Some gamblers consider putting 150 on the table as a signal to leave the table. Others place larger bets or lay down their cards conservatively. Here’s a quick explanation as to what each number means in Moneyline betting.
200
A $2 win bet on the Moneyline with a stake of $150 will result in a $2 return to your bettor (this is also known as a $2 win bet). If the bet wins, you’ll get back $2 plus the amount of the bet. If it loses, you’ll lose $2 on the bet plus the amount of the bet.
So, if you were to bet $100 on the Moneyline, you’d win $100 (plus your $100). If the game ends in a tie, your $100 is refunded to you (Tie means No Betting) on the moneyline (MLB).
As mentioned above, some gamblers choose to avoid placing big bets or laying down their cards enthusiastically due to the anticipation of losing large amounts of money. They believe the number 200 represents a significant hit to their bankroll. So, if you’re one of these players, consider reducing your stake or leaving the table when you reach this number.
250
Continuing our Moneyline journey, a $250 win bet on the Moneyline with a $150 bettor will result in a $250 return for your money. If the bet wins, you’ll get back $250 plus the amount of the bet. If it loses, you’ll lose $250 on the bet plus the amount of the bet. So, if you were to lay down $250 on the Moneyline, you’d win $500 (plus your $250). If the game ends in a tie, your $250 is refunded to you (Tie means No Betting) on the moneyline (MLB).
Again, some gamblers consider the number 250 to be a sign to leave the table. They fear losing more than what they’re wagering and want to limit their potential losses. So, if you’re one of these players, consider placing smaller bets or staying pat on your current wager.
300
A $300 win bet on the Moneyline with a $150 bettor will result in a $300 return to your bettor (this is also know as a $300 win bet). If the win bet wins, you’ll get back $300 plus the amount of the bet. If it loses, you’ll lose $300 on the bet plus the amount of the bet.
Some players consider this to be the highest score they can attain on a single hand and place larger bets accordingly. If you’re one of these players, have fun! But, if you want to keep your bankroll intact, you should consider lowering your stake or leaving the table when you reach this number.
350
A $350 win bet on the Moneyline with a $150 bettor will result in a $350 return to your bettor (this is also known as a $350 win bet). If the win bet wins, you’ll get back $350 plus the amount of the bet. If it loses, you’ll lose $350 on the bet plus the amount of the bet. So, if you were to lay down $350 on the Moneyline, you’d win $700 (plus your $350). If the game ends in a tie, your $350 is refunded to you (Tie means No Betting) on the moneyline (MLB).
Some players feel that the number 350 represents a combination of the two previous digits (i.e., 300 plus 100). So, in a way, it’s like a $300 plus a $100 win bet.
400
