Help with Euro 2012 line.....

ProPokerPlayer · Jun 19, 2012

If this answer is obvious please cut me some slack, i just woke up and only through a half cup of coffee. I got a note on FB telling me there is a good value play on a Euro 2012 game tonight.
I ck the lines ...on the point spread the team is Pick +180 but on the moneyline they are +320. Its a tourny game that i assume cant end in a tie so are not the spread and the moneyline the same thing??? I should be on the +320 right?
I gotta be missing something here but i know nothing about these games......Thxxx

+180 means if they tie you get your money back (in regulation). +320 means they have to win in regulation and if they tie you don't get your money back

There is probably another bet (or maybe not) where you can pick them to advance, meaning if they win in OT or a shootout you would still win).

there is no ot in this round, it goes to tiebreakers like goal differential and what not.

so the money line is to win in regulation (90 mins + injury time) and the other is a draw no bet line where you get a refund if it ends tied.

in the next round starting up tomorrow (believe) games can go to ot, bc its a knockout stage. again ml's are in regulation, unless you do a prop bet that says to advance
