    Regulation and 3 way lines

    What is the difference here?

    Boston to win in regulation is -0.5 -115
    Boston 3 way is -130

    Arent these the same exact bets...?

    NHL has overtime..... three way is the line for the end of regulation (has a tie possibility). the game will never end in a tie, but threeway bets need the team to win without OT to win, so theyre always going to pay more

    No. 3 way lines say right on them "Regulation Time Only (Overtime Not Included)." The Regulation lines say the same thing, "Regulation Time Only (Overtime Not Included)."

    Or maybe you are saying the same thing, im confused. The regulation line of -0.5 -115 would mean boston MUST win in REGULATION. The 3 way line of Bos -130 would also mean boston MUST win in regulation. Therefore, these are the same bets, but with different lines. Im not exactly sure what you are saying.

    In either scenario, if it goes to OT, the bet would lose. So, Boston MUST win in REGULATION of both of these bets.. I think the books are just screwed up or something? There are definitely the exact same bets.

    no it can not... Are you saying the 3 way can push? Because it cant. The 3 way you bet Team A, Team B, or Draw. If your team doesnt win in regulation, you lose. They wouldnt offer a "Draw" option if you could push...

    Are you sure that the -0.5 -115 line does not include OT?
