Totals wagers are more commonly referred to as an Over/Under bet. The name of the wager is interchangeable and both are used in sportsbooks and in the media. A totals bet is one of the easiest and most popular bets to make in the sportsbook. The only more popular bet is picking winners. Betting totals are available for most major professional sports such as football, basketball, baseball, and hockey.
In most cases, when wagering on a total the bettor is simply choosing whether the total number of points scored by both teams will be over or under the listed total of points to be scored. That’s it. The winner and loser of the game don’t matter in a totals bet. The only thing that matters with this kind of bet is the number of points (runs, goals, etc.) scored.
As with all of our golf betting picks here at Pickswise, all angles are considered, researched, and analyzed ahead of our Masters Picks. There is a lot to consider when making a golf pick, and even more so for the Masters Tournament, which has nuances of its own due to being played annually at the Augusta National Golf.

Before a game begins betting over or under the total points scored is usually a -110 wager. Bettors will wager $110 to win $100 for a pre-game totals bet. If bettors wager a lot more on one side of the total, the moneyline might change before the actual point total moves. At a certain point, the sportsbook will reset the total and the moneyline will move back to -110.
Here’s an example from this past Super Bowl as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated the Kansas City Chiefs, 31-9.
- The over/under, or total, for this game was 54.4 points. Bettors who wagered on the Over needed the total score to be 55 points or higher. Anything 54 points and below would have been a winner for Under bettors.
- With the Bucs having scored 31 points and the Chiefs having scored just 9 points, the total wound up being 40 points – well below the set over/under of 54.4 and a win for Under bettors.
- If the total of this game was 54.0 points and the final score added up to exactly 54 points (38-16, for example) the bet would be a “push” and bets would be refunded.
Like all kinds of sports betting options, totals bets have expanded. Betting a total is no longer only available for pre-game bets. There may be totals available for partial games (quarters or periods), individual teams, and during in-play and live wagering. A partial game total might be a wager on how many points will be scored in a certain time period. Meanwhile, in-play bets could just be an adjusted total for the entire game.
Over/under bets
Even though Totals and Over/Under may be used interchangeably for scoring, there’s another way to make Over/Under bets. An Over/Under bet can also be a proposition bet where there’s a wager made on a specific occurrence. A boxing match is a good example since scoring isn’t quite the same as the major sports:
Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor
The fight will last 9.5 rounds
- Over (-110)
- Under (-110)
Floyd Mayweather defeated Conor McGregor by technical knockout in the 10th round and over bettors won this wager. Had either fighter won the match earlier the under would have cashed since the result would have happened in the ninth round or sooner.
Betting On The Masters
Today there are Over/Under bets available for a number of sports beyond the major North American sports. Fights often have how many rounds will be complete while auto racing might have the number of laps finished by a driver. The possibilities for Over/Under wagers are prop bets are seemingly only limited by the imagination. Sportsbook operators continue to expand their betting menu with unique bets that include new Totals and Over/Under options.

The most obvious being 5 pts for 1st, 4 pts for 2nd, etc., but I was just wondering if anyone was aware of another way to do it.

Must pick a golfer from each tier. lowest accumulated score wins. can choose to throw out highest scores if you want. you can customize it however but it's the best way to do a golf pool.

Where do I find a predetermined pool with a tier system. Are there examples of this easily accessible?
And thanks everyone for your responses.

2) Select a minimum of 40 players who are participating in the Masters to include on your list. List more if you can. List the players in the order you want them selected. Make sure all of your selections are in fact playing.
3) Entry Deadline - Wednesday, April 8th, at 3:00 p.m. Please don’t wait until the last minute. Send in entries now!
4) Draft Order - Draft order to be selected by -------- the night of Wednesday, April 8th. Just trust me, I’m honest. Draft order is reversed each round. Last selection in first round gets first selection in second round.
5) Players - All players can be selected on 3 teams. We will continue to select players until someone runs out of players on their list. If you turn in less than 40 players, the committee (ME) can add players to your list to get you to 40 players so that the draft can go the maximum rounds. Please put more than 40 if possible. If a player withdraws after the Draft but BEFORE the tournament starts, we will add the next player from your list to your team.
6) Winner Determination - The low 3 players at the end of the tournament will be used for determining the winning score. If a Calcutta participant does not have 3 players make the cut, then he will be ineligible to win. In the event that all teams have 7 players on their list, then we will go with the low 4 players. In the event that we only have 4 players on each Calcutta team, then we will go with the low 2 players at the end of the tournament to determine the winning score.
