Tipster---UEFA Game

[Fred]

My book has ML at -135
If I give up -0.5 goals I get it at -125.
Would'nt this be a better bet because if its a draw I would lose any way, so why not give up a half a goal????

"Would'nt this be a better bet because if its a draw I would lose any way"

What do you mean a tie in the game? If so doesn't that count as a push in soccer? Personally I would play the ML since its only 10 cents more. That is if a push counts as a push and not a loss in soccer.

Usually soccer results are tabulated after regulation time, i.e. no overtimes or penalty kick shootouts are included.

If you bet soccer, you have to be careful. Make certain that your book does it the same as other sports. Most don't, they list one team's price, the other's price, and then the price of a draw. It's a COMPLETE RIPOFF! I bet Poland last week thinking "what are the odds it will tie?" Well, it did. You lose your bet. So be careful and know what the odds are. If a draw is listed and you don't bet it, then you lose on a tie. Tipster's games don't usually tie, so you can take comfort in that. However, all it takes is one loss on a draw (like mine), and you'll be sick for weeks.
