Action Points
This type of wager is available for football and basketball. This is for the bettor who not only can predict which team will win the game, but by how many points. Your wager is capped from 1 point to a maximum of 10 points, and the wager you risk cannot exceed your available balance. On this type of wager, you risk $110 for every $100 wagered.
Example:
Boston Celtics |
195 |
Cleveland Cavaliers |
-5 |
Suppose you wager $100 a point on the Cleveland Cavaliers and ask for a cap of 10 points. Cleveland must win by at least 5 points, and for every point over the point spread of 5 that they win by, you win $100. You have the chance of winning between $100 and $1,000. If Cleveland wins by 9 points, your net winnings would be $400. On the other hand, if Cleveland fails to cover the point spread, you risk $110 for every point that they fall short of the 5-point spread. You can also use totals either over or under, or the underdog in the game.
Money Lines
With this type of wager, you pick which team is going to win, disregarding the point spread.
Example:
If you wager on Miami -280 you lay $280 to win $100.
If you wager on Detroit +240 you lay $100 to win $240.
Parlays
This play is a selection of multiple teams (2-10 teams) in no particular order, all in one play. All teams must win by the point spread margin. The more teams in the parlay, the greater the payoff.
Example:
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. (Remember, you cannot lose more than your original risk amount in a parlay. So if you had a 2 team parlay for $100 with a PUSH and it reverted to a straight bet, it would be risking $100 to win $91)
Teasers
This is a wager in which 2 to 4 teams are selected together in one play with an adjusted point spread. In a teaser you can add points to the sides or mix both sides and totals adding to or subtracting from the totals. If one selection loses or pushes the teaser is considered a loss.
Example: 2 team teaser 5pts 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 with 5 points is 10/12 In this case you will lay $120 to win $100.
“The only exception is on any two team teaser where a game is either postponed, cancelled, ends in a \'push\' or is refunded for whatever reason (E.g., change of venue), your wager will be refunded regardless of whether your other selection wins or loses.”
"If" Bets
“If” Bets allow the customer to make a second wager pending a win on the first selection. “If” Bets must be made on one call, and the second part of the “if” wager can exceed the amount of the first selection. There are two types of “If” wagers, “If Action” and “If-Win-Only”. In an “If Action” wager, the bottom half of the wager will have “Action” on any scenario except a LOSS from the top. In other words, you will have a valid wager in the event that the top part of the “If Action”: Wins, Ties or Cancels. In an “If-Win-Only” wager, the top part of the wager MUST WIN, in order to have action on the bottom half. If it does not WIN, there is no action to the bottom half. You cannot use a spread to a money line or a money line to a spread in this type of wager.
Example:
Dallas Cowboys |
-5 |
$110 to win $100 |
IF (If Action) |
Carolina Panthers |
+4 |
$110 to win $100 |
If the Cowboys lose, the wager stops there and is scored a loser -$110; if the Cowboys win +$100 the wager continues to the Panthers wager; if the Panthers win, the wager is a $200 winner; if the Panthers lose the wager becomes a $10 loss.
Reverse Wagers
Reverse wagers are double action IF bets.
Part A: |
Cowboys |
-5 |
$110 to win $100 |
IF (win, tie or cancel) |
Dolphins |
-14 |
$110 to win $100 |
Part B: |
Dolphins |
-14 |
$110 to win $100 |
IF (win, tie or cancel) |
Cowboys |
-5 |
$110 to win $100 |
+400
One win, one loss
-120
Both teams lose
-220
One Pushes
+200
In the event of a PUSH on one side and a loss on the other, you would have double action on the other side of the wager. For example, the Dolphins win the game by 14 points (A PUSH) but the Cowboys do not win by 5 or more points, the wager would result in a total loss of -220 because the Cowboys would lose twice due to the PUSH.
Circled Games
- The maximum limit for any CIRCLED game is $1,000.
- CIRCLED games are not allowed in hook-ups. This means straight wagers only.
- You cannot buy points on a CIRCLED game.
- The reason a game is put into a CIRCLE is due to an unknown status of a key player or players. Once the information about the player or players is released, we will release the CIRCLE allowing normal wagering to resume.

3. All Internet transactions are logged and backed-up regularly. In any and all cases of dispute, both management and the player agree that the log backup shall serve as the final authority in the dispute and that all wagers will be adjusted accordingly. Claims must be lodged within five days from the date the wager was made. No claims will be honored after this five-day period. Players are responsible for verifying the accuracy of all account transactions. In order to log an internet claim the customer must provide a valid ticket# which is given for every internet play.

OPTIONS TO KEEP BALL
- Teams will have two options to keep the ball after scoring:
- Traditional onside kick (any time during game) or
- 4th and 15 conversion from own 25-yard line (4thquarter only)
DOUBLE FORWARD PASS
- If a team completes a forward pass behind the line of scrimmage, that team may throw a second forward pass, as long as the ball has not crossed the line of scrimmage
- Once the ball has passed the line of scrimmage, no forward passes are permitted
- The first pass may fall incomplete rather than becoming a fumbled lateral.

Aussie Rules

- All Aussie Rules matches must go at least 80 minutes to have action, except for pre-season matches that are scheduled to play less time.
- If an Aussie Rules match is postponed for more than 48 hours from its original starting time, all bets on the match will be void/no action and the stake will be returned to your account.

The eligible player who compiles the most votes after the 22-round season will be declared the winner. Any player who was suspended during the season is not eligible to win the award. If that player polls the most votes, the following eligible player is declared the winner. In the event of a tie (dead-heat), both players will be declared the winner.
USFL Rules
Extra points
When teams score a touchdown in the USFL, they\'ll have the option to attempt a one-, two- or even three-point conversion. Teams will receive:
- One point for a kick made with the ball snapped from the 15-yard line
- Two points for a scrimmage play from the two-yard line that successfully crosses the goal line
- Three points for a scrimmage play from the 10-yard line that successfully crosses the goal line
As a result, a team trailing by nine points can still tie the game with a touchdown (and a three-point conversion), while an 18-point lead is still a two-possession game.
Onside kicks
Teams will have two options to retain possession after scoring. The first option will be a traditional onside kick attempt from the 25-yard line.
The second will be running a 4th-and-12 play from their own 33-yard line. If the team makes a first down, fantastic — it retains possession from that spot. If the team attempting the "onside" fails, however, the defense gets the ball wherever the offense is downed.
Overtime
Overtime will be a shootout in which each team\'s offense will alternate plays against the opposing defense from the two-yard line. Each team will run a total of three plays, and each successful scoring attempt will receive two points. The team with the most points after each team has run its three plays wins.
If the score is tied after each team runs three plays, the subsequent attempts become sudden death until a winner is declared.
Two forward passes
Offenses will be allowed to throw two forward passes behind the line of scrimmage, expanding teams\' playbooks while adding even more excitement and trick-play potential to games.
Other rules changes
Instant replay: Each coach will be allowed one replay challenge. Replay Command at FOX Sports Control Center in Los Angeles will make all replay decisions, meaning that one replay crew will make all the decisions. This will ensure accurate, consistent, and faster rulings.
USFL Replay Command will have the authority to overrule incorrect personal foul calls, including roughing the passer, hits on defenseless players, face-mask penalties, horse-collars, and more. USFL Replay Command will also be responsible for determining whether the act of pass interference is obviously intentional when it occurs 15 yards beyond the line of scrimmage (see below).
Defensive pass interference: The penalty for defensive pass interference will mirror the NCAA rule, with exceptions. Defensive pass interference will be a spot foul if it occurs less than 15 yards from the line of scrimmage, but it is a 15-yard penalty if the spot of the foul is beyond 15 yards. The goal is to decrease the punitive nature of defensive pass interference penalties.
However, a defender intentionally tackling a receiver beyond 15 yards past the line of scrimmage would be a spot foul.
Offensive pass interference: If a pass does not cross the line of scrimmage, there can be no penalty for either offensive pass interference or ineligible player downfield. This rule change opens up the offense without undermining defense and forgoes punishment for infractions unrelated to the play
Kickoffs: All kickoffs will be from the 25-yard line. No kicking team member may line up any further back than one yard, while the receiving team must have a minimum of eight players in the set-up zone between their 35- and 45-yard lines. After a kickoff travels 20 yards, the first touch must be by the receiving team. If an untouched kick becomes dead, the ball belongs to the receiving team at that spot.

If the game lands on 7 points, then the game is a “PUSH” and will result in “NO ACTION”.
Football Totals (Over/Under)
This is a wager on the combined scores (total) of both teams in a game.
If you place a wager for UNDER 38, the combined total score of both teams must fall UNDER 38 pts.

BASEBALL RULES
Official Game Time
Winners and Losers are official after 5 innings of play unless the home team is leading after 4 ½ innings. If a game is called or suspended, the score after the last full inning determines the winner. If the home team scores to tie - or takes the lead in the bottom half of the inning— the score at the time the game is called determines the winner. Monies will be refunded if the home team ties the game and it is then suspended. Events will not carry over to the following day (unless otherwise specified). WagerSpirit does not recognize suspended games, protests, overturned decisions, etc. for wagering purposes.
When wagering on the total runs (over/under) the game must go 9 innings (8 ½ if the home team is ahead) to have action. Wagers on total runs will be refunded if a pitcher change occurs prior to both listed pitchers throwing at least one pitch. Rules for the run line wagers are the same as those for baseball totals.
Pitcher Selection
Baseball wagers will be accepted in the following manner:
Action: Team against team, regardless of the starting pitcher. "Action" wagers will be computed by the opening price with the new pitcher. A pitcher is deemed a starting pitcher after throwing one pitch.
One specified pitcher: A wager where you pick only 1 pitcher and do not care who the other starting pitcher is. The pitcher you list MUST start in order for your wager to have “Action”.
Both specified pitchers (listed): If starting pitchers are not exactly as listed on wagering display board and/or your ticket, your wager will be deemed "no action".
Note: If there is a pitching change prior to the game, money odds may be adjusted. If one scheduled pitcher starts against any unscheduled pitcher, "action" wagers will be computed by the opening price with the new pitcher. A pitcher is deemed a starting pitcher after throwing one pitch.
Baseball Props
- 1st 5 Innings:
When wagering on 5 inning games both listed pitchers must start. In case of a pitching change all wagers will be no action. If both teams are tied on the side, wagers on sides will be considered a push and the wagers on the total will have action. In order for all wagers to have action both teams must bat 5 complete innings.
- Player Matchups:

Wagering on Baseball
Money Line Wagering
Wagering on baseball is done by risking more money than the win amount on favorites (Mets) or risking less to win more on dogs or underdogs (teams not favored to win).
Example:
If you wager on the Mets -140 you lay $140 to win $100.
If you wager on the Reds +120 you lay $100 to win $120.
Totals Over/Under ( This wager is ALWAYS “ Listed Pitchers”)
There is a standard 20 cent line.
Example:
Mets |
7 over |
-120 |
|
7 under |
Even Money |
If you take the Mets over 7 runs you lay $120 to win $100.
If you take the Reds under 7 you lay $100 to win $100 (even money).
The team doesn\'t matter. You are only wagering on the total runs of the game.
Run Line Wagering ( This wager is ALWAYS “ Listed Pitchers”)
A baseball Run Line wager is a combination of the point spread and the money line. The team wagered on must win by the point spread while the amount wagered is determined by the money line odds.
Example:
Braves |
-1 1/2 +130 |
Pirates |
+1 1/2 -150 |
If you wager on the Braves you must win by 2 or more runs. You would lay $100 to win $130.
If you wager on the Pirates they cannot lose by 2 or more runs. You would lay $150 to win $100.
