FanDuel Named ‘Most Innovative Sportsbook’ by Sports Betting Journalists in New HPL Digital Sport Study

HPL Digital Sport

HPL Digital Sport, (HPLDS) a specialty division within Hot Paper Lantern focused on building brand, partnerships and user growth within the sports betting, sports technology and iGaming industry, today released its new study State of the Sportsbook: Media Scoreboard on Innovation. The study measures the opinions and perspective of the media who regularly write about the sports betting industry on topics like: which are the most innovative sports betting operators, the technological elements most likely to make the most impact in 2023 and which new entrants to the market can challenge current leaders in the space. To contrast the media’s opinions, HPLDS also interviewed more than a half-dozen sports betting industry consultants to obtain their views. “In a very nascent industry like sports betting, the media hold a very important position as the group that sits across the entire market, talking to every company and executive on topics ranging from technology, new products and services, pain points, wins and innovation. While many opinions and anecdotes have been shared on who leads the market, there has never been a definitive study completed to put quantitative and qualitative data behind these ideas,” said Ed Moed, CEO of HPL Digital Sport. “As thought leaders in the space, we felt it necessary to create this content but also accentuate this data with commentary and opinions from the most respected and visionary sports betting consultants in the industry. We hope this series of studies and our Media Scoreboard become the industry standard bearer for years to come.” When it comes to the most innovative operator, it’s FanDuel and everyone else In a weighted ranking, the media named FanDuel as the most innovative sports betting operator in a landslide, scoring 55 points. FanDuel more than doubled the points of the Second Place and Third Place finishers, PointsBet (24) and DraftKings (20), respectively. Rounding out the Top 5 list included BetMGM in Fourth Place with 9 points and Bet365, Caesars and Circa all tied for Fifth Place with 7 points. Among new sportsbooks joining the market, the media believe 2023 is Fanatics’ year to lose When choosing the most anticipated new entrant in the market, the media overwhelmingly chose Fanatics as the company they feel will have the biggest impact in sports betting. The potential Disney (ESPN)/DraftKings partnership came in second while Betr rounded out the top three. Subsequently, the media survey also felt Fanatics’ announcement to officially launch its sportsbook was the top story of 2022 showing a betting operator “revolutionizing the market and leading to potential change in 2023.” Fanatics’ launch beat out other top stories including the Disney (ESPN) teaser announcement of an upcoming strategic partnership with DraftKings, DraftKings integration with Amazon’s Thursday Night Football package and FanDuel’s announcement of its pullback of promotional dollars. The media prioritized User Experience and Engagement as the most important innovative practice in sports betting In an industry deep in an arms race to secure new and sustainable users, when given a list of the most innovative practices, the media found User Experience and Engagement to be the industry’s top priority, followed by: User Experience and Engagement Product Differentiation Development of Next Generation Technologies Fiscal Responsibility Brand Development Strategic Partnerships Influencer Deals In-play betting seen as the innovation most likely to gain momentum in 2023 In-play betting secured 42%, and the majority of the response, from the media as the innovation most likely to gain momentum in 2023. While in-play betting drew the most attention, other imminent innovations mentioned highlight the expanding betting ecosystem and capabilities users can begin to expect to gain traction in the near future including, the evolution of sports betting content (17%), universal wallet (8%) and the gamification of sports betting (8%). “The consultants we interviewed all agreed with the media’s assessment of the sports betting innovation landscape. However, adding to the media’s perspective, the consultants warned this is not the time for any company, new entrant or incumbent, to rest on their laurels,” said Moed. “Innovation isn’t about winning the moment but a mindset of continuous improvement. The companies and sportsbooks who will make moves on our Scoreboard in the future will undoubtedly have a deep focus on the end user experience, as well focusing on any real ways each can be unique in its own value proposition to sports bettors.” The State of the Sportsbook is the first industry study collecting the data and opinions of the sports betting media and the most influential industry consultants, as well. HPLDS was the first to capture the data behind needs, behaviors and wants of the emerging sports bettor in its flagship study, The State of the New Sports Bettor in 2020. In 2021, HPLDS was the first company to obtain data and insights from sports betting executives in its State of the Sports Betting Industry: User Expectations vs. Executive Realities study. The study was conducted between Jan. 12-23, 2023, leveraging the insights of more than two dozen top-tier business and sports betting trade reporters covering the business of the sports betting industry.

‘COFFEE WARS’, AN IMPACT COMEDY STARRING KATE NASH, TO BE RELEASED MARCH 2023 WITH ALL PROCEEDS GOING TO ENVIRONMENTAL & ANIMAL WELFARE CHARITIES

COFFEE WARS

COFFEE WARS, a comedy feature film that shares a powerful message about embracing a dairy-free future to improve health of the planet while bringing attention to veganism, ethical consumerism, and female entrepreneurship, will be released in March 2023 on iTunes, Amazon, and Google Play. The film stars vegan actress, feminist activist, and singer-songwriter, Kate Nash ( Powder Room, GLOW ), Derry Girls star Saoirse-Monica Jackson ( Finding You, The Flash ), British actor Toby Sebastian ( Game of Thrones, The Music of Silence), and Welsh phenom Owain Arthur (Amazon’s Power of the Rings). VegGood Films has shared that 100% of all proceeds from the film will be donated to environmental and animal welfare charities. COFFEE WARS uses the lens of comedy to shine a light on the devastating environmental impacts of dairy products and elevate plant-based alternatives as tasty, more sustainable substitutions worthy of award-winning lattes. “COFFEE WARS brings pressing issues to a global audience in a laugh-out-loud comedic way,” said Kate Nash. “It invites viewers to challenge their beliefs about what it means to be an ethical consumer and the overall environmental impacts of their purchases.” COFFEE WARS follows coffee aficionado Jo (Kate Nash), who is doing her best to stay afloat running her own coffee shop alongside a band of unpredictable colleagues, while nothing seems to be going her way. She can make a latte better than anyone, but her customers have trouble getting past one thing: her coffee shop is vegan. Drowning in debt and with everything on the line, Jo and her team of misfits gear up as the underdogs for the World Barista Championships, where she'll face her "full fat full cream" archrival Rudy (Toby Sebastian). Jo will finally have a chance to prove herself in the dairy-dominated world of coffee, and, most importantly, win a big cash prize. The donation of the film’s proceeds will be made through Foam Capital Charitable Trust, which represents the film’s financiers. “Our society simply cannot continue to consume planet-crippling dairy products, especially as plant-based alternatives, such as the ones featured in our film, are readily available, healthy for our bodies and the planet and, most importantly, delicious,” said Executive Producer Jay Karandikar of VegGood Films. “We are 100% committed to this cause and are proud that our film’s proceeds will support organizations that are working to ensure the health and sustainability of the planet.” For more information on the film, visit coffeewarsfilm.com or follow @coffeewarsfilm on Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook. ### ABOUT VEGGOOD FILMS VegGood Films was formed by impact investors and purpose-driven optimists whose shared mission is to realize a more sustainable and humane world. Led by the investors behind VegInvest and New Crop Capital and fueled by the hope that entertainment and art can facilitate sustainable behavioral change around the world, VegGood Films is dedicated to producing quality films that can entertain and inspire.

Since the official launch of its real-money game in August of 2022 for the NFL season, Swagger has exceeded growth expectations and been revenue positive. With minimal marketing spend, Swagger secured and retained thousands of users while growing its handle 380% throughout the NFL season. “At Swagger, our user base continues to grow because we found a true white space in the market for the casual player. We built our platform with the sole purpose of leveraging prop and parlay gameplay and making the experience easy, entertaining and fun for the end user, where they have a much better chance of winning something every time they play,” said Luniewski. “Our inclusion in the Accelerator Program is the first in a series of future strategic investments we’re excited to share in the coming months.

However, the tightening of the market provided an opportunity for smart founders to sharpen their positioning by providing a refreshed focus on how their products will retain users, drive revenue and why users will want to play on their platform again and again,” said Ed Moed, CEO of HPL Digital Sport. “We’ve seen Swagger’s success out of the gate in generating revenue and retaining users as a model for how startups should approach this market: smart, strategic and methodical. It’s a true testament to Ron’s previous iGaming experience and exits, as well as the exceptional team he’s put around him as to why Swagger is progressing while many startups are stalling out. A lot of strategic partners and investors are already excited to see how Swagger continues this momentum and helps lead this evolution of DFS 2.0.” For more information please visit: https://playwithswagger.com/ ABOUT SWAGGER Swagger is taking a fresh approach to fantasy sports by combining the excitement of Daily Fantasy and the stickiness of slots into a completely unique platform tailored towards sports fans who simply want a real shot at winning.

Users score points for the picks they hit, winning an instant cash prize based on their scores, not the perfect ticket. This allows the everyday sports fan to play with their gut, knowing that it’s not an all-or-nothing proposition, resulting in higher retention and satisfaction.

What Do A Birkin Bag and Bottle of Burgundy Have in Common? Spoiler: Market Beating Returns.

Vint

By David Butler In the world of fashion, one bag reigns supreme and leaves celebrities and the ultra rich fighting amongst each other for positioning and the opportunity to own one. The bag is known simply as a “Birkin'', and since its inception in 1984 this bag has experienced a meteoric rise to its current place in the fashion world. Originally sketched on a napkin during a flight from London to Paris, Jane Birkin probably never anticipated that her bags would one day start at prices of $10K USD, and be selling at auction for upwards of $380K. Accounting for inflation, one study that looked at the bags as an investment showed that they appreciated at a rate of 14.2% annually over a 35 year period, besting the S&P 500 which came in at 8.7%. These bags are so coveted, that they’ve become more than just fashion. They’ve become an investment. The same can be said of Burgundy wines. Located in the Eastern part of France, Burgundies have long been known for their complexity, elegance, and depth of flavor. Now, they’re also known for their remarkable prices. The Burgundy 150 Index (used by the London International Vintners Exchange, or Liv-ex, as a way to track performance) has gained a remarkable 105.6% over the last five years (ended January 23rd) compared to 44.4% for the S&P 500 over the same time frame. Like the Birkin is to fashion, the world of wine has a few producers that are so sought after that most of us will never get the chance to taste, let alone see a bottle. The pinnacle of Burgundy is largely considered DRC Romanée-Conti Grand Cru. A prime example of this blue-chip wine's dominance is the 2014 vintage. A single bottle can cost you more than $23,000, while the Liv-ex market value of a case has increased by nearly 63% over a five year period. Other examples include Domaine Armand Rousseau Chambertin Grand Cru, which has gained 223.16% over a five year period, or the 2018 Batard-Montrachet Grand Cru which is up 26.2% over the last 12 months. If a Birkin bag is the pinnacle of handbag investing, many of the top pinot noir from Burgundy are its counterpart. Despite the investment potential, fine wine is an asset class that can seem daunting to investors. Industry know-how is a big factor in making the right wine picks, maximizing gains, and realizing liquidity. Whether it be Hermès bags, a piece of art or wine, investing in the asset class through a professional can be more conducive to long-term results, rather than simply storing a few wines in your basement. Companies like Vint offer a solution. Their platform allows investors to invest in shares of wine through securitized offerings, rather than having to go out and purchase an entire wine collection on your own. Their team researches the market, sources the wines, stores them safely, and finds buyers when the time comes. These are steps that can be very costly. For those without industry experience, it can be difficult to understand the analysis and market dynamics that determine when to buy and sell. That’s why Vint’s in-house team of professionals use proprietary analysis and fundamental research to seek value and returns for their investors. Just don’t ask them about handbags. This article originally appeared on Benzinga here. Founded in 2019, Vint set out to financialize fine wine and spirits and create a new asset class. Vint received SEC qualification in 2021, thereby creating the first fully-transparent, efficient platform for wine, spirits, and futures collection investing. Vint offers expert-curated, thematic collections of fine wine & spirits to institutional, accredited, and non-accredited investors. Since launching, Vint has securitized and offered over $6M worth of assets. Through Q3 2022, Vint has generated returns of 28.3% for asset exits on a net annualized basis since inception. Vint is backed by leading investors Montage Ventures, MS&AD Ventures, Goat Rodeo Capital, Fintech Ventures & Slow Ventures. To learn more about Vint, visit Vint.co.

Best Horse Racing Betting Apps for IOS and Android

Acroud Media

These days more than 5 billion people carry smartphones. They use them for everything from shopping to turning on the lights in their house from halfway around the world. (A few even use them to make phone calls!). With that in mind, we have put together a list of the very best horse racing betting apps to use on mobile, both on Android and IOS There are still a billion or so PCs in use, but the average punter who wants to wager on horse racing hasn’t used a PC to place a bet since 2015. Instead, they use their smartphone - specifically, horse racing betting apps. If you are a horse racing fan and you feel like your current app isn’t up to speed, you’ll want to keep reading because, in this guide, we will profile the best mobile betting apps for horse racing. Our Picks for The Best Horse Racing Betting Apps Here are some of the best betting sites offering the best mobile betting apps out there as judged by our experts. William Hill 888 Sport Bet365 Betfred Grosvenor BetUK Mr Play Livescore Paddy Power Betfair 18+ Gambling Can Be Addictive. Please Play Responsibly. BeGambleAware GamStop Gambling Commission William Hill Mobile app Truth be told we didn't expect much when it came time to give the William Hill mobile app a whirl. Maybe it's because we've never been huge fans of the William Hill website which, in our opinion, is a bit uninspiring. But that's not the case with their mobile app. The William Hill app opens lightning fast, has a highly intuitive interface, and provides blanket coverage of horse racing in the UK, Ireland, and abroad. It’s not that the design is much different than that of the website. It just seems to translate better to the smaller screen. But beyond that, you'll find live streaming of every UK and Irish horse race as well as plenty of horse racing-related promos including extra places and their combined odds feature that allows you to select multiple possible winners in a given race and calculates the odds for you. 888 Sports Betting app When it comes to mobile apps for horse racing betting you’d be remiss not to consider the 888 Sports app. In the tradition of the best mobile betting apps, the 888 Sports app features silky-smooth navigation, intuitive design, and rock-solid security. And in the tradition of the best horse racing betting apps, you'll find live streaming, daily specials, thousands of markets every week, and daily boosts. We love the uncluttered interface that makes finding what you're after an effortless affair. We also appreciate that the only requirement to view live-streamed horse races is that you have a positive balance in your account, even if it's just a few bob. From comprehensive coverage of all the world's great horse racing events to competitive odds on local fixtures, you can't lose with the 888 Sports mobile app. bet365 mobile betting app The bet365 mobile app seems to be flying somewhat under the radar on the various app stores, not cracking the top 5 most downloaded betting apps on either the App Store or Google Play. We're not sure why because this is easily one of the best mobile sportsbook/horse racing apps on the market. The app gives you unfettered access to high-quality horse racing live streams from the UK, Ireland, France, the US, Australia, and elsewhere. The only stipulation is that you have at least 50p invested in the outcome. bet365 also offers a huge variety of race markets, one of the most extensive selections you’ll find anywhere. And their odds are always fiercely competitive. Betfred mobile app The Betfred mobile app has all the features you expect from the best horse racing betting apps these days including touch login, live streaming, and ironclad security. The live streaming we just mentioned is available to anyone with a positive balance in their account, no matter how modest, or anyone who has bet through the app in the previous 24 hours. Betfred understands how passionate horse racing fans are and make it easy as pie to find the specific race and horse you’re looking for. Betfred’s BetFinder feature is another huge plus that enables you to filter search results so that you can study specific aspects of a horse’s recent history or a trainer’s record at the racecourse in question or other statistical categories. Paddy Power mobile app Paddy Power has been making life easy for people who love to bet on the ponies for decades. A quick tour of their website will attest to how dedicated they are to providing competitive odds, copious markets, live streaming, and other amenities that facilitate betting on horse racing. They bring the same level of commitment to their mobile betting app. Everything you'll find on the website you'll also find on the app, including comprehensive live-streaming coverage, an embarrassment of riches when it comes to markets, and a slew of horse racing promos that will have punters coming back again and again. And let’s not forget that Paddy Power provides a wealth of horse racing betting tips on the app that aren’t available on the website. Betfair mobile app Betfair runs the world’s largest online betting exchange. For that reason alone it’s worth it to consider downloading their app. But the vast array of markets you’ll find here is not the only reason to get started with the Betfair mobile app. The number of outstanding features is second to none and includes touch ID for nearly instant login, access to markets and odds you won't find on the website, Live Bet alerts that notify you when live betting opportunities arise, and high-quality live streaming. You also can customise your mobile experience by way of the settings feature. If you’re tired of bland or limited horse racing betting apps the Betfair Exchange app will renew your faith in app technology. Honourable Mention We could probably include a dozen different mobile apps for horse racing betting in this section but we’re going to limit it to just one. And the lucky betting app is: William Hill mobile app The William Hill app does not have a cutting-edge user interface. It’s kind of stodgy looking. But behind that conservative facade is nearly a century of giving punters what they want regarding horse racing betting options. The William Hill mobile app is compatible with any Android or iOS device, features live streaming, and offers every feature you’ll find on their standard website. Navigation is easy to understand, their horse racing section is extensive and well-organised and they offer a plethora of promos for new and existing customers. Those include non-runner no bet offers and their innovative “first past the post” payout, whereby if your horse is the first past the post you collect, even if the horse is later disqualified. You may also like: Best betting sites Cheltenham Free bets Best mobile casinos What to Look For In Horse Racing Betting Apps What's perfect for one person may not appeal to someone else. Nonetheless, some objective criteria can still be used to determine whether you're dealing with a high-quality mobile app or something that’s not worth your time and trouble. Here are some of the things that indicate you’re dealing with high-quality horse racing betting apps. A stout welcome bonus: Might as well start at the beginning. Apps and the companies that own them can’t be separated and as such, when considering what makes a great betting app for horses you have to look beyond the technical to the practical and the beneficial. One of the most important benefits provided by great betting apps is the Welcome Bonus. Some will provide 3, 4, or even 5 times your initial deposit in Free Bets, and that’s what we want to see. Live streaming: These days any horse betting app worth its salt offers a plethora of live streaming options. At a minimum, they should provide live streaming of horse races in the UK and Ireland. But what we want to see is live streaming of races from around the world including the continent, the US, Australia, the Middle East, and elsewhere. Oh, yeah and we don’t want to have to meet some ridiculous requirements to be able to view a live stream. Intuitive navigation: Some app designers understand that the word “design” extends beyond the cosmetic to include the functional. Their apps not only look great they’re also well-organised with a navigational structure that makes sense. Things are where your brain tells you they should be, not where the designer stuck them in a hurry because he was working on a deadline. Rock-solid security: There are hundreds of thousands of hackers out there who enjoy turning businesses and lives upside down. Last year alone it’s estimated hackers cost the global economy more than 5 trillion. Any app you install on your smartphone should be from a reputable company and feature rock-solid security. Comprehensive coverage of big events: We want to see wall-to-wall coverage of the Cheltenham Festival, the Triple Crown, Royal Ascot, The Dubai World Cup, and more. There should be event-specific bonuses and promos, live streaming of all races in each event, and a multitude of markets for each race. Promos and bonuses: Punters who love the ponies will be some of your most loyal customers if you treat them right. That means offering both new and existing customers a variety of promotions and bonuses on horse racing including Extra Places, Best Odds Guaranteed, Free Bet Promos, and more. A great mobile app will also offer exclusive promos not available through the company’s website. Plenty of ways to finance your fun: When it comes to banking options the more that are available through mobile apps for horse racing and betting the better. That means debit cards, e-wallets, fast bank transfers, and more. Of course, banking options are more a function of the company that owns the app than the app itself, but as we said there's no way to separate the two. More on payment options in a moment. Notifications & updates: The best mobile betting apps will provide notifications about upcoming promos and bonuses as well as important events like Royal Ascot or the Kentucky Derby. Sometimes the planets align properly and those promos will dovetail with those big events. And if you earned some Free Bets for signing up with the site, even better. In that case, you know when the event is, and you have a related promo offer in hand and the Free Bets to wager with. A valid license: Say what? The unfortunate truth is there are more than a few bogus betting sites out there headquartered in tiny Caribbean islands and offering horse racing betting apps of dubious value. Some of these companies have only the most tenuous link to legit betting operations, while others are completely lacking a license from a reputable regulatory agency. If the company offering the app does not have a valid gambling license you should give it a pass. Outstanding customer support: A chatbot and an email address to send complaints to are not customer service and support. It's the opposite. It's telling the customers that you don't have time for them. Call us old-fashioned in this regard but we believe the best horse racing betting apps should provide a way for customers to contact a human being if they need to. It doesn’t have to be 24/7 support, but that wouldn’t hurt. More About Payment Methods To a large extent, the quality of your online horse racing betting experience will depend on smooth and secure deposits and withdrawals. To that end, not just any old payment method will do. You want to have the option to use reliable and safe banking options from proven brands. Here are some of the most reliable payment methods offered by the best mobile betting apps. Debit cards: 2 years ago the UK government made it illegal to finance gambling with credit cards. Since then debit cards have become the coin of the realm and are accepted by all reputable betting sites. If you want to take advantage of most Sign Up Offers and Free Bet Offers you’ll only be able to participate in the promos with money you deposited using a debit card. PayPal: The world seems to have a love/hate relationship with PayPal: we love the convenience, but we hate the fees. But if you don't want to use a debit card to finance your gambling activities, PayPal is a reliable option. If you want to use PayPal you'll have to check and see if your preferred app accepts it. Not all do. Skrill: Skrill is a form of e-wallet that has become extremely popular in recent years. The reasons behind that rising popularity are easy enough to appreciate: Skrill processes transactions quickly and does not hit you with enormous fees. Paysafecard: Paysafecard is a type of debit card. You purchase one of their cards with a set value to it and use it as you would a debit card. With a Paysafecard, you don't have to expose your banking details to the betting site. A lot of punters appreciate having that extra level of discretion between themselves and the betting site so a lot are opting for Paysafecards these days. Conclusion The best horse racing betting apps make it easy and fun for punters to enjoy their love of the ponies. They load fast, provide intuitive navigation, offer generous Sign-Up Bonuses, reliable ways to deposit and withdraw money and provide plenty of promos and bonuses to attract new customers and keep existing customers coming back for more.

Acroud Media

Entender cómo se calculan los momios de las apuestas y lo que realmente significan es una de las cosas más esenciales que hay que hacer.

Ventajas Alrededor de treinta deportes con momios Promociones continuas Pagos anticipados de apuestas ¿Qué son y para qué sirven los momios? En el mundo de las apuestas deportivas, las cuotas - también llamadas momios - son uno de los conceptos más esenciales. Los momios son una representación del posible beneficio que puedes obtener si una apuesta resulta a tu favor. Dicho de forma sencilla, los momios representan la probabilidad de que se produzca o no un determinado resultado; por ejemplo, en cualquier deporte, sirven para indicar la probabilidad de que un equipo gane, pierda o empate. Las representaciones más comunes de los momios son la fraccionaria, la decimal y la americana. En pocas palabras, todas ellas representan lo mismo pero utilizan diferentes representaciones numéricas. Esto no afecta a las recompensas de ninguna manera. Las probabilidades pueden presentarse en cualquiera de estos tres formatos a la hora de predecir el resultado de un acontecimiento. ¿Cómo funcionan los momios? Los momios en las apuestas deportivas funcionan así: El resultado más probable recibe el valor más bajo. El resultado menos probable recibe el valor más alto. Dicho de otro modo, la probabilidad de que ocurra el acontecimiento aumenta en proporción al valor decreciente de las probabilidades. Ponemos un ejemplo: al tener el valor más bajo en el mercado 1X2, la casa cree que el Santos Laguna ganará el partido que acabamos de describir. Ahora, echemos un vistazo a un partido en las apuestas de la Liga MX entre el Club León y el Santos Laguna. Las siguientes son las cuotas para realizar una apuesta en el 1X2: 1.55 a que el Club León se lleva la victoria. 3.60 por el Empate 5.20 a que Santos Laguna se lleva la victoria. Las probabilidades de una victoria americanista son las más bajas posibles ya que la casa de apuestas cree que este es el resultado más probable del partido. Debido a que Santos Laguna es considerado el no favorito o el equipo con menor probabilidad de victoria, su valor es mucho mayor. Tipos de momios Eche un vistazo a la información que se ofrece a continuación para comprender mejor las tres categorías principales de momios que mencionamos anteriormente: Momios americanos No es de extrañar que a la gente le guste utilizar los momios americanos en Estados Unidos. Los momios de los favoritos tienen un signo - delante, lo que indica la cantidad de dinero que hay que apostar para ganar $100. La línea de apuestas para los no favoritos tendrá un signo + delante de la suma, lo que indica el pago por una apuesta acertada de $100. No se preocupe; independientemente del equipo al que apoye, si ganan, obtendrás una devolución no sólo del dinero que apostó, sino también del dinero que representaban las cuotas. Por ejemplo, si las probabilidades son X: +585 e Y: -760, los que apuesten $100 a X ganarán $685 si su pronóstico es correcto, pero los que apuesten $100 a Y necesitarán apostar $760 para ganar $100, lo que supone un pago total de $860. Momios decimales Los momios decimales, a menudo conocidos como cuotas europeas, suelen ser fáciles de comprender. Echando un vistazo rápido a las cuotas, se verá inmediatamente quiénes son los perdedores y quiénes los favoritos. El razonamiento es sencillo: los momios muestran cada dólar ganado por cada dólar gastado, teniendo en cuenta el pago total con la apuesta en cuenta. Basta con multiplicar la cantidad apostada por la cuota para saber cuánto se puede ganar. A título ilustrativo, digamos que tenemos una apuesta como ésta: X: 4,0 e Y: 1.3. En este caso, si apostara $1 a X, ganaría $4, y si apostara a Y, ganaría $1,3. Podemos sacar la conclusión de que Y tendrá más posibilidades de ganar dado que su momio es menor. Momios fraccionarios El tipo más frecuente de probabilidades, conocidas como momios fraccionarios (o probabilidades británicas), pueden expresarse con una barra o un guión dependiendo del contexto. Por ejemplo, pueden escribirse 5/1 o 5-1 y hablarse "cinco-a-uno". Ambas opciones son correctas. Dicho esto, si tienes probabilidades de "cinco a uno" de ganar la apuesta, significa que recuperarías tu apuesta (por ejemplo, $1) y tu apuesta multiplicada por las probabilidades como ganancia (en este caso, $5), con lo que tus ganancias totales de la apuesta ascenderían a $6. Este es el caso independientemente de si ganas o pierdes la apuesta. Si tienes las probabilidades alineadas de la siguiente manera - equipo X: 10/11, equipo Y: 9/5, y equipo Z: 6/1 - es sencillo detectar que el equipo X es el favorito, mientras que los otros equipos se consideran con menos probabilidades de ganar el partido. Si se alinean estas probabilidades, es fácil concluir que el equipo X es el favorito. Por otra parte, basándose en estas probabilidades, apostar por uno de los otros dos equipos podría resultar potencialmente en una recompensa más tentadora desde el punto de vista financiero. Con razón: las probabilidades de que ganen son inferiores a la media. Dicho de otro modo, evalúe tus probabilidades de ganar antes de comprometer dinero en efectivo. ¿Cuáles son los momios de apuestas más populares? La línea de dinero, la diferencia de puntos, los totales, las apuestas de proposición y los futuros son los tipos de apuestas más frecuentes. Cada forma de apuesta se ha analizado de la siguiente manera: Apuestas Moneyline o Línea de dinero Una apuesta de Línea de dinero es una apuesta directa sobre el ganador de un próximo evento deportivo. Puedes elegir el equipo que crees que saldrá victorioso y, a continuación, realizar una apuesta de Línea de dinero a su favor. Las cuotas proporcionan una explicación del posible beneficio que se puede obtener apostando por uno u otro equipo, así como la probabilidad sugerida que tiene cada equipo de ganar. Si tu pronóstico fue acertado, recibirás una compensación una vez concluido el evento. Apuestas Spread o Diferencia de puntos Esta es la apuesta más frecuente en los partidos de baloncesto y fútbol. El equipo más dominante suele obtener un hándicap de las casas de apuestas deportivas (el favorito de la Línea de dinero). Esto produce lo que es llamado una Spread o Diferencia de puntos. Esto les permite ofrecer probabilidades comparables de que cualquiera de los dos equipos pueda cubrir la diferencia. Apuestas Over/Under o Totales Una apuesta Total, a menudo conocida como apuesta de Over/Under (más/menos), es una apuesta única que se realiza sobre si el total de goles, puntos o carreras de un partido estará por encima o por debajo de lo establecido por el corredor de apuestas antes del evento. Al apostar por el Total, lo único que preocupa al apostante es la puntuación acumulada de ambos equipos al final del partido. Apuestas Prop Bets o de Proposición Las apuestas de Proposición son apuestas que se centran en una sola faceta de un partido. Existen 3 categorías principales, que son las siguientes: apuestas al jugador, apuestas al juego y apuestas al equipo. Las apuestas de proposición son apuestas que no influyen en el resultado del partido. Por otra parte, a menudo pueden crear un Parlay del mismo partido combinando estos mercados con otros, como el Diferencial, la Línea de dinero o los Totales. Apuestas Futuras Una apuesta futura es una apuesta que se realiza para toda una temporada. Esto indica que el resultado de un solo partido no influye en la decisión. Las apuestas sobre qué club triunfará en una gran competición, como la Super Bowl o la Liga de Campeones, representan la gran mayoría de las apuestas Futuras. Los sportsbooks evaluarán el nivel de competición mostrado por cada uno de los equipos participantes. A continuación, publican probabilidades para futuras apuestas sobre las perspectivas de cada equipo de ganar la competición. El favorito, que suele ser el campeón defensor, es el primero en el orden de la lista. A medida que se desciende en la lista, las probabilidades se hacen cada vez más largas hasta llegar a las apuestas realmente arriesgadas al final de la lista. ¿Cómo calcular el pago que obtienes apostando? Las casas de apuestas deportivas determinan los momios comparando la cantidad total de dinero apostada por todos los clientes con la cantidad total que habrá que pagar. Las casas de apuestas hacen todo lo posible para garantizar que todas las partes reciban un trato justo. Esto no sólo evitará que pierdan una cantidad significativa de dinero, sino que también garantizará que los ganadores puedan ser compensados por sus esfuerzos. Por ejemplo, si nos centráramos en las probabilidades Americanas, veríamos que se expresan en unidades de 100, y que cada una tiene un signo más o menos. Están en el número 100 por el hecho de que es una proporción de 1:1, lo que indica que: Por cada $1 que apuestes, ganará $1 si tu apuesta tiene éxito. Si es positivo, entonces ganará más de $100 con una apuesta de $100 Sii es negativo, entonces necesitará apostar más de $100 para ganar $100. Veamos otro ejemplo: si suponemos que la probabilidad es del 50%, las cuotas o momios que obtendríamos como consecuencia son las siguientes: Momios Decimales = 2.00 Momios Fraccionales = 1/1 Momios Americanos = +100 Por lo tanto, si apuestas $10 con la casa de apuestas de tu elección en este momio, ellos te pagarían $20. ¿Los momios son confiables para hacer apuestas? La respuesta es sí, los momios son confiables para hacer apuestas al menos si la casa de apuestas es honesta y de fiar. Aproveche las casas de apuestas de confianza, como las mencionadas anteriormente por nuestro equipo de expertos, para asegurarse de no tener ningún problema a la hora de realizar tus apuestas en línea. Recuerde, entender las probabilidades es esencial para tener alguna posibilidad de ganar dinero al apostar en deportes. No sólo hay que ser consciente de su valor, sino también comprender los momios que intervienen y realizar un análisis de las circunstancias que rodean el suceso. FAQ | Preguntas Frecuentes ¿Qué significan los momios de las apuestas? Los momios en una apuesta son una representación numérica de la probabilidad de que se produzca un determinado jugador, equipo o acontecimiento. ¿Cuál es la diferencia entre los momios americanos, decimales y fraccionarios? Lo único que diferencia las distintas formas de momios presentados en esta página es la forma en que se indican. Es posible convertir un tipo de momio en otro y utilizarlo indistintamente. ¿Qué significa que los momios sean negativos? Cuando apuestas a momios que son negativos, indica que estás colocando tu apuesta en el equipo que te esperas que gane, pero el pago que obtendrás será menor que si hubieras apostado a una apuesta positiva. ¿Qué deportes tienen momios fijos? Las apuestas en la mayoría de los deportes, incluidos el béisbol, el fútbol, el hockey y las carreras de caballos, son momios fijos. ¿Qué son los momios de Vegas? Las apuestas deportivas en línea suelen emplear los momios de Vegas. Se emplean líneas de dinero estadounidenses, que predicen el equipo ganador, la diferencia de puntos y el número total de puntos anotados. El jugador puede apostar por la diferencia de puntos entre el resultado previsto por la casa de apuestas y el resultado real. ¿Se puede perder dinero con una apuesta ganadora? En pocas palabras, la respuesta es sí, es posible perder mientras se gana una apuesta. Esto es particularmente importante tenerlo en cuenta si está haciendo varias apuestas simultáneamente.

Open a new account, deposit a minimum of 10 using a debit card, place your first bet, and if it loses, Paddy Power will refund your account with up to 20. You might be underwhelmed by this 20 offer but here's the thing: if you lose Paddy Power doesn't issue you bet credits. Instead, they refund CASH into your account. Cash that, unlike bet credits, can be withdrawn if you wish to do so. That’s a rarity among horse racing bookmakers. New customers only. Place your FIRST bet on any football market and if it loses we will refund your stake in CASH. Max refund for this offer is £20. Only deposits made using cards will qualify for this promotion. T&Cs apply. Other Types of Horse Racing Betting Offers Extra Places Offers Typically a race with 1-4 runners will only pay out the winner. If there are 5-7 runners, bookmakers usually pay out on a first and second place. If there are more than 8 runners, they will pay out on a first, second and third place. And if there is a gigantic field of 16 or more runners, most horse racing bookmakers will pay out for first, second, third and fourth places. That’s the way it usually works. However, sportsbooks will sometimes pay out for extra places in select races. So, if the race has 5-7 runners, for instance, instead of paying out on just first and second place, the bookmaker will pay out on 3 places. Keep your eyes open for these Extra Places Offers because they tend to come and go. Best Odds Guaranteed (BOG) Best Odds Guaranteed, or BOG for short is when the bookmaker agrees to pay out at the best possible odds, regardless of what the odds are at post time. This type of offer proved to be a hit when it was first introduced, and in recent years, many punters have come to expect horse racing betting sites to offer it on all races. The concept is simple enough: if the odds on a given horse have improved since placing your bet, you have nothing to worry about. The bookmaker will pay you and everyone else, at a higher price, provided your bet wins. Many horse racing bookmakers now offer Best Odds Guaranteed for most of their horse racing slate. Many, but not all. If this type of offer interests you, it's worth it to spend a few minutes to check if the betting site you're about to sign up with offers it. Event Specials As the name implies, Event Specials are horse racing offers that coincide with the biggest racing events of the year and are not typically limited to UK-based events like the Grand National, Royal Ascot or the Cheltenham Festival. You'll almost always see event-specific offers for US Triple Crown races, The Everest in Australia and various other high-profile horse racing events from around the globe. Event Specials take many forms, including the ever-popular Best Odds Guaranteed, Non-Runner No Bet, and Bet and Get offers in the days leading up to the event that provides X amount of Free Bets that can only be used on the specific event. To ensure you don’t lose out on Event Specials, mark the dates of significant horse racing events on your calendar and check the bookmaker’s promotions page in the days leading up to the event. Bet Through the Card Offers The Bet Through the Card Offer is less common than Best Odds Guaranteed or Extra Places, but if you keep your eyes open, they do pop up occasionally and can be fun. It usually works when you open a new account with the betting site, make the offer, and place a qualifying bet on the day's first race at a specific track. You’ll then be issued Free Bets of a predetermined value that you can use on each of the day’s remaining races.

For instance, if a new customer makes their first deposit using a debit card and then places a bet that meets certain requirements, they may be awarded something like 20 or 50 in Free Bets that they can use on the site. Free Bet amounts cannot be withdrawn as cash, and once they are used to make a wager, they disappear from the account. Free Bets are often used with horse racing betting offers, with some reserved for use only on specific events. Are Free Bets really free? One would remember the adage “There’s no such thing as a free lunch” when considering Free Bets. Yes, the online sportsbook is giving you something valuable, which is good. But there are always strings attached (commonly known as T&Cs), and in all but the rarest of cases, you need to spend some money to earn your Free Bets. Despite this, Free Bets can significantly enhance the betting experience, especially for those who are not hard-core, everyday punters. For example, if you just want to place a few bets on this year’s Cheltenham Festival, getting 40 or 50 in Free Bets for a 10 investment might supply you with all the capital you need to have a great time. And who knows, you might even hit it big using one of those horse racing Free Bets. What are some typical T&Cs attached to horse racing Free Bets? As mentioned above, all Free Bets come with Terms & Conditions. So if you are comparing Free Bet offers from different betting sites, it’s useful to know each site’s T&Cs because some are less restrictive than others. Here is a fair sampling of typical Terms & Conditions for horse racing Free Bets. Deposit method: There may be a couple dozen different ways to fund an account at a betting site these days, but when snapping up those Free Bets, you’ll need to make sure your initial deposit is made using the correct payment method. These days most sites want new customers to fund their account using a debit card and will make that a condition for earning Free Bets. So, always check the applicable deposit method, or you may miss out on the Free Bet offer. Minimum stake: In most cases, the online bookmaker will impose minimum stakes on the wagers used to earn Free Bets. For instance, bookmaker X will stipulate that for a wager to qualify to earn Free Bets, it must be for at least 5, 10 or 20. Fall short of the minimum stake and say goodbye to your Free Bets. Minimum odds: To qualify to earn Free Bets, a wager will almost always need to be placed at certain minimum odds. 1/2 (1.50) are the most common minimum odds, but some betting sites impose steeper odds. The bottom line is always checking the minimum odds requirement before placing your bet. Eligible markets: Some (not all) horse racing bookmakers will restrict qualifying bets to certain markets. If you overlook this requirement and place what you expect to be your qualifying bet on a different market, you’ll lose your chance to earn those coveted Free Bets. Again, however, restricting a qualifying bet to specific markets is the exception rather than the rule. Expiration: All Free Bet credits will come with an expiration date. In most cases, it's 7 to 14 days from when they are issued. So if you place a qualifying bet and are issued horse racing Free Bets, you must make sure you use them before the expiration date, or you’ll be out of luck. Maximum winnings: The odds of someone earning a huge payout are slim, but it does happen. Therefore, online betting sites impose caps on how much you can win using a Free Bet. But not to worry, it's nothing personal. They also have maximum payouts for regular bets. How do I withdraw my Free Bets? You don’t. Horse racing Free Bets are not the same as cash. The amount of the Free Bet can only be applied to wagers on the site and can never be withdrawn as cash. Of course, if you place a wager using a Free Bet and you win, you can withdraw the winnings, although sometimes you will need to satisfy certain betting multiples before you’re allowed to withdraw those winnings. What is a betting bonus? A betting bonus is a less common type of Sign Up Offer at some online betting sites. It usually takes X amount of credit applied to your account after you make your initial deposit. As with all types of horse racing betting offers, there will be Terms & Conditions applied to any bonus, and they typically come in the form of restrictions on how it can be used. In some cases, you can only use the bonus funds on certain sports. In other cases, you may only be able to apply them to certain markets. Also, some betting sites will require you to use the entire amount on a single bet, while others will allow you to break the amount down into numerous smaller bets. Make sure you check the fine print before trying to use any betting bonus you might receive. Conclusion If you enjoy betting on horses, take advantage of one or more of the numerous horse racing betting offers currently in play at many online betting sites. From horse racing Free Bets to Event Specials, Best Odds Guaranteed and Best Money Back Offers, horse racing bookmakers strive to make your wagering efforts fun. So don’t delay. Shop around until you find some horse racing betting offers that appeal to you, and then compare them until you determine which one best suits your interests and needs. And don’t forget to pace yourself and always gamble responsibly. 18+ Gambling Can Be Addictive. Please Play Responsibly.
