Answer 1

**Over/Under (Total Points):** You bet on whether the total points scored in a game will be higher or lower than a specific number, like 45 points.

**Spread (Point Spread):** It’s like a head start in a race. If a team is -7, they need to win by more than 7 points for you to win your bet. If they’re +7, they need to lose by less than 7 points or win for you to win your bet.

**Moneyline (Winning Team):** You bet on which team will win. If the team you pick wins, you get the amount of money listed in odds for every $100 you bet. For example, +200 means you win $200 for every $100 you bet if that team wins.
