Sports betting Tutorial
How to get started with sportsbook?
1) REGISTRATION
- Go to a bookies home-page and registration at the bookmaker of your choice
- To be able to place a bet you need to register an account first
- mostly you can find a REGISTER link at the top of the bookmakers site
- fill in your data and click on register
- after some seconds you will receive an email with (in most cases) a confirmation link – click it and enter your account
- choose a deposit method and put money on your betting account to be able to place a bet (some bookmakers allow you to play for free to test a sportsbook)
- ATTENTION: watch out for SIGNUP BONUS OFFER (mostly available only for new customers at nearly all bookmakers – betting bonus informations)
- Finished all this? – Now you can start to play!
2) CHOOSE SPORT/LEAGUE
- Choose a sport of your choice from the betting offer (at some sites you have to click through to Sportsbook page first – e.g. at william hill) – find it mostly on the left hand side
- click on your favourite sport – e.g. fooball and you will find a selection of matches to bet on
Classical bets: 1×2
1 = win for the home team
x or 0 = draw
2 = win for the away team
- Find "more bets" mostly on the right side of a particular sport event
Betting odds explanation: European vs. english odds
European odd
2.15 = win 21.5 with stake of 10
English odd
1/5 = win 12 with stake of 10
6/4 = win 25 with stake of 10
7/2 = win 45 with stake of 10
3) CHOOSE A BET
- Search for your favourite match/sport event, Footabll league etc

4) BETTING SLIP
- Your personal betting slip shows you the sport events/matches you have chosen to bet
- Mostly you can choose between a single-bet, a system-bet or multiple-bets
- Placing a single bet means you bet only on one match – multiple-bets are combinations of bets and the odds are multiplied (if you lose one of them the whole bet is lost)

- If you are happy with your choice just confirm your bet(s) – if not "go back" and take a different selection or different stake
5) CONFIRMATION OF BET
- After your confirmation your bet has been placed
- Optionally you can print out a your betting slip and take a look at current bets at your account
- Your bets will be settled shortly after an event/match and credited on your account
