A total is a bet on the combined number of points or goals scored by both teams in a given match. A wager can be made on whether the sum of both team's points will be over or under a set amount. Totals are one of the most commonly placed bet types along with moneylines and spreads.
How Totals Work
The total for the following match between the Miami Dolphins and Oakland Raiders is set at 44.5. A bet on the over will win if the combined number of points scored by both teams exceeds 45. If Oakland wins the game 26-20 the combined score is 46 and the over will win.
| Team | Spread | Total | Moneyline | |
|
Miami Dolphins | +3.0 (-110) | Over 44.5 (-110) | +145 |
|
Oakland Raiders | -3.0 (-110) | Under 44.5 (-110) | -165 |
Consequently, a wager on the under will win if the combined score is under 44. If Oakland won the game by a final score of 23-20 the combined score is 43 and the under will win.
If the combined final score equals the exact total then wagers are graded a push and bets refunded. If 6 goals are scored in the match between Edmonton and Calgary then both the Over 6.0 and Under 6.0 will push.
| Team | Puck Line | Total | Moneyline | |
|
Edmonton Oilers | -1.5 (+205) | Over 6.0 (+100) | -125 |
|
Calgary Flames | +1.5 (-245) | Under 6.0 (-120) | +105 |
