Betting on Hockey Line Types
Bookmaker.com offers 3 different types of lines for Hockey; The Canadian Line, 3-Way Option, and Straight Money Lines.
Hockey Betting | Canadian Line
The Canadian line is a combination of a goal and money line. The money line is a 20 cent line for straight bets.
Example: Boston Bruins +1 1/2 -140 L.A. Kings -1 1/2 +120 If betting on the Kings the customer would give-up a goal and a half and would risk $100 to win $120, the Kings must win by at least two goals. If betting on the Bruins the customer would get a goal and half but would risk $140 to win $100.
Hockey Betting | Money Line
All money line options are prices to win the game outright, according to NHL rules.
Example: Boston Bruins +110 vs. L.A. Kings -130
If you select the Bruins to win the game, betting $100 would win you $110. If you select the Kings to win, you would need to risk $130 to win $100.
Hockey Betting | Totals Over/Under
Example: Bruins +1 1/2 -140 5 OVER -130 Kings -1 1/2 +120
As well as having favorites on sides you also have favorites on totals, in this example over the total of five goals is indicated as the favorite in which case the customer would lay $130 to win $100. If betting on the game to go under five goals the customer goes with the underdog so he/she receives a larger return in this case risking $100 to win $110. If there is no money line indicated the total has a "FLAT" line or -110 whether betting over or under, in which case the customer would lay $110 to win $100 either way. When you wager on total goals, if the score falls on the number in this case five, it will be "no action".
