Fairdeal Football

Fair Deal Sports - Betting the American Football

With the Super Bowl coming up, there’s no better day in sports and in sports gambling. It is to most the pinnacle of wagering. Personally, I like the football playoffs leading up to the big football game as far as betting goes, only because there are just more football games to parlay. However, as props go, you can’t argue with the Super Bowl. Coin flips, halftime wardrobe malfunctions, Ashlee Simpson getting booed off the stage - there’s no telling what crazy props will be up for that weekend. Here are some things to keep in mind while betting football with FairDeal.

Fair Deal Sports Straight Bets

FairDeal Sportsbook allows betting on game, half, second half, and individual quarter lines and totals. Quarter lines, however, are only offered on “marquee” matchu-ups, such as football bowl games are Monday Night Football (yeah, that Titans-Packers game was real marquee). They are put up the day of the football game, which according to FairDeal, gives you “ample” time to put money on the football game. Unless you work at a place that restricts the internet to three web pages. Then you have basically no time to put money on a six o’ clock football game, depending on the traffic.

Fair Deal Sports Point Buy Bet Off the 3

For point buys off the three point line, FairDeal will charge you an additional ten cents to whatever cost you incur from buying the points. A total of three points can be bought for NFL bets. Buying points is always an interesting thing, because it can make you look like a fool or a genius depending on the outcome. More importantly, having an extra cushion just gives you more confidence when you watch the football game.

Fair Deal Sports Wagering Limits

As with most Sportsbooks, the highest limits are usually with the NFL bets. However, with the unpredictability that comes with parity, FairDeal offers very low maximums with its money lines and parlay wagers, but allows high stakes bets on the sides. For instance, the sides can go as high as $5000 with a $2000 limit on totals, while the money line, parlays, and teasers are all stuck at the $1000 limit. Halftime sides, on the other hand, have a $3000 limit, with the halftime total being limited to $1000. What does it all mean? Parity makes FairDeal Sportsbook fear the money payout, because you never know who will win. On the flip side, parity makes the sides that much more guess work for the player, and thus FairDeal doesn’t mind bumping up the max to five grand.

Fair Deal Sports Prop Wagers

Props always make me wish for things like “Will Mike Martz create the world’s first doomsday device?” Now that would be a great movie. You could have Ryan Leaf play the vilified ex-quarterback who is terrified of footballs, who returns to stop Martz’s evil plans. Only the thing is, in the last scene he has to toss a football accurately into Martz’s doomsday device in order to save the world. And if you’ve ever seen Ryan Leaf throw, you know how this one turns out. It’s a comedy.
