College and WNBA basketball games must go at least 35 minutes to have action. NBA games must go at least 43 minutes to have action.

For wagering purposes, winners and losers are determined by the final score (including overtime), provided that the basketball game has gone the minimum time as specified above. If a basketball game is suspended after the minimum time has been played and not resumed the same day, then regardless of whether the NBA game is completed at a later date, the score when the basketball match is halted will determine the betting results.

If play is suspended before the minimum time has been reached and not resumed the same day, all bets will be scored as 'no action' and all monies refunded

All wagers on the basketball game and all wagers on the second half will include overtime scoring.

• Basketball Props;

More basketball rules from Wikipedia and examples.

Straight Wagers

This wager is made when you choose a team and the point spread. The cost of the wager is 10/11 or $110 to win $100.

Example:

Toronto Raptors +6

Chicago Bulls -6

If the straight wager is on the Bulls -6 then the Bulls must win by 6 or more points for the wager to win.

If the straight wager is on the Raptors +6 then the Raptors cannot lose by more than 6 points for the wager to win.

If the basketball match lands on 6 pts then the game is a "push" and will result in "no action".

Totals Over/Under

This is a wager on the combined scores (total) of a basketball game (over or under the posted line). The cost of the wager is 10/11.

Example:

Dallas Mavericks

Indiana Pacers TOTAL IS 149

If you place a wager for UNDER 149, the combined total score of both teams must fall UNDER 149 pts.

If you place a wager for OVER 149, the combined total score of both teams must go OVER 149 pts.

If the combined total score falls on 149 points the wager is a "PUSH" and there is "NO ACTION".

Money Line Wagering

With this type of wager you wager which team is going to win. Disregarding the point spread.

Example:

Orlando Magic -270

Houston Rockets +210

If you wager on Orlando -270 you lay $270 to win $100.

If you wager on Houston +210 you lay $100 to win $210.

Parlays

This play is a selection of teams in no particular order, in one play. All teams must win by the point spread margin. The more amount of teams, the greater the payoff.

Example:

2 team parlay for $100

Portland Trail Blazers +4

San Antonio Spurs -10

The payout in a 2 team parlay is 13/5 this means you are risking $100 to win $260. In case of a tie or no action the parlay will revert to the lower level payoff, except in a 2 team parlay where a tie reverts to a straight bet.

Teasers

This is a wager in which 2 to 7 teams are selected together in one wager with an adjusted point spread. In a teaser you can add points to the sides or mix both sides and totals adding or subtracting to the totals. If one selection loses the teaser is considered a loss.

Example:

2 team teaser 5 pts for $100

Lakers +4+5 pts = the teased line is now +9

Knicks -3+5 pts = the teased line is now +2

The payout in a 2 team teaser for 5 pts is 13/10 In this case you will lay $130 to win $100.
