Home Over 61.25

Home Over 61.25 refers to a type of sports betting where the outcome is dependent on whether the home team scores more than 61 points, including fractions.

In this scenario, let’s consider a bet size of $100 and odds of 1.95. We will examine various outcomes based on this bet.

Win

• Home team needs to score at least 62 points. When the bet wins, it indicates that the home team has scored more than 61 points. This results in a successful bet, and the bettor receives a payout based on the odds and the amount wagered.
• Possible scores: 100:68, 134:82, 83:83.
• Payout = $50 * 1.95 (odds for 61 points) + $50 * 1.95 (odds for 61.5 points) = $97.5 + $97.5 = $195.

Half Lose

• Home team scores exactly 61 points. In the case of a half loss, the home team scores exactly 61 points, which falls short by a fractional amount. While this doesn’t result in a complete loss, it also doesn’t meet the full criteria for winning the bet.
• Possible scores: 61:87, 61:40, 61:59.
• Payout = $50 * 1 (odds for 61 points) + $50 * 0 (odds for 61.5 points) = $50.

Lose

• Home team scores 60 points or less. When the bet loses, it means the home team has failed to score more than 61 points, including fractions. Consequently, the bettor does not receive any payout.
• Possible scores: 43:78, 39:24, 21:51.
• Payout = $50 * 0 (odds for 61 points) + $50 * 0 (odds for 61.5 points) = $0.
