Some new bettors have come across the term Prop Betting for sports, but they are not quite sure what it is. Pressmybet takes pride informing its loyal customers to what exactly they are betting on. Prop Betting on sports is essentially throwing down bets on how certain players or teams perform during the game. These bets continue to gain popularity with sports betting. Online Sportsbooks truly offer everything on Prop Betting from yards to points. They also offer individual player prop bets if you want to select a player and see how well they do against their competition.

Here are a few examples on of the types of Prop Bets and how they work. Let us take a look at the Washington Wizards and Atlanta Hawks Basketball game. #1. First team to score. (Wash. or Atl.) #2. First team to score 10. (Wash. or Atl.) #3. First team to score 20. (Wash. or Atl.) #4. Total team points at halftime (Wash. & Atl. total 30-35, 35-40, 40-45, 45-50, 50+) #5. Team total margin of victory (Wash. or Atl. Win by 10-15, 15-20, 20-25, 25+). On the sports books, you would see very similar bets for Football games except the numbers involved would be much lower. All these bets have different odds depending on stats, streaks, and a few other factors. Overall these are not the easiest bets but they do pay out if called correctly.

For individual player Proposition Bets, they mostly focus on the main players on the team such as the big scorer or the quarterback. For Tom Brady you would see bets like #1. How many yards will Tom Brady throw this game? (Less than 100, 100-150, 150-200, 200-250, 250-300, 300+). #2. How many interceptions will Tom Brady have? (0, 1, 2, 3+). #3. How many touchdowns will Tom Brady have? (0, 1, 2, 3+). For Cadillac Williams you would see bets like #1. How many yards will Cadillac Williams run this game? (Less than 50, 50-60, 60-70, 70+). #2. How many touchdowns will Cadillac Williams have (0, 1, 2, 3+). For a basketball player you will see bet similar to this. Total Points and Assist for Devin Harris (Over/under 28). Total Points and Rebounds for Dwight Howard (Over/under 30). You probably have a good idea how prop bets work now. Betting Props are not the easiest to call, because you never exactly know how a player or team will play. I would say a good tip is to look at the numbers and stats. When you have a high powered offense going against a slow defense you can expect more numbers offensively. This is especially true for player bets. A quarterback is bound to throw a lot more touchdowns if he is going against a weak defense. Basketball players are the same way. Look at the match ups and compare and contrast for good measure.
