Sports Betting Options at JeffBet
At JeffBet, you can place many different wagers at our online sports betting site, including:
| Wager Type | Explained |
|---|---|
| Outright (futures) | This is a futures bet on the eventual winner of a league, event, or competition. For instance, bet on this year’s UEFA Champions League winner. |
| Match result | You can bet on a team to win or draw an upcoming match. Take the draw out of the equation by placing a “draw no bet” wager at JeffBet. |
| Handicap | This bet levels the playing field, giving the underdog a goal or point head start while handicapping the favourite. For instance, Manchester City might be given a -1.5 goal handicap against Burnley in an EPL fixture. |
| Totals (over/under) | Here, you can bet on the total number of goals or points scored in a match, rather than backing a winner. For example, bet on over or under 40.5 points being scored in an NFL match. |
| Accumulator | This hugely popular sports betting option in the UK lets you wager on three or more games at once for improved odds. All the selections need to win for your accumulator to pay out. |
| Specials (props) | You can bet on specific events within a match, rather than the outcome. For instance, bet on the first scorer in a football game or the first player to break serve in a tennis match. |
| In-play (live) | At JeffBet, you can place live betting wagers on many sports once the action is underway. In football, this could be a bet on the next player to receive a caution or the number of corners in the first half. |
| Each-way | Popular in horse racing, golf, and several other sports, an each-way bet is a bet on the winner and the person, team, or horse to finish in the top few positions. For example, you could back a horse to win the Cheltenham Gold Cup each-way and receive a payout if it finishes in the top three or four places. |
To customise your sports bets further, use our bet builder tool and assemble your selections ahead of significant events and fixtures on the sporting calendar.
How Do Sports Betting Odds Work?
Before betting on sports, you should understand how odds work. Sports betting odds indicate the likelihood of a particular outcome occurring, illustrating how much you can win if you bet on that outcome.
The shorter the odds, the more likely an event is to occur. JeffBet odds can be listed in three ways:
Fractions
Fractions are most commonly used in the UK to express profit relative to stake. For instance, if you bet on something at 5/1, you will win £5 in profit for every £1 staked. Here’s an example:
- Jon Rahm to win the US Masters – 15/1
You’re betting on the Spanish golfer to win the US Masters at Augusta National at 15/1. So, a £1 bet would return £15, while a £10 bet would return £150.
Decimals
Decimal odds are also widely used, and are actually the easiest to understand. If an event has decimal odds of 2.50, a £10 wager would return £25.00 (£15 profit plus your stake back). Here’s an example:
- Brazil to win the FIFA World Cup – 4.00
In this example, you’re backing Brazil to win the FIFA World Cup at odds of 4.00. So, if you place a £1.00 wager, you would receive £4.00 back. Increase the stake to £100, and you will win £400 if Brazil wins the famous old trophy.
American
To British punters, American odds can be confusing. The plus (+) sign is used to signify the underdog, while the minus (-) sign indicates the favourite.
Also, the positive number shows how much profit you would make on a £100 wager, while the negative number shows how much you must stake to win £100. Here’s an example:
- The Dallas Cowboys (-150) to beat the Green Bay Packers (+130)
In this NFL wager, you can bet on the Dallas Cowboys to beat the Green Bay Packers. The Cowboys are the favourites, indicated by their negative odds. This means you need to bet £150 to win £100.
If you fancy the Packers to cause an upset, a £100 bet on Green Bay would return a profit of £130.
Sports Betting Tips & Advice
Whether you’re new to online betting or have been placing sports wagers for years, here are some expert tips to consider as you make your selections:
- Manage your bankroll: Set daily, weekly, and monthly limits and don’t exceed them. Consider capping individual wagers at 1-5% of your total bankroll to keep your balance healthy for as long as possible.
- Gamble responsibly: Use our responsible gambling tools, such as deposit and loss limits, to help you gamble responsibly. You can also take time away from JeffBet or self-exclude if you need a break from online sports betting.
- Research and education are key: If you know nothing about kabbadi or handball, don’t dive headfirst into these markets. Educate yourself about the sports, leagues, and teams you’re betting on, and don’t get carried away
- Bet with your head, not your heart: If you’re a big fan of Newcastle United, don’t bet on the Magpies at JeffBet. Your heart messes with your head when it comes to sports betting, so avoid betting on your favourite teams and players.
- Use promotions to boost your bankroll: At JeffBet, we run regular promotions, giving you free bets and other offers. Terms and conditions apply. Check our promotions page frequently and access our bonuses to boost your bankroll.
- Make the most of our bet builder tool: Our bet builder tool invites you to put your research to great use, letting you build even better value when placing your sports wagers.
