Wagering Guide and Rules
Betting on Baseball
We take Action on all MLB and College World Series events. Our Wagering Menu
for Baseball Betting includes, but is not limited to, the following Wagers:
- Moneyline wagering offered each game.
- Total wagering (over/under) offered each game.
- Run Line offered each game.
- Overnight lines offered each game.
Proposition wagers offered on selected events (Playoffs and World Series).
General Rules
- Winners and losers are official after 5 innings of play unless the home
team is leading after 4 1/2 innings.
- If a game is called or suspended, the winner is determined by the score
after the last full inning (unless the home team scores to tie, or takes the
lead in the bottom half of the inning, in which case the winner is determined
by the score at the time the game is called). Monies will be refunded if the
home team ties the game and it is then suspended.
- When wagering on total runs (over/under) the game must go 9 innings (8 1/2
if the home team is ahead) to have action.
- Wagers on total runs will be refunded if a pitcher change occurs prior to
both listed pitchers throwing at least one pitch.
- Rules for Run Line wagers are the same as those for baseball totals.
- If a game goes past nine full innings and is not completed (I.E. suspended,
curfew, rain delay, etc) there will be action on Total and Run Line wagers.
- A pitcher is deemed a starting pitcher after throwing one pitch.
- Teams must play for there to be action, all wagers included, all leagues
included.
Events will not carry over to the following day (unless otherwise specified).
Moneyline Wagers
VIP.com starts at a dime line (10 cent) on all side MLB moneyline wagers. Moneyline
wagering is simply wagering on the contest based on a given price rather than
a pointspread. The team wagered on only has to win the game to be a winner!.
Example
New York Yankees -155
Atlanta Braves +145
A player could choose one of two moneyline wagers on this matchup: Wagering on
the Yankees -155. If the Yankees win then the player is laying $155.00 to win
$100.00. Wagering on the Braves +145. If the Braves win then the player is wageering
$100.00 wins $145.00.
- Moneylines will be offered on all MLB and College World Series games.
- Side (moneyline) wagers will be accepted in the following manner:
- Action (any starting pitcher) - Team against team, regardless of the
starting pitcher.
- Listed Pitchers (both specified pitchers) - If the starting pitchers
are not exactly as listed when the "Listed" wager is placed,
your wager will be deemed "No Action".
- Bettors (your teams selected pitcher) - If the listed pitcher of your
selected team does not start the game, your wager will be deemed "No
Action".
- Opposing (opposite teams selected pitcher)-If the listed pitcher of
the opposing team does not start the game, your wager will be deemed "No
Action".
In the event there is a pitching change prior to the start of the game, all
action wagers moneyline odds may be adjusted. If one scheduled pitcher starts
against an unscheduled pitcher, "Action" wagers will be computed by
the opening price with the new pitcher.
