How to place a basketball bet

  1. Register, verify your account and deposit at least €10.
  2. Open the Sports section and choose Basketball.
  3. Select a game and a market and add it to your bet slip.
  4. Enter your stake, check the potential return and confirm.

With a spread bet, the margin matters as well as the winner, so read the line carefully. Check whether a market includes overtime before you bet.

Live betting basics

Scores change constantly in basketball, and runs of points can swing prices within minutes. Markets may be suspended during timeouts or after key moments. Decide how much you are willing to stake before tipoff, avoid reacting to every swing, and keep in mind that live markets are not available for every game.
