: File this away for later in the week: Overs are 18-6-1 in Florida Panthers home games. Their next is Thursday against Vegas, which has an 11-5-0 mark for the overs in road games. Florida entered the week second in the league in goals per game (4.00). Vegas is sixth (3.46).

There were two NFL games on Saturday, 11 in the NHL, three in the NBA, 130-plus in mens college basketball, plus the Aussie Open, and a full UFC card.

Days like today are the ones you just want to get through no matter how as a bookmaker, tweeted Rex Beyers, risk manager of SuperBook in Las Vegas. The informed players have a significant edge based solely on sheer volume of games where we have to put up a number and wont have all the pertinent info.

How Will Taxes on Canada Sports Betting Work for Bettors & Operators? – The Action Network

Posted: at 11:59 pm

When private sportsbooks enter the Ontario online sports betting market this year in Canadas largest market, it will generate money through tax revenue from operators.

But perhaps the best benefit of winning bets as a Canadian citizen is not having to pay taxes on your earnings. Citizens are only relegated to report their earnings and pay taxes on the interest accrued from any money from winning bets. This only applies to citizens who wager recreationally and not as a full-time occupation.

Private sportsbooks, on the other hand, are required to pay a standard 20% effective tax rate, which is an average rate across Canada. New Jersey is at 13%; Pennsylvania much higher at 36%.

Fortunately, Canadas tax rate is well below New Yorks 51% rate, which can give operators a sigh of relief as they conduct their business in another major market.

According to the Vixio Gambling Compliance, Ontario online sports betting can generate almost $989 million in gross revenue in its inaugural year.

Thats a very lofty projection. New Jersey sportsbooks have generated $1.6B in gross revenue since legalizing in 2018, and NJ is now the U.S. leader in sports betting.

Pennsylvania (13M), which is closer in population to Ontario (14.5M), has done $889M in gross revenue by sportsbooks over the last three years.

NJ has generated $202M in tax revenue for the state since legalizing in 2018 with a 13% tax rate for online bets.

The prevalence of offshore betting has been an issue for a long time across Canada, which played a part in the decision to grant private sportsbooks to operate in Ontario.

NASCAR Wants to Drive More Betting on its Races And Not Just Who Wins Them – Covers

Posted: at 11:59 pm

NASCAR is aiming to emphasize matchup-related betting this season, as the organization looks to increase overall wagering on the sport.

NASCAR had an entertaining problem on its hands last season: two of its drivers were unhappy with each other, and their frustrations were spilling onto the racetrack.

The feud that bloomed between Chase Elliott and Kevin Harvick was indeed the talk of the sport for weeks. The timing of the spat even meant that more intrigue was injected into NASCARs playoffs, driving up interest among fans and media at a crucial time.

In theory, then, the interest of recreational sports bettors should have been piqued as well. An event involving two guys who dont like each other is the foundation for so much retail and online sports betting that it should have been an easy win for NASCAR, which has eyed wagering as a way to attract new fans to the sport.

And yet, the traditional method of betting NASCAR picking the winner of a race out of a field of 30-plus drivers doesnt intuitively lend itself to a two-person feud. Neither Elliott nor Harvick won a race after their ill feelings arose at Bristol last September, although Elliott did progress further into the playoffs, wishing Harvick "a merry offseason" as he did so.

This is something NASCAR is seeking to remedy this coming season by pushing featured" matchups.While sportsbooks already offer driver-versus-driver wagering, NASCAR's plan would emphasize a pairing like Elliott and Harvick and involve more familiar betting markets, such as moneyline and point spread-like options that are so popular for football and other sports.

Matt Stallknecht, NASCARs senior manager of sports betting, said that far more niche sports than stock-car racing saw big jumps in wagering in the U.S. during the earlier days of the COVID-19 pandemic, including Korean baseball and table tennis.

And the reason they did so well is because those sports are structured in a way, and the betting offerings on those sports are structured in such a way, that are very compelling to the end user, Stallknecht told the media on Wednesday. So with things like the matchups and spread, we're finding ways and we're learning a lot about how can we take our existing products and put a betting tradition thats a little bit more compelling on top of it."

The emphasis on matchups is part of the strategy that the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing has for growing the amount of wagering on the sport. And by growing its handle, NASCAR hopes it will increase interest and, as a result, its total fanbase and viewership, which remain concentrated in the southern United States.

We want to get folks that are following the sport into that mindset of thinking about not just the race winner, Stallknecht said.

NASCAR is now entering its 2022 season with four authorized gaming operators as partners Barstool Sportsbook, BetMGM, Fubo Sportsbook, and WynnBET and those relationships are bearing fruit. Namely, the organization's share of U.S. sports-wagering handle climbed to around 0.25% last year compared to about 0.1% for 2020.

And as we increase the partnerships, I anticipate that that trend will continue, said Joseph Solosky, managing director of sports betting at NASCAR. Instead of trying to take a piece of the pie away from other sports, we want to grow the pie.

As an example of that overall growth, Solosky pointed to a handle-boosting promotion Barstool Sportsbook ran last year that provided a free bet to players on a Kansas City Chiefs game if they also wagered beforehand on NASCARs Kansas race.

Still, the drive for more handle centers around the drama of featured matchups, the vision for which involves bookmakers continuing to offer straight-up options, but also something similar to the point spreads used for various stick-and-ball sports.

Instead of points, though, a NASCAR spread would be based on the number of positions between the drivers at the end of some or all of the race, such as Elliott opening as a 1.5-place favorite in a matchup against Harvick. If Elliott then were to finish fourth in a race and Harvick sixth, Elliott backers would win their bet.

The addition of same-race parlays, similar to same-game parlays, is being discussed too, in which a single wager could be made on the outcome of several different bets during an event. In-game or in-race wagering is another avenue of growth being eyed by NASCAR, although that could take more time to catch on.

For now, we're really taking that crawl-before-you-walk-before-you-run approach and seeing how the featured matchup and head-to-head betting is perceived by the market in the first few months, Solosky said.

NASCARs approach was developed with the help of conversations the organization had with sharp bettors, some of whom didnt become interested in wagering on the sport until the pandemic. Armed with those insights, among other things, the association is aiming to structure betting on the sport in a way that can attract new faces.

Those plans will really start being put to the test again on February 6, with the Busch Light Clash that will be held for the first time at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Some sportsbooks already have odds up for the exhibition event, which NASCAR sees as a good sign.

However, the winner of the event is not the only thing on which NASCAR would like to see wagering.

"I think with the matchup content if we can organically introduce that type of thinking in the right places, not only can we increase the handle on the sport, but I think that we can get fans to watch the sport in a different way," Stallknecht said. "And I think that's even more important than anything to sports betting."

Maryland bill aims to restrict betting licences near sports venues – iGaming Business

Posted: at 11:59 pm

The Maryland Senate is to consider a bill that would restrict the awarding of sports betting licences to facilities located close to a sports venue that is already licensed.

Filed last week and sponsored by Senators Ronald Young and Michael Hough, Senate Bill 297 would prohibit the states Sports Wagering Application Review Commission from issuing licences to venues within a 15mile radius of a Class A1 or A2 sports betting facility in Allegany County, Cecil County, or Worcester County.

SB 297 would also prohibit the awarding of licences to venues within 10 miles of a Class B-1 or B-2 licensed sports betting facility in Calvert County, Carrol County, Frederick County and Washington County.

In addition, licences would not be issued to venues within a 1.5-mile radius of Class A-1 or A-2 sports wagering facility located in any other county, nor any other Class B1 or B2 sports betting venue.

Should the bill gain approval, the new rules would come into effect from June 1 this year.

Marylandofficially opened its regulated sports wagering market last monthafter state Governor Larry Hogan placed the first legal bet at MGM National Harbor.

The Maryland Lottery and Gaming Commissions (MLGCC) Sports Wagering Application Review Commission (SWARC)issued five sports betting licencesto land-based casinos in November.

Penn Nationals Hollywood Casino in Perryville; Caesars Entertainments Horseshoe Casino in Baltimore; Cordish Companies Live! Casino & Hotel in Hanover; the MGM National Harbor in Oxon Hill and Churchill Downs Ocean Downs Casino in Berlin all secured licenses.

The MLGCC cleared the quintet to receive licenses earlier in 2021.

New Jersey leads the nation in online sports betting. Here comes New York. – POLITICO – POLITICO

Posted: January 24, 2022 at 10:00 am

In its first weekend, the four online sports operators in New York took in $150 million in wagers, and 650,000 unique player accounts were set up which grew to 1.2 million accounts by the end of the first week, according to GeoComply, a software provider that ensures location for sports bettors. Thats more than New Jersey and neighboring Pennsylvania combined for the same period.

And with twice the population of New Jersey, New York, with its 20 million residents, is likely to eventually eclipse the title New Jersey has held since 2019 as the sports betting capital of the nation after its revenue surpassed Nevada and its sprawling Las Vegas sports books.

"With a product as we have, I would expect we leapfrog over New Jersey, said state Sen. Joseph Addabbo (D-Queens), who sponsored the sports betting measure in New York. But it is about sustainability and the long term."

Its taken four years for sports betting to go from a dark market vice, relegated for most Americans to bar bookmakers and risky offshore gaming sites, to an accepted pastime in the vast majority of the country.

And New Jersey was the most aggressive to get into the market after winning and losing a number of lawsuits along the way, helping it to cement its national lead as other states sought to catch up.

Sports betting has been legalized in more than 30 states, with 18 having some form of online wagering. It has quickly become a cash cow for states and local governments followingthe 2018 Supreme Court ruling overturning a federal ban that essentially gave Nevada a legal monopoly on the industry.

In New Jersey, the amount bet on sports exceeded $1.3 billion last October alone, a national record, and all but $100 million of it came from online wagering, even with the state's nine casinos in Atlantic City and three racetracks offering in-person betting.

In New York, four upstate casinos have offered in-person betting since 2019, but the revenue has been paltry compared to the early weeks of online betting.

And the industry is in its infancy.

California is eyeing a referendum in November to likely decide whether it will enter the burgeoning sector, and Ohio is expected to have online sports betting in 2023.

In two of the other largest states, Florida and Texas, sports betting remains uncertain. A federal judge last month rejected Florida's bid to legalize it through the Seminole Tribe of Florida, leaving the state also with the possibility of a referendum in November. In Texas, lawmakers might reconsider it in 2023 when state lawmakers return to Austin.

Goldman Sachs last March estimated that online sports betting and internet gambling revenues in the U.S. may grow from $900 million a year to $39 billion by 2033.

New York's entry into the mobile industry may serve as a key guide of the room for growth.

GeoComply found that just 9 percent of New York players had placed bets previously in New Jersey and that nearly 88 percent of New York customers were brand new to the sites.

In other words, there appeared to be enough interest in New York to limit the impact in New Jersey.

The momentum of New Yorks sports betting launch has continued, and it is mostly homegrown, said Lindsay Slader, the company's managing director of gaming, in a statement.

Indeed, New Jersey averaged 12.6 million transactions the two weekends before New York's launch and 13.1 million the two weekends since, the company said.

"New Yorks launch of mobile/online sports betting is likely to only impact patrons living close enough to the New Jersey border to make travel from New York to New Jersey for the purpose of wagering convenient," said Jane Bokunewicz, the faculty director at the Institute of Gaming, Hospitality and Tourism at Stockton University in Galloway, N.J., in an email.

How sustainable the rush in New York will be is uncertain. The state expects tax revenue to grow from $375 million in coming fiscal year to $518 million by 2027. And, like with regular casino gambling, the ultimate size of the market for sports betting could be limited.

Still, New Jersey said it is well-positioned to stay competitive with New York for one key reason, in particular: taxes.

New York's tax rate on mobile sports betting providers is 51 percent, among the highest in the nation, compared to 14.25 percent in New Jersey.

And New Jersey's sports wagering revenue, which is what is left after payouts to winners, has showed no signs of slowing: It doubled between 2020 and 2021 to a nation-leading $816 million, state records show.

The lower tax rate should give New Jersey operators an opportunity to offer new incentives to lure back New York customers, said James Plousis, chair of the New Jersey Casino Control Commission.

"Theres no doubt about it, it will have some impact, but I think were well positioned," he said. "The tax environment in New jersey is much better than in New York."

For Atlantic City, which struggled for years after casinos began opening in other East Coast states, mobile sports betting and other internet gambling games New Jersey has allowed give the resort town another way to build revenue without having to draw gamblers to its hotels.

In 2021, internet gambling and sports betting represented 46 percent of the total gaming revenue in New Jersey, putting it nearly on par with all the revenue the casinos brought in from traditional gaming, records show.

Perhaps the biggest impact so far has been in the physical sportsbooks in New Jersey. Attendance has been down at the Meadowlands Racetrack sportsbook, a mere 10 miles from midtown Manhattan and by far the largest one in the state.

Owner Jeff Gural, who also owns a sportbooks and horse track in the Southern Tier region of New York, said he expected more of a hit on the mobile side of the business rather than the in-person toll side at the Meadowlands.

But he also wondered how long New York's rise will last. Many customers were probably lured in by big promotions, such as $300 in free bets offered by Caesars.

"I think we have to see what happens six months from now when all the free money disappears," Gural said.

Town of Chesapeake Beach passes ordinance to collect tax revenue on sports betting – WTOP

Posted: at 10:00 am

The Chesapeake Beach Town Council passed an ordinance Friday that allows the town to collect tax revenue on brick and mortar sports betting.

The Chesapeake Beach Town Council passed an ordinance Friday that allows the town to collect tax revenue on brick and mortar sports betting.

The ordinance expands the Admission and Amusement Tax for the Town of Chesapeake Beach to include Sports Betting for Class A1, A2, Class B1, and Class B2 licenses.

In November of 2020, town residents voted against sports betting in Chesapeake Beach by a 2 to 1 margin.

The Chesapeake Beach Town Council acted to prevent expanding gambling activities after the election.

Its my opinion that its the fiduciary responsibility of this body to pass this ordinance so we can maintain our revenues and continue to provide world class services to the good people of Chesapeake Beach, said Mayor Pat Mahoney.

Maryland pre-empted the town allowing sports betting with one license for a brick and mortar facility within the municipal limits of Chesapeake Beach, Mahoney said during the town council meeting.

In a 5-to-2 vote in November, the Sports Wagering Application Review Commission awarded the first Maryland in-person sports betting licenses.

Sports Betting Tips To Make More Successful Bets – Eye On Annapolis – Eye On Annapolis

Posted: at 10:00 am

A lot goes into making the right prediction and turning a profit, including setting achievable objectives, learning the basics, and being selective with wagers. Furthermore, players need to set aside a betting budget and use only legitimate apps to succeed.

Overall, remembering all the informal sports betting rules can be challenging. If you need some help with this task yourself, take a look at our list of tips below:

First, you should choose the best gambling platform for placing your bets. A bookmaker is an organization that offers its services to the public. It allows users to place bets on various events or activities and also pays out winners if their chosen team or player wins. The bookie sets the odds for every game in accordance with their own profitability and is not bound by any particular rules or regulations.

When choosing a bookmaker, make sure you go through all the available options and only choose one that offers competitive odds. Also, be careful with the country they are operating from some countries have strict legal restrictions on betting, so make sure to check them as well.

One of the most popular options is the online sportsbook, which allows you to place your wagers easily and quickly. Another advantage is that you can access it from anywhere and anytime, making it a convenient solution for those often on the go. However, avoid using unofficial sites that promise big payouts without having any real data about their odds.

A better option might be the mobile betting app, which provides more opportunities for making predictions and placing bets on the go, regardless of your location for example, here, you can browse the best UK betting apps for Android & iOS. Keep in mind that certain apps require you to register before accessing them, and establishing your account can take a while.

By using such an app, you can easily track your progress, which can help you make better decisions. Finally, some organizations offer exclusive bonuses or promotions to new players, which can be pretty helpful when trying to beat the competition or break even on your bets.

The next thing to do is perform extensive research on your chosen sport and its participants. To this end, you can use online resources, such as sports betting blogs, podcasts, or YouTube channels. You should also look for the most recent updates about the competitors performance. Learn about their season statistics, past match results, and recent developments in the field of betting.

Many online sources offer valuable data, such as statistics from past games, injury reports, and lineups for upcoming matches. Also, watch some of the games live to see whats going on for yourself and whether you think your chosen team has a chance of winning. This will help you better understand how to proceed with your wagers.

Although the odds might be one of the most critical factors in your overall success rate, they are not necessarily a good indicator of whether you will win or lose. In fact, choosing a team based on their overall performance might be just as effective as choosing one based on stats alone.

For example, if two teams have similar odds, but one has been performing significantly better than the other in recent matches, it might be wiser to choose them over the other team despite their lower odds of winning. Overall, knowing how to calculate odds is not enough; you need to factor in additional variables as well.

If you are new to sports betting, you must start small before moving to larger bets with higher stakes involved. This way, you can learn how to read trends in statistics and spot key indicators of winnings without risking too much money at once. Of course, once you get comfortable with this process, feel free to start raising your stakes if you like what you see so far!

Most sports bettors agree that setting a gambling budget is essential, as it helps them avoid overspending and stop when they are winning or losing too much money. If you have a limited budget, its good to stick to it. In the case of most players, it is better to drop out of the game before you lose everything than to keep playing in hopes of getting a winning streak.

The essential advice on sports betting that anyone could give you is to remember that it is just a game. If you want to boost your adrenaline rush and get the most out of your sports watching experience, by all means, try it. But if you want to make money this way, its best to keep things in perspective and stick to playing for fun.

So there you have it, some of the most valuable tips for sports betting success. Use this knowledge well, and youll be a successful sports bettor in no time!

In the end, it is up to you to decide whether you want to try your luck at sports betting. It can be fun, but it also needs a lot of time and effort to master. If you have a set budget and only use the best apps for sports betting, you can have a great time with this form of entertainment. After all, there are very few things as exciting as placing bets on your favorite team and waiting to see if they win or lose.

Remember, a sports gamblers success and failure are in large measure up to them, so stick to these tips, and you cant go wrong.
