Online Spread Betting

Online spread betting is when the casino chooses a certain spread on a game - it could be the difference of how badly a team is going to get beaten (for ex.15 points), or how many goals are scored in a certain game. Online spread betting is hugely popular in the UK where you can bet on certain aspects of your favorite football or other match and watch it from the comfort of your own home.

Online spread betting is used in many different sports. Depending on the sport, there could be different ways that a spread's odds are layed out. In almost all sports commonly, you can bet on the difference between the scores of the two teams. In games like football, you can also do "over-under" on bets like how many goals will be scored. For instance, the sports betting site may say they think arenal and manchester will score 3 goals in their match up. You have to then choose if i will be over or under 3 goals, and if you are correct you win.

In spread betting in the UK, normally the number is notched at a 3.2 or something similar (decimals) so you can pick all possible numbers... in that case 3 is the low and 4 is the high.. it's not like Manchester and Arsenal will combine for 3.2 goals, and this is how the bets work out so well. The sportsbook's job is to give the best spread possible therefore making it a tough decision to go over or under. If a spread is not on right, savvy gamblers could take the casino for a lot of money on any given day, so online betting spreads are very carefully calculated, and sometimes borrowed from the experts at land casinos.
