How would this bet be graded?

In hockey or football if one were to wager on the money line, and the game ends in a TIE....how is the bet graded?

notjing wrong with asking questions were all here to learn. but after a year and almost 4000 posts you should know the answer to that.. I wonder if you ever even really bet. []





[] = square

funny, you must be friends with noreaga. the two of you make Ace Ventura look like a genius detective. how many times are you guys gonna say i don't actually gamble? i find that very funny. why would i hang around a forum if i didn't? i just don't get it.

anyways, if you must know, i posted the question because it was an argument between a friend of mine and myself. i knew the answer to the question but he insisted i was wrong so he agreed i would post the question here (with no refrence to what side i was on, as he thinks because i post here you guys would have sided with me....guess he doesnt know about park city and noreaga)

Thank you PCR. Other lurkers out there should take this as a caution when reading posts that just because someone has thousands of posts doesnt mean he is knowledgeable in the world of sports betting.

So if your friend believes that pushes lose why didn't you say "I guess you're right" and offer to book his action.

If your friend believes that pushes win or return a half win then ask if he'll take your action.

So what was your friend's misconception?

Edit: I've just realised that hockey and soccer (particularly at European books) are offered as 3 way bets. Ties always lose since there is the option to bet a tie. Perhaps this was the basis of your disagreement.

Anyone ever seen a draw bet offered by a book in hockey? You know like soccer and boxing. I have not, just got me wondering.

Sherman, I consider you a friend ( in the on-line sense). Asking this basic question ( even though you knew the answer) makes you look bad, what would you expect ?

If Roxy gurl asked the same, Pete rose would fry her ass !

A little more understanding on everybody's part can't hurt !

We should be able to answer a question ( we are supposed to be experienced), without jumping someone's ass !

If Roxy wants to cross the border into Mexico to make small bets, I'm over it !, maybe she buys stuff in Mexico and sells it on E-bay.

I would have to consider it inefficient, that is crossing an international border to place a small bet, but to each her own. I'm not supposed to sign my posts anymore.

If the book offers the draw option (3-way money line) you will lose the bet if you didn't bet the draw (Centrebet of the top of my head has 3-way money lines).

If the book only offers 2-way money-lines, your bet is a push.

You are changing the parameters here, the answer is push.

and I would consider you a friend also, but Doug J, I really am not worried about "looking bad" here. and should there come a day when i ask a simple question because I don't know the answer to it, so be it.
