Moneyline Betting Guide: How to Read +Odds, −Odds, and Shop Books

A moneyline is the simplest sports bet: pick who wins the game. No spreads, no totals — just the side.

Minus odds (−130)

Favorites carry a minus. −130 means you risk $130 to win $100 (or $6.50 to win $5).

Plus odds (+150)

Underdogs carry a plus. +150 means a $100 bet wins $150 profit ($5 → $12.50 total return).

Why shopping matters

Getting +145 instead of +130 on the same dog is free money over time. MoneyLine Bros exists to surface that gap across DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, and — when comparable — Polymarket / Kalshi.
