Proline / Sports betting question: How does over/under work?

[tfcmasta97]

Let's say the over/under of a game is 44. You would pick whether you think the two teams total scores added up are going to be over or under that number.

skrilla is right.

say the O/U for a hockey game is 6.5. if you bet under and they score 6 goals, you win the bet. if they score 7, you lose, and so on.

by the way, if you end up winning on a ticket, you're good or real lucky. i've won twice in about 5 years in hockey - it's nearly impossible to predict.

ie. Atlanta winning in Dallas last night (Turco is out, but still...)

Yeah the O/U is a tough one to predict in Hockey, much easier in football IMO
