What dont you get.
Its pretty simple
Team A is playing Team B.
Team A is -7
Team B is +7
Lets say i take Team B and put my money on them.
Now lets say the final score is Team A 93 and Team B 98.
Since Team B wins, i win the bet and get paid.
Now lets sai the score is Team A 98 and Team B 93.
This is where that +/- 7 comes in play.
Since i took Team B +7, i get to add 7 to my score, think of it as a handicapp. It avoids betters from always picking the better team and the favorite to win.
I know add 7 to my score making it 100, and i also win.
Thats the basic straight bet. There is a lot more, but that is what the +/- means.
