Why is this a push? Am I missing something

[cotes17]

This was my rangers 1st period ml bet. The scored was 0-0 after the first?

i think ML is always a push if its tie

[leafs_ducks]

unless you took the handicap

We played the ML, not the -0.5...so if its tied at the end of the period you push instead of lose.

Hmm that's new to me haha ill take it though. Don't usually play the first period money lines so I'm not used to that lol thanks guys

It's kinda like the difference between a money-line and a "3way" play. When you make a 3-way play you are playing the spread essentially, when you take the ML you still can push.

Another reason I like the 1P plays!

Yeah that's awesome actually! I never knew if they tied it was a push. This was my first 1st period ml bet. I usually bet the spreads on 1stP bets lol

I plan to exploit this a lot this season!

After figuring this out same here! Lol

Because it's not footy! 2 Outcomes, not like the futbol...unless otherwise stated its "1-2" which means tie = win. Soccer lines are dif... i.e. "???Line 3-way" which is 1-x-2
