BETTING GLOSSARY

Action: A live bet or bets. (“They got a lot of action on that game.” “I have action on this game.”)

Arbitrage: Betting the same event at different sportsbooks to lock in a profit by taking advantage of other betting lines.

Bad beat: A very tough, often emotional, betting loss that is characterized by rotten luck.

Bankroll: Total capital available for betting sports.

Beard: A person who is betting someone else’s money for that other person; a messenger.

Board: A presentation of all the games and events available for betting in a sportsbook. (If wagers are taken on a game, the game is “on the board,” otherwise it is “off the board.”)

Bookmaker (or bookie): A person who accepts bets.

Buck: See “dollar.”

Buyback: The money that comes in on the underdog after a favorite is bet heavily enough to move the line.

Chalk: A favorite, usually a heavy favorite.

Chalk eaters: Bettors who like to bet big favorites (often a derogatory term).

Circled game: A game in which the sportsbook has reduced its betting limits, usually because of weather or injured players’ uncertain status.

Cover: Winning against the point spread. (A 10-point underdog that loses 20-14 has covered, or “covered the spread.”)

Dime: $1,000. (A “five-dime” bet is a $5,000 bet.)

Dime line: A betting line with a 10-cent straddle, often used in baseball. (With a dime line, if the favorite is minus 120, the underdog is plus 110.)

Dog: See “underdog.”

Dollar: $100. (If a sportsbook has a $500 maximum on a particular type of bet, you could say it’s a “five-dollar limit.”)

Exposure: The degree of risk that a sportsbook will lose money on a given game, result, or proposition. (If a book is “highly exposed” on the Cubs in World Series futures betting, it will lose a lot of money to bettors if the Cubs win the World Series.)

Fade: To take the opposite side of another bettor’s wager or to accept that bet yourself.

Favorite: A team (or player), according to the odds, is the more substantial or most decisive in a given match-up. Also, it is regarded as such by the betting public or is expected to win.

First-half betting: Wagers that involve the outcome of the first half of a game only.

Freeroll: A bet you can win or push but not lose.

Handicap: To study and research sports to make predictions on the results of upcoming games and events.

Handle: The amount of money in wagers accepted. (“The handle was down this year on the Super Bowl.”)

Hedge: To make a bet that takes the opposite side of your original position, usually to reduce risk or lock in some profit.

Hook: A half-point in the betting spread. (“I lost by the hook.”)

House: The casino, sportsbook, or bookmaker.

Layoff: A type of wager made by one bookmaker with another, often larger, a bookmaker to balance action or reduce risk.

Match-up proposition: A betting option that pits two players against one another in a contest or event, often used in golf and auto racing wagering.

Middle: A situation in which you bet both sides in a game and win both bets due to favorable line moves. (Example: Bet a football favorite at minus 2 ½, then bet the underdog at plus 3 ½ at another book or later in the week. If the choice wins by precisely 3 points, both bets win.)

Money line: The odds on a team winning a game outright, regardless of the point spread.
