If you never,How to bet on Soccer. Articles ever in your life have made an sportsbook soccer bet, well this is the chance you have to learn how it works, its actually really simple (I mean is not rocket science) but you need to be smart to make an sportsbook soccer bet and of course you need to read as much as you can, try to do some math add some numbers, get history about both teams or simple watch the games and see how they play to make actually see if the team you are risking your money on is at least good or has more chance to win the match, because as all sports anything can happened. We are going to take some examples from a well known sportsbook source to make some examples and see the parts of the sportsbook soccer odds from Looselines.ag

As an example of the sportsbook lines we are going to take a current one from the world cup between Netherlands and Costa Rica, the game will be tomorrow, so if you feel like it just visit Looselines and take some action (action means make some sportsbook bets)


COSTA RICA Money line +570 Goal line +1 -105

NETHERLANDS Money line -200 Goal Line -1 -115

DRAW Money line +255

Total over/under 2.5 ov +108

You can choose different sides (are the different types of picks you get on each sportsbook bet):

Money line: money line is simply odds for the favorite or underdog express in money. When you pick the money line and make an sportsbook bet, you are taking that pick to win the match (no matter how many points or goals they score) they have to win during the official time set for the wager (this is why you need to ask or read about). So for example if I take Costa Rica on the Money Line at +570, I'm taking Costa Rica to win the match no matter the points or score. Also the +570 means they are the underdog and if I bet $100.00 wager (based on) I get back $570.00.


Goal line: the goal line is related to the amount of points or goals score during the official time of the game (if I'm not mistaken is 90 min and doesn't include extra times or penalties, you many want to check that with Looselines Sportsbook). In this sportsbook wager you are taking action on the amount of goals the favorite is going to win over the underdog and how many goals the underdog can loose under. Lets explain this: if you see the goal line has a + sign and -sign (- sign is for favorite and +sign is for underdog) if you take for example Netherlands on the goal line at -1 this means they have to win for 2 or more goals to win your sportsbook bet (the -115 means you need to risk $115 to win 100), but if you take Costa Rica you have 2 chances: 1) if Costa Rica wins you win the sportsbook bet, and if for example Costa Rica loose for 1 goal thats consider a tie or push so you get the amount you risk back.


Draw is very simple, this means you are making an sportsbook bet that the match will end up in a draw or a tie, express as well as the sportsbook moneyline (read moneyline explanation on above).


Total: if you are taking the total, you are betting on the total amount of points, or in this case goals score in the game (remember official times). You can make the sportsbook pick to go over or under. So for example if you take the game to go over 2.5 over this means the total game goals at the end of the official time must be at least 3 for you to win the bet, if you take the under is just the opposite.


Hope this explains a bit the different sides of the sportsbook bets you can take in soccer and help you maybe in the future for you to make some great sportsbook bets and win some additional cash. Of course you can visit Looselines Sportsbook to get even more detail information. Enjoy the action.
