In this example, we will show you how to place a bet on a CONMEBOL Copa America soccer game. First, click on “Football” from the list of sports on the left-hand side of the screen.
Next click “Table of Contents” located in the upper part of the screen followed by clicking on “Football. CONMEBOL Copa America. 2015. Chile. Group Stage”.
(3)Select your bet type
One of the easiest to understand bet types is “1X2 Full Time” (also known as Match Betting or Money Line). A 1X2 Full Time bet means you pick which team you think will either win or tie. In our example above, we have three choices by either picking 1 – Home) Chile to win, 2 – Away) Ecuador to win or X – Draw) Chile to tie Ecuador. In this example, we will pick Chile to win, therefore we will click on the odds 1.49.
※ Note the time of the match to the left of the odds displayed on the screen. The date and time are displayed per the time zone you selected when first registering at the site. To change your preferred time zone, click on “My Account” in the upper right-hand part of the screen.

From the “Other settings” screen you will be able to change your preferred time zone from the Time Zone section of the screen. To finalize the change, click the green “Save” button.
(4)Enter your bet amount
After clicking the odds that you would like to place a bet on, your bet selection will show under “Bet Slip” located on the right-hand side of the screen.
Once you enter your stake (the amount of money that you would like to bet), the amount of money (stake + profit) that would be returned to you should you win on the bet will be shown automatically under “Potential returns”.
Once you have entered the stake for your bet(s), next click the green “Place bet” button to finalize your bet(s).
※ Other Bet Options
If you refer to the screenshot below, you will see “+142” to the right of the game’s odds. If you click on this link, all available bet types (142 in this example) will be shown to you for this particular game.
Examples of other bet options
A “Double Chance” bet means that you can place one bet on two different outcomes such as 1) the home team wins or ties, 2) the away team wins or ties or 3) no tie score, which means either the home team wins or away team wins.
A “Correct Score” bet means that you can place a bet on what you think will be the final score of the game.
A “1st Half + Full Time” bet, also known as a “1st Half Result/2nd Half Result” bet, means that you can place a bet on what you think will be the correct outcome of the first half and also the final score. Using the Chile – Ecuador example, if the score at half time is 0-1 and the final score is 2-1, you would need to bet on “Ecuador (to win 1st half) + Chile (to win at Full Time)” in order to win the bet.
A “Total Goals” bet, also known as an “Over or Under” bet, means that you place a bet on the total number of goals that you think will be scored in a game. “Over 2.5” means that 3 goals or more would be a winning bet while “Under 2.5” means that 2 goals or less would be a winning bet.
