For example, if the underdog you like was +195, a $10 bet would return $29.50 (original $10 stake + $19.50 profit) When betting an underdog on the moneyline, you will notice that they have a positive price attached to them. For example, a $10 bet on a -180 line would return $15.56 (original $10 stake + $5.56 profit). But as I’m sure you already know you can risk any amount you are comfortable with and the payment (should you win) will be in proportion to the odds. This means that in order to profit $100 off your winning bet, you would need to risk $180 dollars. The favorite will be represented by a negative money line figure such as -180.
The moneyline bet always relates to bets of $100. This example means that Houston is the designated favorite with odds of -180 and Texas is the underdog at +195.
